Drilling in the heat of a hot July day is not the usual idea of summer fun. However, band members attended a drill camp at school during July, drilling on the hot asphalt parking lot at school. During August, while other students were tak- ing their last flings at Port A, band members were learning and then perfecting their new routines. With half time drawing near, John Radarte gears up for the performance to be given. Band members gave up much free time to be able to give a good half time performance. Precision manhmy takes iiiui ii concentration and practice. Kim Voelkel and other flag corps members understand that dur- ing the extra practices called during the summer and after school. Band 57

Because the rallies were held either right before or after school, band members performed standing instead of seated as they used to do. Even if the pep rallies were more informal, the spirit remained. Performance was the culmination of all the hard work during the week. Band members performed at all the home games and all but one of the out of town games, due to much rain and flooding.

Ms. Aleida Lugo, Raider Belie director, instructs the drill team to go over a routine once again. The time is 4:30 p.m. and the Belles have been working since 2:30p.m. The Belles and the Wranglers im- prove every week, said Ms. Lugo, who took over the drill teams this year. For the tlrst time in the history of the drill team, freshmen were allowed to try out for Raider Belles. If the girls were qualified, I didn ' t see why they couldn ' t participate as a member of Raider Belles, she said. Miss Aleida Lugo, sponsor, cheers along with the Raider Belles and Wranglers at the pep rally after school. Miss Lugo changed requirements for membership this year by allowing freshmen to try out for Raider Belles. Raider Belles: Kim Novak.
