Students' activities go beyond usual Southeast in 1986-87 had all of the usual things you would expect: classes, activities, and typical high school pas- times. We went to sports events with our friends, had parties on weekends, and studied for tests. ,All fairly normal. But what was dif- ferent from the traditional conception of highschool was the people and what they did. How we entertained ourselves anjdjQCcupied ourtime made us unique. i And. titnesla bit surprising. J K a.m. Sunday and Monday mornings. lt's not uncommon for me to have a 24-hour stretch of being awake. Once when I worked, went to a concert, and worked again, I was up for 36 hours. I was cracking some pretty funnyjokes by the end of my programj' he said. Another way people were active in their non-classroom time was through sports. Whether it was a school team, intramurals, or a community sports team, many of us devoted as much tor morel clubs at school existed in a particular area of interest. Others pursued hobbies with friends or alone. Sheep are senior jennifer Scott's passion. She has worked with sheep for nine years.Afterfeeding and taking care of them at home on her acreage, Scott entered her sheep in contests, like fairs and other shows, where she has won her share of awards. f'This year I have a show in Kansas City, where l'll be four days, and one in ,gV.E,AiQOmmgQn,kway.tQspend time, and time to Sports as to our schoolwork, Denver.
