166 ssmoms EEEK SPEEEK any students have seen the word Feeek plastered on various surfaces around the school. including the senior bulletin board, by the lunch lines, and on the Senior Homecoming float. However, very few people know what this word stands for and the real meaning behind it. Feeek is the name of a surf team that 'is like a take-off on, for example, Team O'Neill or Team Toads, said member Kevin Coordt. Other members of Team Feeek include Ernie Hahn, Joe Hardy, Doug Keel, Eric West, and also some female members. The name Feeek comes from Kevin Coordt's older brother, who started using it as a slang word with various meanings. Two and a half months ago, Coordt and his friends began just saying the word and writing it on dirty car windows. Feeek kept popping up more and more until one person started calling the group that said lt Team Feeek. That name stuck, and the guys started making T-shirts with that name on them and the symbol Mr Feeek, which is a Mr. Blll type smiley face with spiked hair. The shirt of Team Feeek is just one of several versions of Feeek wear. Coordt has made all eight designs of Feeek symbols. The team is making pins and stickers, and hopefully, in the future, shorts and bathing suits. At the beach, Team Feeek has challenged another surf team, Team Caranza, which , l 4 k SOME PEOPLE THINK WE'RE OBSESSED . . consists of five local surfers. Coordt said that. after the long battle, Team Caranza fought harder and arose victorious. Other evidence of this team was on the Senior Homecoming float. The float was a scene from the 1920's, and the name of the bar and dance hall was Club Feeek. This was the result of the influence of Doug Keel, a Team Feeek member, and also on A.S.B. So the popiyarily and influence of Team Feeek is growing. Yet, Kevin Coordt added that, some people think we're obsessed by Feeek - we're not. We're just having fun. - Kathy Dreifuss 1 0 il.: --.Lllil '
