The “Olympus” flout, entered by the Cedar Hills Merchants Association, received honorable mention in the 1960 Portland Hose Festival Parade. Sunset students chosen to ride the float were: Dennis Landers, Dennis Ingram, John Mundigal, and Dan Maust. Hidden from the camera’s eye was Hart Bobbitt. New Zraditions and Achievements Established During Eventful year Among the many achievements attained by Sunset during the year 1960-61 the most outstanding were the “Olympus” float, entered by the Cedar Hills Merchants Association, and the Apollo band, entrants in the I960 Portland Hose Festival Parade. Al- though this was the first time for both entries, Sunset's band received the first place trophy for being top band in the parade; the float received honorable mention. During the summer months, Keri Kaa, Sunset's first A.F.S. exchange student from New Zealand, left her homeland, bound for New York. At the same time, Kathy Mchl left Oregon on her way to Torino, Italy, to act as Sunset's A.F.S. exchange student. One of the more prominent firsts that were to occur was the addition of a senior class, enabling Sunset to have its first graduation. With much anticipation the senior class worked diligently through the year, making plans for their last activi- ties as a class—such as the Senior Tree Planting expedition and Baccalaureate—and for their final Commencement exercises. These events truly made this a year to be remembered . . . another year representing many new additions to traditions and achievements established at Sunset High School. 5
