Popcorn, ghost stories provide late-night fun for on-the-go cheerleaders Summer was a time for jobs, fun, and a lot of work when attending a camp. The Cheerleaders' Spirit Con- ference was a perfect example of this. From June 13 to 15 seniors TRACEY GRIGGS, NANCY MARTIN, RHONDA KINGSLEY and juniors AN- NETTE MARTIN, SHELLI SLIMNER, and ERIN WILEY learned new cheers and chants, listened to seminars on school spirit, and received evalua- tions from judges. Doing well in their evaluations, the cheerleaders received a spirit stick, a helping hands' award, three blue rib- bons, one red ribbon, and one white ribbon. When they had some free time to themselves, the girls watched Grease and dressed up in 50's outfits S for the occasion, at popcorn, and told ghost stories. To raise money for the year, the cheerleaders had a park dance with the Country Connection playing. They also sold pom pon shakers dur- ing football season and sold flowers, enabling students to give them to their favorite Sweethearts on Valen- tine's Day.

CD IZ ...1 D5 3 UD QC d Wre stling Cheerleaders NCA Cheerleading Camp presents Junior Varsity squad with spirit stick During the month of June, the Ju- nior Varsity cheerleaders attended National Cheerleading Association QNCAQ cheerleading camp at Baker University, Baldwin, Kansas. The squad left Silver Lake early Thursday morning on June 4 with the good luck cake from the Varsity cheerleaders. Their first stop was Washburn University to pick up Te- resa Deiterg she went as a sponsor for the girls. The second stop was Sut- ton's in Topeka to eat donutsg then it was on to Baldwin City. When the girls arrived at Baker University, they hung up all their posters to show spirit. They learned cheers and chants the rest of the day and got settled into their rooms. That evening they were evaluated on the cheers they had learned. They re- ceived a red ribbon and two blue rib- bons. They also received a spirit stick for having an abundance of spirit throughout the day. On the fourth and final day of camp, the girls were awarded with another blue ribbon and a super squad ribbon. The squad also received a spirit stick to take home with them. This was the first time for a Junior Varsity squad to take home a spirit stick. Along with all their practices the Junior Varsity squad had a car wash and a dance at the park. They also had a garage sale along with a bake JU sale to earn money. Being the smallest squad at cheer- leading camp, the wrestling cheer- cheerleaders received a ribbon for the most improved squad. They at- tended an International Cheerleading Foundation camp at Salina in August which lasted four full days. Through the summer the girls worked hard to pay for their uni- forms and to go to camp. They had a car wash at Hamilton's and two dances at the Silver Lake park. They also gathered unwanted things and had a garage sale. A suggestion from the wrestling cheerleaders was to have the three freshman cheerleaders attend camp with them because all the other squads at camp had more than three people per squad. The wrestling cheerleaders appre- ciate being included in the fight song and two-bits with the rest of the cheerleaders, said JODI CAIRNS. ill Sophomore MARY DEKAT does a cheer along with the other Junior Varsity cheer- leaders to help the basketball team come from behind. iPhoto by ANNETTE MARTINJ Q25 With the smiles and the fun the Junior Varsity cheerleaders are having, they do a stunt to the cheer lt's a cinch. iPhoto by NANCY MARTINY' 133 At the regional wrestling meet at Sa- betha, the wrestling cheerleaders, junior JU- LIE BRUNNER and seniors JODI CAIRNS and LINDI SWAIN cheer the wrestler on for a pin. iPhoto by MICHAEL ESCALANTEJ IOR VARSIT -l IGB!
