By late April of 1988, it was time to pass the torch off to the next class. Student council elections for 1988-89 were being held, and Kristy Chitmon, not looking altogether happy on the front page of the Golden Times, was helping the youngsters vote.
The spoof musical “It’s a Bird! It’s a Plane! It’s Superman” was to be performed May 19-21. Junior Michael Crawley got the lead part as Superman, but several of our classmates played key roles: Greg Murray as the mad scientist Abner, Brian Haggbloom as Max, Lourie Collins as Sydney, Kathy Williams as Lois, Marvin Day as Jim and John Works as Perry White.
The Quiz Bowl team came from behind in three consecutive matches in the regional tournament to make it to the 8-team championships on AETN. We won’t talk about what happened to us in the first round there.
In sports, three more of our classmates signed for athletic scholarships: Brandon Rowlett for football at Arkansas Tech, Steve Tricarico for golf at Huntingdon College in Alabama, and Paige Hammond for volleyball at Milligan College at Johnson City.
The JHS golf team was burning the greens up everywhere it went, having won a prestigious golf tournament in St. Louis and then twice broken the school record for lowest team score.
And we were all counting down the days …

Okay, I'm not sure why I'm not smiling! I'm sure I was excited to be skipping class to help the voting process! I remember trying to get of class whenever remotely possible! I especially loved being the "office assistant" last period with Steve Tricarico and Fran Bailey!
See ya!
