Farmer Fever- the spirit and pride that spread through Wheat Ridge High this year was a continuation of tradition set forth since l879 with the beginning of formal education at Wheat Ridge. This year a beautiful Indian summer helped to capture the nostalgic spirit and to heighten the congenial atmosphere during the fall.

Major improvements were made to the front athletic fields by the addition of tennis courts. two multi-purpose fields, a baseball field, a soccer field, a softball field and dugouts. This generated a feeling that Wheat Ridge High is always on the move to better itself. This year's football season proved to be exciting and full of contagious Farmer Fever. The speculation of an undefeated season lasted until the last regular season game against the mighty Columbine Rebels. A trip to the state finals spurred the Farmer ambition to new heights. Steve Reaves awesome handspring captured many a goal throughout the soccer season. iPhoto courtesy of Charles E.

Throughout the football season, the Wheat Ridge High Marching Band, Flag and Rifle Team spirit was evident in their excellent display of talent and color at each home game During the games they cheered on the Farmers with such tunes as the theme from Rocky , You Are My Only Sunshine , and the Farmers Fight Song. As the Band marched down the field during the halftime shows, each beat of the drum and clap of the cymbals displayed the ultimate Farmer Feverl Cheerleaders and Pom Pons incited an old tradition this year, the Farmer Spirit Trophy. This is awarded at the end of the year to the class which has been the most spirited. Pep rallys soon became highly competitive as each class vehemently joined in on all the fun and yelling.

The hours of dedication and practice spent in overcoming the Shakespearean English and in developing the characters made the play a success. With the passing of the first anniversary of the Iranian hostage crisis and this being an election year, national spirit prompted many of the eligible seniors to vote. not only on Presidential and State Congressional candidates, but on statewide issues as Independent banking, a Light rail system and Open space. As the I98l school year progressed, a definite fever became very contagious! Students and faculty alike became caught up in the spirit of Farmer Fever!

Homecoming I33 Time-Out For Powderpuff Football With all the excitement of Homecoming activities Powderpuff football often gets overlooked. Not this yearl The competition proved stiff indeed as four teams of about twenty girls each battled for the championship position. Many of the girls were seen limping through the halls at school during the two week period of after school practices. The four teams practiced long and hard, and despite a few bruised arms and chipped fingernails the teams were ready to go when homecoming week finally arrived. The first match-up for the four teams proved to be not only exciting but exhausting for all of J,- - 1 L... the teams. Many spectators were on hand to watch the next big game as the Split Ends defeated the Awesomes 34-O and the Iron City Phillies beat the Mutilators 6-O. The powderbowl game promised to be exciting as the Split Ends with a record of 3-O were challenged by the Phillies, who held a record of 2-I. Despite the Phillies' good team work they were unable to hold back the Split Ends who went on to become the champions with a final score of 20-O.

It was a perfor- mance long to be remembered. Many of the members of Symphony Winds made All-State Orchestra and All-State Band this year. We are proud to have these talented musicians representing us. X l62 Band -J' ' Symphony Winds I9SOI98I: Dave Baca. Lori Benson. Melanie Bethel. Rob Bonar. Jill Car- stens. David Casson.

Though both programs are different. each is held to give the students an opportunity to learn more about the way in which the government is run. Each person held a particular position in order to maintain the working of the government. Elections were held for these various positions, and then bills were introduced and considered by the committees and both houses. Girls' and Boys' State proved to be a fun week for all involved as well as a very beneficial and worthwhile experience. Civitan ,.i.'l.5'i A L fi IJ -.1 .w f sy V..

The three were chosen by the Civitan Clubs of Lakewood to attend the Conference. During their four-day stay in Fort Collins, ideas and discussions were centered on today's youth and their part in gov- ernment and society. Speakers at the conference included state senator Sam Zakhem. and Don Shaw from Jefferson County.

Youth In Government l73 Rocky Mountain Retreat! up! all The last weekend in March 36 people, faculty and stu- dents, participated in an all-school retreat. No, these people were not a select group of students. Every person went of his own ac- cord. What the retreat ob- jective called for was some- one wanting to help single out some main problems of Wheat Ridge High and then to follow up by determining and carrying out some long- and short-range goals. The retreat began at the YMCA in Estes Park Ca la snowlj with a few icebreak- er games. Henry Roberts of Jefferson County Schools was the guest speaker for the day. His talk dealt with goal-setting and how to develop and main- tain motivation among a large group of people such as at Wheat Ridge High. Cooperation games and discussion groups brought three goals into perspec- tive: school involvement in spirit, relations of the senate to student body, and self-confidence and per- sonal awareness in each individual.

Head Coach Nancy Tucker quoted, I have thoroughly enjoyed working for nine years with the WRHS Gymnastics team. and even though I will not be the coach next year, I will be backing the Farmers all the way to State in I98Il OF the superior l98O season, four girls were chosen as the most outstanding seniors. They consisted of CeCe Burglund. Kim Malone Callae McMahon and Allison Offield. Each of these girls qualified for state in several events. The outlook for the I98O season is very Prosperous for the Farmers. As of now the team is quite small and needs to grow build in numbers back to its average size of 25 members. The Farmers have gained the poise to expand their skills and should be able to go far in the upcoming season in I98I.

In looking at the individual results of the l98O Boy's Tennis season it is apparent that Wheat Ridge has suppressed capabilities that might have surfaced, had the league not been so tough. Senior Phil Pittz, number one singles finished with a 3-8 record, Sophomore John Baer, number two singles player, had an impressive 5-6 record, and Sophomore Mike Lowe, number three singles, also had a surprising 7-4 record. Seniors, Paul Jensen and John Persichitte, the number one doubles completed the season with a 2-9 record: Juniors, Bill Gustafson and Reito Rodriguez paired up to form the number two doubles team and finished with a 2-9 record also, Senior Art Garner and Junior Lloyd Johnson composed the number three doubles team having a 3-8 records and the number four doubles team was Seniors John Resler and Larry Abeyta who had a 5-6 final record. Mr. Headlee will not be coaching again next year due to other plans. Mr. Ron Dries, last year's girls' tennis coach, will take his place. With the talent l saw this year, next year's team should be quite strong, remarked Mr. Headlee. 238 Tennis ' ixfl Y 4. Above Left: Jill Singles. Phil Pittz. concentrates on his serve.

This way you are aware of exactly what you will need to do the entire year and you need only be concerned with your section. The Art Staff is in charge of all artwork throughout the entire book, such as in the Current Events section. The Club Staff takes care of all club pictures, as well as identifying the people in them. The Photographers take nearly all P . of the pictures in the yearbook with the exception of the mug-shot photos. The Sports Staff covers all aspects of sports, group pictures and action shots as well. The Faculty Staff deals with not only the teachers, but also the administration, janitors, and cooks. The Activity Staff covers all school activities from fguxtffth Homecoming to Graduation, and from Boys and Girls State to the school musical. The Classes Staff takes care of each little mug-shot of every , . student, Along with the Senior Superlatives. The A24 I 4 Editor-in-chief proofreads all of the pages and ' gives the final O.K on layouts. Each of the staffs are a vital part of the yearbook, and without all of 5 them, the entire book would suffer. 5 Q lb. Above top: The Faculty Staff: Lisa Helm, Laurie Sherwood.

Traditionally, the Speech Team consists of 20-30 members who are involved in all forms of speech competition: debate, extemporaneous speaking, interpretations of humor, drama or poetry, duet acting and original oratory. By enrolling in Forensics l or ll, the students will receive the background information and training in their respective areas. However, any student may participate in the speech program as an extra-curricular activity. The speech season begins in September and ends with the state competition in spring. WRHS' team averages participation on IO- l5 speech tournaments yearly. Although it operates on a yearly budget of SISOO for entry fees and travel expenses, several fund raising projects are needed in order to support the program. Members of the Speech Team help to support the Forensic Program by having the following traditional fund-raising projects: November Thanksgiving Pie Sale. Carnation Vale-grams for VaIentine's Day, and the Sadie Hawkins Dance in May which is the maior event, as it usually involves a whole week of activities, ending with the dance. Team members are equally expected to participate in bake sales and other fund-raising projects. Speech Team 273 Although the Art Club had a slow start first semester, we have finally gotten a group together. Various activities include art displays throughout the school, trips to art museums. and a chance to meet new people. The Chess Club at Wheat Ridge is going strong this year, with games being played after school every night in Mr. Lohrentz's room. Although our expenses are low, an occasional fund-raiser is needed in order to purchase new chess sets. Back row Cleft to rightb: David Beedy, President John Coulthard Mark Winstead. Paul Whitt.

The memories of the past year printed on these pages are also printed in our hearts and minds. They are there for savoring. lt was a year of vast change, for the world, and our nation. lt was also a year of change for each of us. For the Sophomores it was a change from junior high to high school, and the opportunity to make many more friends. The Juniors had a chance to grow and develop their personal interests, perhaps even looking towards college and career choices. For Seniors this year brought the excitement of graduation. college choices, marriage, and the excitement of being on our own. lt also brought the sadness and reality of moving away and leaving the familiar surroundings and friends that we had grown up with over the past thirteen years.
