Ropes course requires team- work. Seniors Danielle dos Santos and Naomi Steinreich collaborate on the task of tying the rope. The skills learned in this class need to be mastered for Wilderness in the fall. Partners in Action As the spring weather returned Mr. Child’s ropes course was offered again. Beginning behind the school on the logs, ropes, and poles, students from all grades united as a class in the trust fall. Each student entrusted his life in the hands of his class- mates as he fell back. Challenging experiences such as the catwalk, swinging log, and dangling duo re- quired teamwork. The ability to collaborate with fel- low classmates was required of all participants. The spring ropes classes learned the techniques neces- sary for a successful wilderness experience. Keeping with the element of suspense, the prom king and queen were announced at It:00pm. King Buddy Castner and Queen Rebecca Miller smile for the camera after their coronation. Spring Activities 9

Evening In Paradise Eight weeks of plan- ning and prepara- tion made the 1987 Junior Prom a great success. Reservations were made for the Clin- ton Holiday Inn. Friday, May 8, 7:00pm, marked everyone’s calendar, as 138 couples reserved their places at the tables with a payment of $50.00. The final count reached 20 tables. Couples planning their evening, rented their tux- edos, spent hours se- lecting the perfect gown, ordered corsages, doz- ens of roses and bouton- nieres. The limousines were scheduled to pick up couples at 6:30pm. Couples arrived to dance to the theme song, Open Arms”, by Journey. The highlight of the evening occurred at 11:00pm when the prom king and queen were an- nounced. Couples con- gregated on the crowd- ed dance floor keeping in step to the music until midnight. Gowns were hung in closets and tuxedos were returned. Film was developed and corsages were pressed. This evening would be etched in everyone’s minds and enclosed in their scrap- books to be remem- bered as an evening in paradise. The excitement of the Junior Prom shines in their smiles, as senior Bill Jones and sopho- more Talisha Boyer glance over the memory booklet. Glimmering in the candle- light, the Junior Prom favor captures the elegance of the evening. Enjoying the evening, senior Ed Sabatino takes the hands of junior Jennifer Edwards for a dance. 8 Student Life

Summer Spirit Soars From sunrise to sun- set the activity of the student body this summer seemed endless. For some stu- dents, the hours were spent working full or part-time to pay the ex- pense of a car, insur- ance, or a new fall ward- robe. Local businesses such as Dairy Queen, Burger King, and the the- ater provided employ- ment. Many socialized with their friends at par- ties, concerts, and mov- ies. Some students trav- eled overseas. Jessica Torrance and LeeAnne Fox spent three weeks performing nine times as members of the Ameri- can Music Abroad Band and Chorus. Frau Haas and 15 German Club members explored the cultures of six European countries for two weeks. Their activities included the Hard Rock Cafe in London, a night boat ride on the Seine River in Par- is, and a visit to an open air concert in Innsbruck. The learning exper- ience continued as stu- dents attended summer school, camps, and workshops. Forty-three marching band members spent seven days re- hearsing songs, dance routines, field shows, and locating their coordi- nates on the field. The cheerleaders learned new routines and chants through the exchange of ideas at the Dynamic Cheerleaders Associ- ation Camp held at East Stroudsburg University. Five intense days of yearbook development were endured by seven members of the Lamaton Staff. Editors learned from journalism experts the correct terminology, layout guidelines, and trends in the field of jour- nalism. Summer activi- ties of the student body comprised endless hours and intensified un- der the warmth of the summer sun.
