Thank you! Thank you! Honors given at Woodlan Junior-Senior High are well respected and deserved. The big night for high school students was a big one to remember, especially for the valedictorian David Stieglitz who took sev- eral awards home. The salutatorian for 1985 was Alyce Stiebeling. The athletic blanket winners were Amy Anderson. Lynn Meinerding, Luann Pusey, Joni Smith, and Doug Bentrager who also re- ceived a $200 scholarship from the Boost- er Club. The mental attitude awards went to Matt Schelker, Joni Smith and Sherry Hoover. The big night for junior high students took place during the school day. Awards for athletic participation and special aca- demic awards were given. These awards also encouraged those junior high students to do their best during these years. Wood- lan takes pride in its students and award- ed them for their accomplishments. Senior valedictorian David Stieglitz receives one of his many awards. Junior high students receive their recognition from Mr. Pond, guidance counselor.

Sound of Music Junior Janet McKinley instructs the band to hit the perfect note. Drum rolls at pep sessions, the school song, and the National Anthem at games — Woodlan ' s band is always sup- porting our school. In June and August, Woodlan ' s band practiced five days a week from 8:00 a.m. until 12:00 p.m. Also, during the summer they marched in Woodburn Days, Harlan Days, Grabill Country Fair, and Bluffton Street Fair to show their pride for the com- munity. When school began, the band started competing. One big competition was the regional competition in which they partici- pated. This is the farthest Woodlan ' s band has ever gone. As Mr. Snider said, We have a long way to go but we ' ve come a very great distance, too. They were rat- ed on music as well as marching tech- niques. Woodlan felt proud to have the band go so far. Along with competition, practices, and games, they raised money by selling ap- proximately one thousand candy bars. The money was used to replace uniforms, flags, and other equipment. One senior band member found band to be quite a challenge during the school year. The senior commented by saying, Mr. Snider was a Bobby Knight, but for band! As for being Bobby Knight, Mr. Snider instructed band members to hit high and low notes to make the sound of Carr..r-,ui ' , .:. ; Rector, ..ic-r ■ . ; Selton. Row 4: Tin. 0. M.!.baum.
