Yell, Yell, Yell. . . Pep Club shows spirit through many projects Games. . . spirit. . . posters. . . We had a busy year in Pep Club. Promoting school spirit involved many activities and projects. Yelling at the games was the main job of the Pep Club. Making sure everybody was in the block with our new uniforms on, ready to yell when the game started was another job. lt was a blast going to the away games on the busses, singing, talking and having a good time. Pep Club had many projects to build spirit. The newest one was A Dollar for an Athlete. We drew an athlete name from a hat and put food in his locker and decorate it on the day of the game. Another thing we did was make posters to build a spark of enthusiasm in the coaches and players. After we won a game and everybody was fired up afterwards it made all things we did to promote school spirit worthwhile. Involvement. . . work. . . fulfillment. . . .

Before the school year even started, we were busy planning activities for the oncoming year, having poster parties and going to board meetings. This year to get new ideas for the club, Nina Morgan, president, and Jill Snyder, publicity chairman, spent four days at the Kayette Leadership Camp near Junction City. The year then started out with a chili supper after the Blue-White Scrimmage game. Over 200 people attended the supper which was for Kayettes, football players and their parents. For Homecoming we tried to start a new tradition by selling mums to the student body for their dates and parents. Then, to help raise money for UNICEF, we had a bake sale and went Trick or Treating with Hi-Y, where we raised a new high of 3170. The highlight of the year was Heart Sister Week. We all exchanged names and for a week we put little gifts ina girl's locker. At the end of the week, we had a party and gave one final nice gift and discovered who our Heart Sister was. During the year, we sold shakers at basketball games, went to conferences, listen- ed to speakers, participated in the National Service Week and supported a needy family at Christmas. We reached our goal of 1,000 points first semester and received an award. This was the first time in several years Kayettes had won the award. Trick or Treating. . .helping. . .UNlCEF. . .

One of our major projects was to clean up the stadium before Homecom- ing. We also sold Christmas candles and T-shirts. We had a lot of speakers during the club period and always found time to laugh and enjoy ourselves. We organized Booster Club for the purpose of supporting the students of Washburn Rural High School, Jay Shideler Junior High and Auburn Junior High. Any patron of District H437 can join our club. Some of the projects to help the students were the improving of the McElroy stadium bleachers, taking buses to away games and the wearing of our booster jackets. Blue. . . white. . . unite. . .
