Homecoming ’81 Queen Denise Morgan and King Bruce Ratliff The parade, the week, the Pep Rally, and so much more made focusing on HOMECOMING ’81 so much fun. Queen Denise and King Bruce reigned supreme during this fun filled week. It was sweet, so sweet to watch the floats go by, wave to the pretty girls, and listen to our great Bulldog Band. Student Council members worked very hard to make this truly a great week. It showed that they really put all their heart into everything that was planned. The school was decorated and everyone gave pennies for their favorite Superdog, 16

In fact the Student Council is one of the most active clubs in the student body. They are always sponsoring contests and other activities to raise school spirit and participation. The work they did during Home- coming week was just one example. No club could do anything without the help of their spon- sors. Many teachers and some parents give time to help mem- bers and various classes reach their goals. Without this support there would be no need to think about focusing on any aspect of school life.

Show of the Year Homecoming is more than just focusing on a queen and a king. Even the football team isn’t everything. There are hours spent building floats, decorating halls and worrying teachers for free time. This is what makes home- coming more and more fun each year. The spirit of com- petition is always arguable. Pennies are used to cancel votes in the Super Dog Con- test. It’s a must for the sen- iors to win or they feel their honor has been injured. After all if this is your last chance, you ought to set a record, leave your mark so the next class will have something to work for. It hasn’t been easy. We asked Mr. McGlocklin what he thought about all the work that went into the parade and he just breathed a sigh of relief. “I’m just glad it is all over, but it was a great parade.” Work is what it takes and he and Michael and Rose- mary worked hard along with many others to give our com- munity a truly good home- coming parade. Others see it differently. For Mr. Chesser and Mrs. Curry, it is a mad week chas- ing down students who are either in the wrong place or absent from the right place. Ah, the times we give those two! Of course, no one has as much fun as Mrs. Blanken- ship as she tries to keep up with all of us. Seriously, much of it is in fun and jest and makes memories that every- one will treasurer for a life- time.
