Homecoming was one of the most celebrated events in high school, and 1984 was no exception. Festivities began with the many weeks of planning and creating the class floats. The parade was held on its usual route through town, ending at the senior high. Along with the class floats in the parade, there were various organizations represented, such as S.I.U. and the T.C. Poms. The candidates for king and queen also found themselves among a bunch of enthusiastic students in the Homecoming Parade. When the parade reached its destination, the traditional bonfire was held to burn the Bucs and create more energy for the Trojan victory- The announcing of king and queen was done a bit differently this year. Instead of having the winners announced at the Homecoming Pep-assembly, they were named after the game on Thirlby Field. After the Trojans Iced The Bucs, Marcel Danet and Colleen Gauthier were announced as reigning king and queen for 1984, and they marched through the fanfare of the band and an aisle of flags. One question remained though: Marcel, was that jersey number planned, or are we supposed to believe that 84 is just a coincidence?

November was the month of Thanksgiving. It was the time when we took a closer look at our accomplishments and our freedoms. The National Honor Society presented the yearly academic awards. The keynote address was given by Mitch Irwin, Michigan State Senator. He talked of how proud he was to know that there were teenagers striving for the very best. The presentation of the scholastic awards was later given by Mr. Johnson, NHS advisor, and Dr. Ayling, principal. They handed out 31 bronze keys, 55 silver keys and 40 gold keys. Miss Draper, Director of Attendance and Discipline, was also very pleased to hand out Perfect Attendance Awards to Michelle Carden, Tracie Doering, Mike Fouch, Jay Gainforth, Quinn Leslie, Scott Mead and Andy Schmidt. (A few did not attend the presentation!) Some TCHS students were also recognized for their talents in modeling. Chris Hillock and Kathy Good modeled for the local Prange's and Wilhelm’s while Beth Beyer and Alison Stoll showed the true comfort of sleepwear from Kay's Lingerie and Leisure Wear. And November was also the month the Trojans played East Lansing in the state semi-finals. 28
