Activity
Night
a Huge
Hit
Friday, February 8th
sparked the beginning of sucessful activity nights. There was
a huge turnout and the ping pong tournament was intense. Cameron
Reister stated, “We used it as an alternative to the dance
since people haven’t been attending.” The activity
night consisted of music through an iPod, Guitar Hero, Rock Band,
an open gym, and a ping pong tournament. In the tournament, Brett
Linehan and Dane deQuilettes were finalists and Dan Campbell was
the overall champion. |

The ASB plans to host
another activity night sometime in the spring and are hoping to
have an indoor soccer tournament, as well. If you don’t
have something to do on the date of the next activity night, you
definitely should go to it. There’s something for everyone
to enjoy and it’s better than sitting alone at home!

These
Tables
Are
For
The
Birds
It was a pleasant winter day. The annual staff was
hard at work on pages that were due in a few weeks. The room was
unusually quiet, diferent from the normal gossip uproars. JoLynn
Williams reached across the table to her bag. Then...
“cheep-cheep”
“cheep-cheep”
“cheep-cheep”
The whole room looks up. How did a bird get into the classroom?
As it turns out, there was no bird. The culprit:
an old table, joints creaking from years of wear. But this table
wasn’t the only problem. The metal pieces from two others
were falling apart. Nuts and bolts could be found on the floor
every day.
Finally, Mr. Robinson, the owner of the tables, placed an order
with the custodians to get new ones. It was a glorious moment
when the new tables arrived. As a whole, the annual staff tracked
down the hallway to receive the new gift.
Now, there are no animal-like distractions or random pieces falling
off the tables. The students can finally learn in peace.
