Fun In The Sun Summer was a time for work and play. Although some students had to earn wages for future college ca- reers, others had fun in the sun. The astronomical temperatures of the drought that occurred through the summer found some students stay- ing in the comforting coolness of their own home. Besides working and relaxing, stu- dents also found time for fun and parties. Jam- minT Teen Club sponsored a toga party that helped students forget that the end of summer was fastly approaching. Football practice did its fair share of interrupting the summer for some. Grueling practices were held daily in the sweltering heat, and the practices had to be attended to pre- vent disciplinary action from being taken (which usually included run- ning laps.) The Band also held its annual sum- mer camp. This was when rookie band members became familiar with the bands new performance. Rookie band member Garnette Moseley em- phasized, “It’s fun to a certain ex- tent, however, rookies really learn the true definition of hard work.” But, as everyone knows, the most popular summer hangout was the beach. The beach pro- vided a place for students to meet friends and work on their tans. But there was more to do than just lay in the sun. One could play volleyball, throw frisbee, ride a raft, or just build a sand castle. With all of the available activities, summer proved to be what every student looked forward to, like the “light at the end of the tunnel.” But as always, the attempt for an ever- lasting summer failed, as the upcom- ing school year brought an end to it all. Summer is the time for fun, lots; of fun!

i - s-inon Martin, a contestant in the Queen of -earts pageant, models her formal for the ludfees. Throughout the year, many activi- ties were sponsored by school orga- nizations. These activities included dances, pageants, and even a visit from a well-known D.J. from a top- rated radio station. Many school affiliated organiza- tions promoted dances. Principal Bob Pence went through great pains to rearrange the schedule in order to accomodate the festivities. These dances usually took place in the commons area dur- ing the last period of the day. Shelby Rishen commented about the dances, It was great the way the faculty supported these dances and allowed for periods to be short- ened. Another favorite activity of the stu- dents was the Queen of Hearts pag- eant. This pageant was held in the mini-auditorium, Leslie Pitts, was chosen to be the Queen of Hearts. The event that highlighted the year was the unexpected visit by Dr. Barry Hill in the Q-107 Video Van. Students were ex- cused five minutes be- fore the bell to enjoy the music and receive free Cokes that were being distributed by the doctor himself. Barry came to video tape students dancing for the Q-107-Coca Cola High School dance competition. by: Stacy Christianson Randell Mixon Everyone needed a break and there always seemed one way or an- other to ease the tension. During football season pep rallies were popu- lar, because it was a time students could scream their lungs out without getting in trou- ble. Happenings
