As students took part in the various activities such as_ athletic events and club activities which help to promote school spirit. The enthusi- astic crowd cheered for the team un- der all circumstances. The fans be- came so involved that they even joined efforts with the cheerleaders to sup- port the teams. STUDENT LIFE The enthusiasm was not only shown in sports but also in the S.C.A.’s annu- al slave sale. Under the leadership of Coach Bill Schindler the S.C.A. was able to raise over $80.00 from this event. Another concern brought up by many students this year was the idea of parking. Where many students were used to parking anywhere, they were now assigned a certain parking space. A leisure part of the day was lunch. It was the one period where students were able to gossip and take a break from their classes. All in all the year was very positive. As the students brought life and enthu- siasm into the activities this is how we echoed success in academics, sports, and clubs. Junior Tammy Belsky and Sophomore Terri Jordan take time out for lunch. School Spirit at S.D.H.S. is a big part of the winning tradition. School spirit echoes in the background of the parking lot where the press box stands tall and proud. Football cheerleaders are friends in and out of school. During the girls’ basketball games, the fans joined efforts with the cheerleaders to support the team. Mr. Schindler takes charge at the annual slave sale.

We hope you had a nice summer and are ready to start 1988 with a bang! As for the faculty at jolly S.D.H.S., we're going to have a hard time matching last year’s gang. 1987 presented a big change in leadership with former Assistant Principal Pamela K. Ungar stepping into the lead and Dennis Strole comming into power as the new Assistant Principal. And what about those new teachers ... lets give a round of applause to Mr. Noel Bing, Ms. Sharon Mueller, Mr. Todd Banks, Mr. Gene Lilly, Mrs. Sharon Kern, Mrs. Constance Harrington, and Mrs. Susan Davis. And lets go ahead and thank all the wonderful teachers at S.D.H.S. and welcome them back to school this year. We appreciate all the extras that our teachers do for us, and would like to mention a few: Mrs. Lynn McClain took 3 enthusiastic students to Mexico last summer; Mrs. Elaine Almarode and Mrs. Jennifer Rexrode helped sponser the third annual “Thanksgiving in New York” trip; Coach Ron Ball organized the senior trip; Mr. Sam Alexander pre- pared the math competitors, who were triumphant in winning the 4th consecu- tive contest held at J.M.U. and Mrs. Judy Houser and her team put together a successful forensics season. Mr. Jamie Taylor smiles as the tuba plays on. Mr. Harvey Almarode gives Susan Calder support as Mr. Schindler tries to sell them as slaves. “For God's sake’, says chemistry and Physics teacher, Doc Miller, (| never was more serious) don't make me ridiculous anymore by terming me gentle-hearted in print.” No woman can feel herself alone, the while she bravely stands Between the best friends ever known Her two good honest hands.

As students rush from class to class, the smell of fresh bread filters through the hall- ways, and they are reminded of the cafeteria’s efforts to pro- vide eclectic lunches. These new breakfast selection, sub bar, and taco bar are only a few, offering a nutritious vari- ety to tempt any palate. Under the supervision of manager Della Cork, and assis- tant manager Judy Wagner, caf- eteria workers Phyllis Britt, Bet- ty Byrd, Sally Kanagy, Drema Drumheller, and Joan Page per- form their assigned duties with precision teamwork. Do the ladies of the cafeteria work hard? “You bet your cinnamon buns they do!!!” exclaims Joan Page.

Yes, it was that time of year again. But instead to Faculty Follies, SDHS changed to a new pace with a Variety Show. The show was free for students, faculty, and community members to enter. Prizes were awarded for first, second, and third places. As the night pro- gressed the audience pecked their fa- vorites and the judges picked their own. Todd Snead captured first place Becky and Mark Woodworth clown out ‘‘The Giving Tree,’ a story with a parable. Ben Wood and Matt Coleman sing a Pink Floyd favorite. for playing Maleguena, a Spanish melo- dy. Kathryn Rhodes landed second place for singing F Shadai. And third place was taken by Calvary United Methodist Church for its outstanding handbell choir. Even though everyone didn’t come out winners the night was injoyed by all. It proved to be a new experience and upbeat pace. BY: TONYA EAVEY Valley Vocational Technical Center is a school in which students prepare for their future careers. It offers op- portunities such as carpentry, cosme- tology, drafting and design, data pro- cessing, auto mechanics, secretarial administration, health assistant, horti- culture and many more. These classes help enable students to learn the nec- essary Skills for a career. Students are from different schools. In addition to Stuarts Draft, students from all Augusta County schools at- Prowling Toward A Career tend along with Waynesboro and Lee High. Most students like the fact that students from other schools attend tech. It gives them a chance to make new friends. The classes at tech are important also. They offer the opportu- nity to expand students skill in their career goals. The classes really help students get jobs after school. In some classes you can go to a job while you're still in school your senior year. By: Traci Gabler Seniors Rhonda Hoover and Tonya Bartley work fast and accurate at their adding machines.

Fellow classmates Re- nee Ezrin focused instead on the nega- tive aspect of freshman status: ‘‘I hate being low man on the totem pole.” Another aspect of freshmanitis came from Craig Gordon “Ug, having a brother (Steve) that’s a senior — that's the pits!” Being a novice in high school also has it’s high points. For Suzie Dickin- son, high school means more free- dom.” The school year of 1987-1988 brought many new faces to a new environment at Stuarts Draft High. The freshman had great expectations of high school life but there were many new phases to go through. They had to learn to survive as there were many mountains to climb, places to explore, and techniques to be mastered. The new lower classmen began their excit- ing adventure as young and immature, but they stuck together to form their own territory in cougar country. There were big ideas, opinions, and styles and came to be accepted as full fledged cougars. It's great because you have more free- dom! — Suzie Dickinson 29 Cami Aleshevich Johna Allen James Anderson Gary Argenbright Tina Argenbright Nikki Armentrout Tammy Balser Scott Bell David Benson Sara Benson Monica Blair Jennifer Bolton Kevin Branch Anita Brenneman Monica Broome Tammy Brown Matthew Broyles Ronald Bryan Sherry Buchanan Kalan Bunch Dana Campbell Debbie Campbell Forrest Campbell Jennifer Campbell Catherine Canipe Shawn Capriotti Darrell Carr Sherry Carr Yvette Massnie looks bewildered as she can’t seem to find her notes from yesterday.

Stuarts Draft High School had lots of enthusi- asm for the freshmen to look forward to finding their way through the halls, fumbling books and lockers, and arriving to class tardy were many of the first struggles to be accomplished once they succeeded that, the tricks and jokes of the upper classmen were yet to be faced. Then as one year progressed, there were many more activities to participate in. Sports, spirit week, and the clubs of activity day were just a few of the numerous things going on here, though CPR was another important one. At this time, one freshmen began to realize one true art of saving lives. After accommplishing the many things re- quired to make it through high school life, the lower classmen became one big unity in their rally to cheer the teams to victory. It took each and every person with their own unique sense of spirit to bring our school to be as special as it is. With the help of Stuarts Draft High, the dreams that were imagined became fulfilled.

Good job Kim! They pull out the shades and turn up the heat with one of their spring hits ‘Surfin’ USA’. Lots of time and effort is put into decorations for these cooncerts; balloons, lights, backdrops, stage decarations, and other props are fun to do, but take some muscle. Famous and domestic, these students let their talents shine. Nh 40 Joe Young and Travis Hoy, senior members of the choir, hit it big with solos for the Fall Show.

Now we're not talkin’ about just some great singin’, here-we're talkin’ about some major moves. We're also talkin’ about lots of great fun. Well, just look at the faces of these young vocalists! You know they’re havin’ fun! We started it out all the way back in the spring with a picnic and scavenger hunt for new members. | mean, look at the cooks we've got — you know it was great! Food got involved in our alumnae concert and our mystery dinner, too. How about those shows? For your listening pleasure we presented some goldie oldies, some modern pop, some christian hip, and some rollin’ rock. We even hit the waves with some groovin’ dances and tried some Broadway with very sophisticated choreography. Yeah you know it! We're just a cool bunch of kids with some hot voices! Beth Swinger, Leigh Ann Cohron, Angie Slabaugh, Lynn Hering, Todd Snead, Mike Bryant, Penny Shumate, LaDena Hall, Amy Harper, Katerine Rhodes, and Becky Woodworth qualified for Regional choir, which performed in February. This was the largest group ever that we've taken to this annual event! And how about all those soloist and duets, and trios? What bravery! What talent! We awed you in our new sequence and fuschia outfits. We stunned you in our beautiful red dresses and white suit jackets! We entertained you in various other costumes too! We carried you all through the year with our last note carried on graduation night and we enjoyed it. Good luck to the Concert Choir of 1988-89! Who can help but have a good time with a couple of goofy back-ups like Dale Knott and Paul Gum. 41 Sophomore representatives Craig Adams and Nicky Hurtt rode a float with the freshman representatives.

Once again they walked away with the first prize for their Homecoming float. The class of 90 also showed their spirit by “screaming their brains out at the pep rallies, attending football and basket- ball games and participating in athlet- ics. Many sophomores were basketball players, football players, and cheer- leaders. But the sophomores found that life is not all fun and games. They had to spend a lot of time studying too! Seniors look forward to graduating, juniors look forward to class rings, freshman look forward to being sopho- mores. So what do sophomores look forward to? DRIVER’S LICENSE!!! After enduring Mrs. Jaon Brown's driver's ed class and proving to Mr. Arnie Fitzger- ald that they really could drive, the sophomores were ready to get their license! Finally freedom at last ... so they thought. The sophomore class officers were as follows: President Jill Rau, Vice President, Terri Jordan, Secretary, Lu- cinda Strothers, Treasurer, Missy Belsky, and reporter, Christine Woront- zoff. 43 Sophomore Spirit on the Prowl Jerry Falls studies hard during Health.

The Class of 1990 Roars Most of the sophomores had definite opinions about things like music, movies, television, and college. We polled them and got the following results. The sophomores favorite movies were Dirty Dancin’, Top Gun, Stand By Me, and Jumpin’ Jack Flash. Their favorite groups (or singers) were White Snake, Bon Jovi and Hank Wil- liams, Jr. Sophomores enjoy watching The Cosby Show, ALF, Moonlighting, and Growing Pains. The sophomores dreamed of owning Corvettes, Jeeps, and GT Mustangs. Most of the sophomores said they didn’t plan to attend college but, the ones who were going said they'd go to Blue Ridge, James Madison University, or North Carolina State. By: Shannon Bodkin and Tonya Eavey 51 52 How important is life to you? Is it important enough to wear your seatbelt? Our government seemed to think so because on January lst they made it a law. These ques- tions however, can only be pon- dered and executed by you! It was a cold Thursday morning and Lisa was running late. Her brother, Jerry, called up the stairs to her, “Lisa, hurry up!” “I'm coming’, Lisa replied. She grabbed her coat and was out the door. “Be careful, it doesn’t look good out’, their mother called to them. Lisa, having her mind on a prob- lem forgot to fasten her seatbealt. “Is it clear?”’, Jerry asked while Lisa looked down 608. “No, there’s a truck”, answered Lisa. The truck passed. They were about to cross the bridge when suddenly ... “Oh my God’, cried Lisa. Her Nightmare on Our Street heart pounded, her muscles. sti- fened, and her mind raced. It raced off to all those gory stories she had heard. A feeling she had never ex- perienced now bombarded her — loss of control. Jerry tried to get the car back onto the road. He had it ... but only to lose it again when the back wheels hit the gravel. Lisa saw the trees they were headed for. The car went over the bank. A tree through the engine stopped the car. A barbed wire fence kept the once classic Camero from flipping. Lisa felt her head hit the dash and then the windshield once, twice, three times. The third time she was going through but Jerry grabbed her and pulled her back. Her legs were now entangled under the dash Jerry’s were also. They both sat there in disbelief. “Are you okay?”, he asked. Lisa put her hand to her numb and swollen face. Blood was every- where. The accident flashed before her eyes. Lisa lost her strength then. She was going into shock. In the ambu- lance Jerry reached and found his sister's hand. He squeezed. ‘‘Are you alright?’’, he asked once again with fear and emptiness in his eyes. “Yes,” Lisa could barely get it out. She thought to herself that she wasn't alright. Why hadn’t she worn the seatbelt that she had heard so much about in Driver's Ed? Lisa was given a second chance but you might not be that lucky. Don’t play games with your life. If this article can save just one per- son from the pain experienced from not wearing your seatbelt then it will be worth twice the effort! Please, BUCKLE UP!!!

The time is running out on the clock. The game is nearly over. The players have given the best they can. Each player wil remember this game for it played an important part in their life. The seniors have all added points to school life. They have shared laughter, sorrow, and triumph. They were one team made up of a variety of personal- ities. They now know the meaning of Tick-Tock ot The Flock “school life’ because they have been through it together. The seniors are a special group. They have been friends, confidants, and helpers to each other throughout the years. The game is finished. The players all smile as they walk off the golden court in order to walk into the silver world. Only time will tell if they won the game or lost in the final seconds. Someone is snapping his fingers in front of your face. You are staring straight ahead not seeing anything. Have you ever been caught daydreaming like this? Just what is it that makes you forget about everything? What is it that you wonder about? | wonder about my future where I'll live, where I'll work, and who I'll marry. — Kevin Roberson | wonder what will become of me in the future. — David Coffey | wonder how long | will live. — Tammy Coffey 54 | wonder if I'll be successful and productive in society and if everything I've been through has been worthwhile. — Serena Danraj | wonder how things at college wil be. — Travis Hoy Mannerisms Politeness is something that is learned throughout the years. Knowing who to pamper and when to treat somebody special is a virtue that can make or break a relationship. these luxuries can be bestowed upon someone by simply opening entrance and car doors, pulling out the lady’s chair before a meal, or even giving her flowers. Have you ever been treated to these rare luxuries? Or are you the one who tends to be “‘old- fashioned” and treat a special lady to this type of politeness? “Guys should be old-fashioned because the girl’s comfort should come first.” — Steve Henderson “I love it when guys do things like that because it makes me feel special.’” — Lori Elmore “I've had guys open doors for me, etc. | appreciate the politeness, and | like for them at least to offer the courtesy. Most of the time, though, I'd rather do it myself. | feel Mirror Images mor comfortable.’ — Roxann Nuckols “LT open doors and pull out chairs for girls because | was brought up that way. It’s common coutesy, and | would feel different if | didn’t.” — Randy Fox “Guys should be “‘old-fashioned’’ be- cause it impresses the girl. They should keep being polite because if they don’t, the girls will drop them flat!” — Anonymous Have you ever stopped and took a good look at yourself and tried to eval- uate your inner and outer strenghts? Everyone always judges themselves on how they think they are seen by oth- ers. Each individual has a strong desire for success, honor and power. Howev- er, too often one allows his her feel- ings of themselves to be judged and based on what others think and feel. Each person is special and given their own beauty, whether it be hidden in- side or by their outward appearance. Too often, especially in our time of youth, the outward appearance is ‘‘ev- erything’’. Peers can be unknowningly cruel by judging someone's looks or first impressions. It’s often hard to feel high self-assurance with those around judging one’s social status. However, as an old cliche, how one sees them- selves is in fact how others will see them. So, the next time you see some- one for the first time and reject them for their outward appearance, take a look at their heart. Also, try to look at yourself in a new manner. You're special! _ ix te ros 3S Nera ar gh BS (art it thle td Spe Bd me. 3 55 Going Steady John and Jamie have been dating for awhile. John wants to give Jaime his class ring and date only her, Jaime, on the other hand, does not want a serious relationship at this time in her life. Does this situation sound familiar? When two people start dating, this type of disagreement can ruin an ongoing relation- ship. At the high school, a long term relationship is preferred two to one over dating. Sixty-four percent of the student body felt that a long term relationship is the best type of guy-girl friend- ships. Of that 64%, 44% of the male student body preferred long-lasting relationshp while 20% of the girls would like a serious relationshp. Senior Serena Danrej prefers a long-lasting relationship be- cause “it builds a friendship.” Senior Eric Royer expressed how he felt about a long-term relationship. “long-term relationships mean alot more. They are more enjoyable and dating around is just for kicks.” Although a relationship is preferred to dating, 17% of the guys and 15% of the girls like of date rather than get involved. Travis Hoy is one of the guys who prefers dating around. He feels that a person can learn more things by doing this. Shawnetta Woodson felt the same way, ‘Dating around gives people a chance to get to know different people and the qualities they like in a person.” Senior Randy Morris was one of the students in the 3% that like doing both. Randy said, “During the winter, | like a long-term relationship and during the summer | like to date around.” Different people prefer different things. Whether you are the type of person who falls in love easily or the type who has two dates a night, time will tap you on the shoulder and you may turn to find that special someone you have been waiting for. BY: RENEE TOLER 56 The Dating Game It's 8:15 and the doorbell rings. Her mother calls upstairs that her date has arrived. This is the night she has been waiting for. The guy she had admired for so long had finally asked her out. She only hoped the night would turn out as she had anticipated. Much to her surprise, the night ended up being a total mass confusion. Not to mention the fact that the boy of her dreams was a real loser. As many of us know, there is no such thing as the perfect guy girl or the perfect date. We have all experienced a date on ‘which, no matter how we tried, nothing seemed to go right. When asked what their worst date was, here were some replies: “We were going skiing and got to the slope and they had closed down, so we didn’t do anything.” — Sean Sprouse “We went on the mountain and were about 20 miles from Sherando. We were there for about two hours and when we got ready to leave the car wouldn’t start so we had to walk home!’’ — Nickki Burdette “The time | met this guy at the beach and we went out to dinner. He conveniently handed me the bill informing me he had no money!’’ — Shannon Bodkin “We went to Chi’s-Chi’s and | spilled taco sauce on a lady’s head. It turned out to be my girlfriend's aunt.” — Mickey Collins One Heartbeat Away Blood travels through the veins making swishing noises. There is a steady beat ... beat-beat, beat-beat, beat-beat. It not only holds blood, ves- sels, and arteries it holds many differ- ent emotions. Some people lead with their lefts, but the emotional ones lead with their hearts. They let themselves be swept up into an emotional hurricane. They can fall in love at first sight or become an enemy for life. They can feel com- passion for most anyone or they can show people with warm hearts. Some people ‘‘freeze’”’ their hearts into PARK and never shift to compassion. They are afraid of loving and losing. They know the meaning of ‘‘heart of stone” because they carve their hearts into a place where no one can enter. The heart is the holding place of many feelings and emotions. One only knows what type of heart he has by the steady beat-beat, beat-beat, beat- beat ...

Spending hours in front of the mirror is all part of the first date. The result after going out with your first date is lying in bed wondering, ‘‘Why did | ever do it?” When several students were asked about their first date, they responded by: “.. was with a guy who was engaged to another girl from another Dates school.’ — Corrina DeCamp “.. was trying to outsmart par- ents so we could go out.’ — anony- mous “... was going out with my dream date and had a car wreck in front of my grandparents house!’’ — Christy Dameron ... Was having my date ask my father if | could go out then | not asked out.’ — Renee Toler 57 EE a Student Gripes 58 Rights For All Girls sports is an activity that is growing but still needs a bit of help. Throughout the years, the variety of sports that a girl can participate in is growing, but it still does not receive the recogni- tion that it deserves. Many refuse4 to see that girls’ work just as demanding as the guys anbd that they would like to be recognized for it. Sure, maybe their games are not as physical ot as vocal but they prove to be just as exciting. The attendance at basketball games are beginning to show improvement. At certain games the crowd will occasionally be standing on it's feet cheering, but this is the seldom. To compare a girl's game to a boy’s game would be lilke comparing a horse to an elephant. Now, the vollleyball, softball, track, and tennis matches would be like comparing an ant to an elephant. The only people that you will see at those games or matches will be the parents of the participants. Only if people would come and watch they would see how much time and effort that the girls put in their activities. Things are starting to improve for the girls but they are still not what they should be. Hopefully, as the years continue they will receive everything that they deserve. BY: DANA CHITTUM One thing that students NEVER grip about is eating. Foreign language students often cooked up exotic dishes such as garlic snails in Fred Hollen’s French class, Enchiladas in Mrs. Kelly's or Mrs. McClain’s Spanish classes. Students oc- casionally served entire meals for an end of six weeks project. Whatever the occasion, from na- chos to quiche Loraine eating was a hit. Foreign language students Paul Woodard,Paul Gibson, Tony Coffey,Spencer Cross, John Drumheller, and Mike Evelsizer chow down. = Homework — it a Students spend five days s week and approximately 37.5 hours in school. They slave over textbooks and ocassionally have to spend an additional two to three hours a night doing homework. Som when the weekend finally arrives, students are ready to forget about school altogether, Yet, in some cases, students are not so fortunate. Teachers often find it in their hearts to bless students with a five to ten page report that has to include a title page, outline, bibliography, and endnotes. They cannot give students excessive time in class to work on these papers because that would take away from the learning process. They press on with the next chapter or the next list of vocabulary. They give huge quantities of homework, and if that is multiplies by six classes, then the students have no time on the weeknights to work on the paper. This means that students must take valuable time out of their weekends to use for research. Actually, they are bringing their “word” home with them, which takes some of the fun out of week- ends. If the week were made for school and the weekend for fun, why do the students have to use weekend time for work that should be done during the week? If teachers understood this and did not put such tasks upon the students shoulders, maybe the percentage of Students skipping school and cutting classes would bi greatly lowered. Noone told students that school would be easy, but noone ever told them that they would have to let school take over a major part in their lives either. So, what do you say teachers? Can't you give us a breather? BY: RENEE TOLER SSS lee How do rumors get started? There started by the jealous people, as they get mad seeing something they had and somebody else is holding . . . Stuarts Draft High School is plagued with gossip and rumors from concerns such as everyday life to personal social activities. Students and teachers do not realize it, but when one person is spreading one rumor, another person is spreading 2 rumors about him her.

The staff worked hard to meet all deadlines. This year, the yearbook class was changed from third period to first. The staff members worked hard to com- plete their spreads. However, before they could do so they ate breakfast. The staff brought all sorts of food ranging from pizza, to chili, tacos, to poptarts and chips. This helped to pro- duce new and imagnative thoughts to the 1987-88 Legacy. Also this year, the yearbook class sponsored many activities. One such activity was Donkey Basketball.

Counting the days to being Seniors, the Junior class begin to look forward to a year of fun-filled activities and new experiences. Juniors with their new driving ability became more involved in school activi- ties. Having been given more freedom, Juniors attended athletic events, along with Forensics, debates, and concerts. With the driving ability, also, came more responsibility. They had to start making decisions concerning their fu- ture. Students going to college had to take the SAT’s while everyone had to achieve good grades for work and college. Work and responsibility was not the only thing involved with Juniors. There was plenty excitement with planning and attending prom and, finally, being upper classmen.

Stu- dents go through three tough years to gain this title and then have one whole year to fight in this championship bout. Twelfth graders get the feeling of being a Senior early, at the Senior assembly where they are told of their responsibilities and to not let up. The Senior class got a late start showing their spirit as they decided to skip out on the homecoming festivities. However, they redeemed themselves later at pep rallies and also in sales. On The Final Prowl They sold senior “Cougar Country” sweatshirts and they also sold candy to finance commencement. The Sen- iors also planned to being back class night which was left out the previous year. With a few exceptions most Seniors made it to second semester before “Senioristis’” set in. When the Seniors found out their exam grades, many of them decided to take it easy and await graduation. The Senior apathy grew even greater when March came bring- ing spring weather, with the many days of school that were skipped came many outrageous and interesting ex- cuses. The unending pile of dismissals, tardies, and absences left Mr. Cotton Richardson and the school secreataries confronted with many notes, some forged, some not. While many Seniors took their last year easy, the class officers were working hard trying to get everything ready for the end of the year. Class president Marnie Hutchinson worked hard all year trying to make sure the class had enough money for everything they needed. Many of these Senior classmates had been together for twelve years. They have watched each other grow, mature and made it through some rough times. When June 10, 1988 comes all of these friends and class- mates while watch each other of their separate ways. Even if many of them lose touch, the memories will never be lost. 78 Ryan Edward Aleshevich Susan Dell Almarode Laurie Ann Appleford Anita Catherine Arehart Terry Warren Argenbright Jon Armendariz Tracy Lee Ayers Lori Beth Banks Heather Lynn Barrett Tamitha Renee Bartley Tonya Annette Bartley Christopher Damian Baruffi At a pep rally, Stuarts Draft High School seniors show why the Class of 1988 is great!

Not only do they know the meaning of it, but most seniors possess it. However, if the meaning is a bit leary to you, Webster's describes it as ‘‘a lack of feeling, want, of emotion. Indiffer- ence, sluggishness.”” At Stuarts Draft High School this lack of caring is known as “‘senioritis.”” This disease, that causes a great decrease in produc- tivity, usually occurs in May or during the first weekend of sunshine. Signs of the senior slump are; incomplete homework, rowdiness, asnd abs- cence from school (not due to illness). The disease usually lasts form May until mid-June, when seniors graduate and then head towards the beach! The whole process then recycles with the new upcoming seniors. Mrs. Taylor's third period senior class wrote this poem showing their feeling towards Senioritis: School is not fair, but we don’t care Throw us out? They don’t dare lf we don’t pass we're gonna stay We just take it day by day Administration tries to fight us But we’re wrapped up in senioritis Everyday they gripe and preach Which goes to prove, ‘‘Life’s a Beach!” Christopher Redding Rufe Kevin Michael Schroeder Matthew James Shirley Jonathan Lewis Sholes David Stratton Shriver Penny Reid Shumate 92 Angela Marie Slabaugh Kenneth Clark Slack Lisa Marie Solis Kathy Lynn Sprouse Sean Christopher Sprouse Renee Lynelle Toler Vita Michelle Truxell Debra Elizabeth Tutt Belinda Sue Via Donald Lee White Michael Andrew Whitesell Melinda Sue Wilt 93 94 Michael Ray Winfield Terry Tina Wingard Benjamin Morgan Wood Shawnetta Lynn Woodson Rebecca Sue Woodworth Thomas Harold Wright Joseph Aaron Young Treacy Gordon Zirkle Marnie Hutchinson seems to disagree on a year- book issue with advisor Cherie Taylor. ie Vplly Coos younger ° 7 [rot 54 he POY ce casino wh MA S TUNA brn anrod UN WEY — sea) a) We Cees vo oo ne TA { a av Own : Ae coe ? iy = =. x ww ee XD N C3 FE Don - YOU Kein CO Aorshal ot SB PES a eae AEu N is Tetiy Cr (ee ee ; ‘ f “a Va mc 2 5 ey z. ae Sts has ° 7 ee tN aot (tier B L %® : ra oN , ae) er iS aN cal : w : ) ; ; 2 OBS” 8 96 Prowling through The Years Susan Almarode — Freshman Class Vice-Presi- dent; Sophomore Class Vice-President; Boys Bas- ketball Cheerleader, 9th -12th(captain); Concert Choir, 9th, l0th(librarian), 11th (Vice-Presi- dent),12th (President); S.C.A.

Monica Cantwell and Rick Czerwinski pay close attention in class as they put their creative thoughts on the back burner. Seniors The Senior Class of 1988 showed many aspects of their personalities within the class- room. The most obvious being their spirited nature. They par- ticipated in many thought-ren- dering discussions and cre- ative-making projects. One creative projects that was very successful was the map making of the United States in Coach Ball’s government classes. One example of a creative map was Eren Jimenez’s “‘stitched map.” lt was a map made from vari- Show ous colors of yarn. Senior Lisa Solis cross-stitched an Ameri- can map while Wendy Campbell “baked’’ one. Another example of creativ- ity was the scurrying of seniors in hopes of having a successful Class Night. Many stupendous ideas and skits were brought forth by most seniors. Unfortu- nately, their creativity did not pay off because, due to misun- derstandings and lack of com- munication Class Night was not held. The list of creative and spir- ited senior activities is never- ending. Participation in each made the activity very special. Participation also made many memories for some seniors. Melinda Wilt and Micky Collins bring their classy spirit to the front of the class. Kevin Lauck looks bored with a discussion on surrogate motherhood between Mike Evelsizer, Brian Campbell, Brad Johnson, Jeff Burgener, Rick Czerwinski, and Matt Berry. Seniors Rally Thru Spirit The Class of 1988 decided to get together one sunny afternoon for some fun. The date was May 15 and the location was poolside at Vita Truxell’s house. The turn out was low but the fun was abundant. Dave Shriver pro- vided everyone entertainment as he performed an assortment of dives and joined in many games of “‘chicken’”’. Everyone who showed up had a great time — They indulged in eating, drinking, and swimming, and ‘‘catching rays’. The times were fun and this will be another mere memory the Class of '88 will cherish. Also, seniors had a spirit-filled year winning the pep-rally contests for hav- ing the louder cheering sections. The seniors leave a hard act to follow for the class of ’89.

The Prowling Crew Every third Monday of each month, students take a break from their daily routine to attend their other activities. With over twenty clubs available to attend, many students stay active. Students use their own time to sup- port their clubs. They come in before school starts to meet, they stay after school, and they spend nights and weekends preparing for their activities. Many of the clubs also have competi- tions to attend and must spend more time preparing their talents. With dedi- cated and interested students, the clubs and activities at Stuarts Draft High stay “‘on the prowl’. Juniors Robert Gleason and Steve Hanlin give their full attention to the N.H.S. presentation. 105 ay ae ‘ é ‘ Juniors Danny Alger, Steve Hanlin, Robert Glea- son, and Ronan Doherty take their time in work- ing an experiment in Chemistry class.

Students from across the nation plus Puerto Rico, Canada, and Mexico, totally over 400 people for each ses- sion, come to Washington D.C. to stay a week. This program’s objectives is for some of the finest student leaders in America to come together and be exposed to appointed leaders of gov't. Coach Ron Ball and Mrs. Pamela Ungar nominated junior Susan Calder to attend this program. It is the first Susan Calder waith her newly found friends their picture taken for their memory of P.C. 108 time anyone from Augusta County Schools has been selected. Her selec- tion had to meet many requirements: have a grade point average of “B” or better, place in the top 25 percent of her class, be active in community groups, be active leaders in student organizations such as S.C.A., NHS, or other co-curricular activities and sports, and to have an interest in American gov't. This program lasts a week long for each session and there are six sessions throughout the winter. Susan attended this program from Feb. 6-Feb. 13. She says that ‘While in Washington, the Susan Calder, along with members of Section 3, take time to fill in a survey. whole group was ‘on the go’ all the time. We attended many seminars, did a lot of sightseeing, had many meet- ings, and met with our Congressmen and Senators.” Coach Ball is hoping to send a cou- ple of people every year to Pres. Class. and hopes that Susan can persuade many sophomores that this is a worth- while program and many should attend if funds can be made available. This year a few of the civic organizations in the community helped to support the project and hopefully the support will continue and spread. With hundreds of people there was never “‘a dull moment.’’ Presidential Classroom allows for many opportuni- ties to learn about the government. Susan comments that “Il will never Susan Calder takes a seat behind Senator Paul Trible’s desk. forget the week at Presidential Class- room and | learned a lot about my government. | will also never forget the people | met there. yyy The members of P.C. line up outside of the Capitol on their way to hear Pat Schroeder, the Honorable.

They participated in two practice meets, defeating Ft. Defiance and Buf- falo Gap early in the season. At the the Podium County meet, however, the Cougar team suffered their first defeat, only to come back at the Skyline District meet with five Region B qualifiers. Pete Rau, Stephanie Hudson, Garry O’Brien, Ter- ry Jordan, and Becky Woodworth par- ticipated in the Regional meet at Long- wood College, and Terri Jordan came away with qualification for the State Forensic Meet.

One of the greatest break through of the year was the number of times the club members went to the Middle School. For quite some time, the club members were going to the Middle School only once a month. This, all the members felt, was a major draw back on getting to know the 6th graders. Finally, in February, the members got the approval to go to the Middle School (Front row from left) Lisa Burkholder, Kathy Sprouse, Amy Harper, Kathryn Rhodes, Susan Almarode; (second row from left): Jennifer Morris, Julie Wright, Lisa Campbell, Heather DeMacio, Gina Hiner, Connie Chase; (third row from left): Krissy Miller, Christine Worntzoff, Leanne Williams, Brad Johnson, Tonya Cork; (fourth row from front): Mrs. Linda Hickey, Christy Fleshman, Sherry Arendall, Travis Hoy, Lee Hevener. M2 School twice a month. Just like Julie Wright said, ‘‘Since we have been going twice a month, | can see a big different in the way the students respond to us.” Many other club members also felt their 6th graders were more open to them after they started going to the Middle School twice a month. The SODA Club sponsor, Mrs. Hick- ey, is very proud of the club and it’s achievements in the '87-’'88 school year.

The varsity club with Donna Cogar as president, Kent Swartz as vice-pres- ident, Dana Chittum as secretary, and Terry Batts as treasurer has had a prosperous year. Of the many activi- ties they have endured some include grooming the baseball field, assisting at the chicken barbeque and at the concession stands of the fall and win- ter sports, and they sold key chains to raise money for their Varsity Club sweatshirts that are worn proudly. Under the supervision of Mrs. Joan Brown the club year has been a chal- lenging one. For new members initia- tion was not as easy as expected. They were required to get fifteen signatures on a paper shaped symbol of the sport they're involved in. These signatures had to be of members already joined.

Every third Monday cf each month, activity day, students scattered through the halls to break up the monotony of their regular schedules. Meeting third period in the cafeteria Key clubbers planned events to service their school and community. Their divisional goal of more than $100 was raised to support MDA. Last April the incoming officers at- tended Capital District Convention in Virginia Beach where they trained for their offices. While there Tina Tutwiler was installed as Lieutenant Governor for Division 5. Becky Woodworth trained for President, Eddie Groome was elected Vice President, Pam Bree- den became Secretary, while Nicky Hurtt was Treasurer. To Key clubbers, it is a great satis- faction that you receive when you know that your work has helped some- one. It’s an even greater feeling when they know they have put a smile on someone's face for the day.

In March, the Spanish club celebrat- ed Foreign Language Week in conjunc- tion with the other two clubs by having “what's happening? days’ involving the three langugages. Posters were put up around the halls labeling various places in Spanish, French, and Latin. At its meetings, the club listens to various speakers who were either from a foreign country or travel in foreign countries. It is easy to see why people love to join the Spanish club.

The club meetings held every activity day in Mrs. Judy Hous- ers room consist of planning, education on Drama’s_ back- ground, and speakers occasion- ally. One speaker, a profession- al make up artist, did visit the club. Behind the scenes drama students were asked at random why they joined the club. Most answered, ‘| joined because it’s exciting and | have so much fun trying new things.”’ But drama is not all acting. Some students join because they enjoy working with the make-up while still oth- ers simply enjoy setting up stage scenes. With all the many different sides of the drama filled some things never change. Hard work and extra effort are still needed as well. This year’s drama club has the determination along with creativity and imagination which also play a big role in their lives on the stage. They have worked hard and it shows!

Students Working All Togeth- er, better known as SWAT had a very active '87-'88 school year! One of the first major activies sponsored by SWAT was “‘catch a ride’ for homecoming night. In the month of December the club performed a skit during the Christmas assembly. Following the assembly, members of the club handed out Dum Dum suckers to all the students say- ing,‘‘Don’t be a Dum Dum, don’t drink and drive!” In the month of March, SWAT did a showcase across from the office. Finally for the month of May the SWAT club did operation Prom, a big success. It’s easy to see that SWAT is a very prominent club in Stuarts Draft High School.

With sponser, Mr. John Eves, leading the group. They sponsored many exciting activities throughout the year. At the start of the year, the student body elected officers for this club. Marcy Hatter was elected President. First Vice-President was Pete Rau while Kathy Sprouse was elected sec- ond Vice-President. Elected to the Sec- retary position was Susan Calder and to the Treasurer position was Melissa Matherly. Finally Randall Zeh was elected Reporter for the SCA. Getting off to a good start in the month of September, the SCA spon- sored a slave sale which brought much profit to the club. In the month of October the SCA sponsored one of the biggest events of the school year ‘Homecoming’. This event, as usual, was a big success. For the month of December, the SCA organized a Christ- mas assembly for all the students or clubs to participate in. Later, in the month of March, the SCA sponsored a beach dance to get rid of the winter bla’s. Finally in the month of May the SCA organized an Academic dinner. It’s easy to see that the SCA had another successful year as usual. 126 Members of the SCA are;(front row from left): Kathy Sprouse, Pete Rau, Marcy Hatter, Randall Zeh, Susan Calder; (second row): Shelly Winton, Dawn Brubaker, Daphne Almarode, Lynn Hering, Leigh Ann Cohorn, Heather DeMacio, Jill Rau, ;(third row): Jennifer Morris, Monica Broom, Julie Goodman, Tammy Brown, Yvette Massine, Michelle White, Terri Rogers, Kim Garvey, Sherry Carr, Nicky Hurtt, Candi Harmon, Susan Glick; (forth row): Mark Woodworth, Susan Almarode, Amy Harper, Stephanie Stone, Sybil Biller; (fifth row): Kevin Coffey, Mr. John Eves, Todd Snead, Alec Thomson, Garry O'Brien, Susan Huffman, Leon Franklin, and Lenny Pompeo.

Many scholars exchange their textbooks for rule books in order to participate in the various athletic events that take place in Cougar country. These athletes are dedicated to their sport. They adhere to a regular routine of exercise and discipline. Striving to be num- ber one, these student-athletes are accus- tomed to cracking the whip as their coach- es demand. The guys and gals of the sports world know the feeling of tired muscles and sore bodies after a vigourous practice ses- sion. These iron-clad athletes also realize that participation in a sport is time con- suming. On a regular weekly basis approxi- mately fifteen to seventeen hours a week are sacrificed by the athletes for paractice and interscholastic competition. Study hours are cut, and the participants may have to give up social time in order to apply themselves to the sport with might and main. Not only do the athletes sacrifice, but the coaches must also abandon some of their own time. They have to spend time organizing practice sessions and formulat- ing game plans, not to mention the actual time spent in the extent training or compe- tition itself. Their blood pressures rise as the real pressure heightens on same days. These coaches have a job to do. They have teach their “‘students’” the sport, train them in the sport, and have fun doing it. New additions to the coaching staff mean changes in the strapping exercise programs. Cherie Taylor has become the new football cheerleaders sponsor. She helps eight cheerleaders root for the brawny football team. Richard Popeck brings a fresh approach to the boys and girls cross country teams. He sends the teams to the three mile course in order to excel at the meets. Todd Banks is the mew junior varsity boys basketball coach and softball coach. He teaches the boys how to make it to the hoop for two, while he trains the girls in strategic softball defenses in the spring. Kelly Uptain, the present junior varsity boys track coach, clocks the run- ners as they cross the finish line during practice. She educates the boys by strengthening their endurance in prepara- tion for track meets. Coaches, as well as athletes, are dedi- cated to the athletic department on and off the court. They sacrifice and labor, but most of all, they have fun. The athletes and coaches are all a part of one team. and all of the various sports teams make up one single team. The team is to have the drive to be the best as we are on the prowl to success at the home of the Cougar. 129 JV VOLLEYBALL The JV Volleyball team bumped, set, and spiked their way through the 1987-88 season. The new and return- ing players had to go through try-outs to convince Coach Joan Brown that they were the right player for the posi- tion. After the team was decided, the players had to adjust to recieving var- sity served balls, rotation, substitut- ing, and time-outs.

Terry Argenbright did just that as he took first in regionals while David Reich grabbed third in district action. The team practiced at Waynesboro Country Club where all their home matches were held.

Despite a losing season, the girls strived to give a 100% effort and to have fun while doing so. Under the leadership of Rookie Coach Todd Banks and Assistant Coach Kevin Hale, the girls felt like they did actually improve their game-playing skills. More concentration on the field and more excitement were the focal points of the team. “This has been the best team work that | have ever seen us play,” stated Senior 4 4 Center Fielder Jennifer Burdette. “We worked well together and got along great.

Ever though the final record was 2-15, | felt that as the season went on, we became ¢ better ball team,” concluded Coach Banks. Determination, effort, and encouragement pushed the Girls Softball Team tc strive to play the game as they knew it. Winning isn’t everything. Playing the game with strapping drive is half the way to winning.

Cougars dominate Skyline District For one more year the Cougar baseball team repeated their state standing. After a twelve inning war with J.J. Kelly, the longest game in state baseball history, Stuarts Draft came out in second place one more time, with 2 runs to J.J. Kelly’s 3. That game on June 3 at UVA, one filled with anticipation and excitement, ended a very successful baseball season. After establishing their pride throughout Stuarts Draft, they eased, once again, through their next five games to establish dominance of the Skyline District. Let the record stand: 8-3 over William Monroe, 8-2 over Luray, 9-1 over Buffalo Gap, 8-0 over Riverheads, and 6-4 over Wilson Memorial. Just when they were getting used to winning an unfortunate loss to Madison County stifled the players’ exuberance, but only for a short while! The team recovered with a 14-0 win over Fluvanna, the largest margin of the season, and continued their winning streak over William Monroe, 11-6; Luray, 10-1; Buffalo Gap, 12-2; Riverheads, 6-1; Wilson Memorial, 6-3; and Madison County, 3-1. Stuarts Draft entered the Skyline District Tournament with Wilson, Buffalo Gap, and William Monroe. The team beat Buffalo Gap 6 to 1, and Stuarts Draft and Wilson proceeded to the Region B Tournament. Again Stuarts Draft conquered, winning 13-1 over Page County and 11-3 over Stonewall Jackson. After a week’s layoff because of rain, and with two trophies under their wings, the team entered the state semi-finals with Lancaster, thrashing them with a score of 15 to 3. They entered State Finals with a bang and carried home yet another trophie, but this time for second place. The Cougar line-up for next years team will be missing a lot of their year’s top players. The seniors who are leaving include Brian Campbell, Terry Batts, who has received a baseball scholarship to VMI, Pete Rau, who is going to play at Harvard, Ryan Aleshevich, who is going to play at Bridgewater, Leon Franklin, Travis Hoy, Russ and Jeff Jordan, who are going to play at David Lipscomb University, Pat Cash, and Lenny Pompeo. The coaching staff will not change, and Mr. Alexander had success with this year’s team, so ‘Go For It’ again Cougars! ' A al s f k ! Ryan Aleshevich’s teammates gather around him after one of his many home-runs. 141 Prowling With Spirit Who will be willing to sweat, freeze, ride the bus long hours and enjoy it? The cheerleaders of course! To have a successful season in any sport you need fans. And to get the fans into the games you need cheerleaders. The Cougar cheerleaders were divided into three squads consisting of eight girls on each squad. The three squads were football, girls’ basketball, and boys’ basketball. All squads were successful in leading their teams to victory. Traci Gabler holds onto Renee Blackwell and LaDena Hall so they don’t fall off the side. Supporting the stunt are Michelle Gibson and Angie Cox. On the bottom are Missy Belsky, Tonya Eavey, and Connie Chase Is in the split. 142 Being a cheerleader has it’s ups and downs. Sometimes the crowds were not cooperative but at other times it paid off and they showed their spirit. There were many long bus rides but they were conquered by singing, mu- sic, primping, eating, and chatter. They were a time when a lot of memories were made and shared between both new and old friends. 2 By: Traci Gabler The girl's basketball cheerleaders use pony poses for a dramatic look.

The Cougars went undefeated in the regular season and achieved the only 10-0-0 regular season record ever at Stuarts Draft. The team also won a play off birth against Powhatan which created several firsts. The 1987 team was the first team to, win eleven games, win six home games in one season, win the first play off game for any Augusta County school, shut out four opponents in a row, and win a third consecutive Skyline District Championship. Yes, it was a dream come true. Every football team dreams of going 10-0-0 but only a very few teams even Senior Chris Baruffi dodges a Lunenburg opponent while trying to gain more yards. Coach Ron Ball proudly displays his “blue belly’ attire before the Madison game. 144 achieve that objective. In fact, Stuarts Draft football team is only the second team in the history of Augusta County football to even go 10-0-0. This dream season became a school and community effort. At the games the Cougar faithful brought white tow- els and hankerchiefs and waved them in unison to support the team. This is how | could best describe the 1987 football season: it was a team and coaches effort from day one in August. It was finally, a group determined to win. It was a group of people who loved each other and who sacrificed together to achieve success.

The girls had a little trouble this year with consistency but still finished a little below the five hundred mark with a season record of 10-11. The lady Cougars got off to a good start as they won six of their first nine games. The Cougars lost two tough games in non-district action to Robert E. Lee High School. The ladies then showed their inconsistency as they lost four games in a row. The Cougar girls then came back to redeem themselves with two big wins. The most exciting game was the big victory over Buffalo Gap. The Cougar ladies thrashed the Bisons who later became district champs. Two lady Cougars earned recogni- tion around the league. Susan Calder and Donna Cogar were named to the All City-County team and were also chosen as co-MVP’s. Cogar was also named to the All District team, honor- able mention All Region team, and was 146 selected as Co-offensive Player of the Year by the Staunton Leader. The 1987 season was the first los- ing season Coach Cleavenger has expe- rienced. Cleavenger will face a rebuild- ing year in 1988 as he will lose six Seniors. There is, however, some up- coming talent and the lady Cougars will be vying for the top spot. Dana Chittum tries to find an alternative route as a Lee High player sets a pick.

Effort made by every player made the team successful in the eyes of all the Cougar fans. One-hundred percent hustle and dedi- cation added up to the mixture of good plays and good sportsmanship. This meant long hours of practice in order to perfect the style and moves needed to play within the ability of the team. This meant times of thrilling victory and ago- nizing defeat. Individual wins were made by Dana Wh. fey ot THE “KILL” Chittum and Jill Rau. Dana became a member of the All City-County Volleyball Team due to her outstanding perfor- mance during the regular season. Jill Rau was recognized as she received and hon- orable mention to the All City-County team. Although the Lady Cougar Volleyball team did not record a_ tremendous record, they will ‘‘kill’” the memories of the win-loss record, ‘‘set’’-up for another fascinating year, and “‘volley” new ideas on how to improve the game.

Along with hard work and dedication, each member put forth their best ef- fort to make the season successful. The girls started their season at the end of February running in the halls of Stuarts Draft Middle School. But be- fore long the season was over and some girls turned in their uniforms while others such as Donna Cogar, Candi Harman, and Cristi Monroe, who got to advance to the state meet con- tinued to represent SDHS. Thus ending the season with a 5-3 record and con- 156 tinuing the winning spirit of the Stu- arts Draft Girls’ Track Team. The guys, also, had a very success- ful season by putting forth that extra effort. Ron Dameron continued to be an asset to the track team by breaking the Turner Ashby’s 110 meter hurdle record as well as placing first in dis- trict and regionals and third in the state. The rest of the team is also commended for the effort they put forth to make the season a successful one. They ended their season with a 4- 4 record and are looking forward to a winning season next year. Reaching the end of the pit is Junior Robbie Maxwell’s goal in the triple jump. Senior Shawnetta Woodson watches the disc after a tremendous throw at the Dis- trict Meet. Driving toward the finish line, Senior Ron Dameron leads the hurdle race at the Turner Ashby Relays.

It has been a very tedious, yet prosperous, year. This section would not be complete without the help of artistic talents from Penny Shumate, Monica Cantwell, Traci Grabler. Thanks also goes out to the drawing abilities of Cherie Taylor, Linda Rae Toler, and Dereck Toler. A special thank you is extended to Marnie Hutchinsom who has helped me compile the many different business advertisements. Thank you to the businesses who so generously supported us. Recognition also goes out to Connie Chase and Carol Reider for typing each article and caption. As business editor, it is my wish that the next year is as fulfilling to the yearbook as this year has been. Ce Sincerely, Drama students listen to a guest speaker on Activity Day. 189 Prowling to the Future At last! The end of another school year was near. For underclassmen it meant one step closer to graduating. Those who did graduate would enter the world of adulthood and indepen- dence. It was a time of gaining free- dom for all. Fun in the sun would replace books and homework. Long hours of sleeping without hearing the buzzing of an alarm clark eased stu- dents minds. The anticipation grew greater each day until finally . . . that one last bell rang! Every daydream each student had could be fulfilled. It wasn't until then that they realized they had nothing to do. What good was the end of a school year if students could not wait for another to start? Somehow the long days of summer were endured and enjoyed. Summer was a time for students to be re- freshed in order to begin the long school year that waited ahead.
