10 Early Start Aids Yearbook Staff Lines formed on Saturday morning September 21. The 1985 Sandspur had finally arrived. Students gathered in groups in the cafeteria. They signed books for friends and paused for a mo- ment to relive last year's events in the pages of their yearbooks. Work on the 1986 edition of Sandspur began on August 23. when staff members gathered for a workshop and decision making session. By the opening of school, technical details such as cover design, type size, and end sheet color had already been submitted to the plant. Staff members were intro- duced to computers and a word processing program set up spe- cifically for yearbooks. Most copy work for the 1986 Sandspur was submitted on a copy disk instead of the old typewritten copy sheet method. The make-up of the staff changed with each new quar- ter. Each new group brought fresh ideas and new talent to the production of this book. Many of the original staff members remained through the entire year however to give the book a sense of continuity.

12 Students, Parade Go Hawaiian Any stranger who came to Valdosta on the afternoon of October 18, would have thought he had made a wrong turn and ended up in the islands of Hawaii. Actually he would have been witness to Valdosta High's 1985 Homecoming parade which centered around the theme Wildcats Go Hawaiian. Under the direction of the Stu- dent Council, the parade began at 4:00 p.m. Students from clubs, groups, and all organizations participated. They dressed in grass skirts, flowered clofhing, and wore leis around fheir necks. An occasional bare foot could be seen marching down the pa- rade path to the sounds of tropi- cal music. Competition between the classes to win first prize for their float was evident. After working every night for a week prior to the parade, the junior class took the honor.
