Friends Can Find Fun Anywhiere n typical days, students de- vised means by which they could turn an ordinary day into a day to re- member, sometimes producing outrageous results. November 20, Mrs. Hughes and Mrs. Funderburk decked the halls in garnet and black, while strains of “2001” were heard throughout the hall. Of course Clemson fans would not be out done, as the “Tiger Rag” rang over the intercom and orange and purple brightly decorated the students and teachers alike. Good-natured fun was the order of the day as students ar- gued over which team would win the annual contest. Students also found fun getting involved in community activities. Variety '88 had its usu- al share of students in the cast, while the Rice Festival offered a fun- filled weekend for ev- eryone. American Gov- ernment teacher Mr. Greg Cranford encour- aged participation in lo- cal government; stu- dents found that being involved was interest- ing and fun, especially when they realized that their friends would be at the same council meetings. The good times shared and the fun gleaned from everyday school activities proved not only to lighten the attitude of the school, but also made the broad state- ment that this was where the fun started. Attempting to intercept a pass from the Baptist Hill quarterback at the Ser- toma Classic, Miguel Koger leaps high above the mass of players as Hunter Hiers works through the offensive line. Walterboro won, 14-0. Friday, November 20, one day before the Ciemson Carolina game, students showed their enthusiasm for their favor- ite team by donning sweatshirts, hats, and boxer shorts. The Gamecocks were victorious with a score of 20-7. Fun 5

 fill ' I I i E ndlessSummer c ) nee Upon a Summer Daze he wonder- ful institu- tion, “Sum- mer Vaca- t i o n , ’ ' began June 4, 1987. Students rushed to their cars, buses, and their parents cars to begin 61 days of sum- mer “BLISS!” Tammy Byrd, a ju- nior and “sun worship- er,” sarcastically com- mented, “Sitting on the beach for endless hours, no responsibil- ities, no homework, no papers, and endless fun—it really makes me want to ‘run’ right back to school!” The “endless” sum- mer was often inter- rupted by the beckon- ing call of jobs, band camp, football camp, softball camp and countless other camps and workshops. Mary Morris, junior, worked two weeks in Tennes- see at “Camp Look- out” for emotionally disturbed children. “It was difficult at times, but I did form some strong bonds with some of the children.” As the “endless” summer began to dwin- dle away, band camp began. Misty Linder, a rookie in the Band of Blue, commented, “Band camp was hard and infringed on a lot of my free time but when the show started to come together it was all worth it!” The date August 24, struck fear in the hearts of students as they realized that they must face the reality and responsibility of school again. Summer was over and all they had to look forward to was June 3, 1988. EH Nathaniel Pinckney “chills out” during lunch break at band camp. The band prac- ticed on the hardest show in the history of the Band of blue. Shelly O’Quinn helps Charo- lette Hickman attempt'’ to wash dishes. Household chores were a part of everyday life for students over the summer. Tracey Reeves, Michelle Min- ton, Rosemary Jenkins and Ta- mika Bonaparte spend some time with Grimace. The volley- ball team held a surprise birth- day party for Kayce Reed and Rosemary Jenkins one day after practice. 8 Student Life
