In attempts to sell the re- maining yearbooks from the year before, the Re- flector staff entered a float in the Homecoming parade to publicize them. After being assigned the task of organizing the staff ski trip, Tricia War- ren and Lisa Goodman asked Cathy Canoles if we should go to Massen- utten or Wintergreen. At the first yearbook meeting of the year, Ms. Carol Moore informs the staff of the various jobs involved with the year- book. Showing her love for pho- tography, Laura Powell shows the correct way to use pen hole cameras. While waiting for Ms. Carol Moore to finalize the ladder, Kyle Fornash reminds her of up coming events that must be in- cluded.
