I feel like my skin can breathe.” Our goal was to empower young girls to become more confident in themselves without the makeup and I believe we succeeded. We feel the need to impress people with our looks and social media makes self love go way down.

For baseball, I interviewed Zeek Campbell, a senior. He said his favorite part is “traveling with the team.” He wants to improve at “throwing,” and he wanted to play because he “wants to make a few more memories as a senior” and because he played in pee wee and wanted to do it again.

Get Sprung at the 2018 Spring DancesThe Black Light Dance
One of the favorite dances at Del Norte High School is theBlack Light Dance. Every year a dance is hosted in the middleschool which is filled with black lights and neon colors. Oneof the most casual dances that the school hosts draws a crowdevery year. But, as time goes on the dance seems to be less ofan excitement. With the dwindling amounts of students thatchoose to participate in extracurricular activities and optionsin music becoming harder to come by, the dance seems to
have become almost boring. But, the sophomore class decidedto change the fate of this dying dance and revive it. As a
fundraiser this class decided to turn the event into more of a“rave” style dance and had one of the students choose themusic seeing as they are connected to the student body andknow what they will dance to. A student who would like toremain anonymous said: “the dance was much better but stillhas a ways to go”. As time goes on and more attention isbrought to this event hopefully it can be restored to its true
potential.Prom 2018
Prom is the dance that almost all upperclassmen (and a fewlucky underclassmen) look forward to from the first day ofschool. Prom has always been an event that was planned bythe junior class and this year the juniors did an exceptionaljob. The event will be held on May 5th and is on the mind ofmost and a hot topic around the school. The theme of this
exclusive dance is “A Starry Night Masquerade” and will beheld in the high school gym. The colors that were selected are:gold, silver, and dark blue. After prom which will take placeafter the conclusion of the dance at midnight is set to be at thegreen houses at Hooper Pool. After prom has always been apleasing end to an eventful night with food, games, and lots offun. Towards the end of the concluding event is the givingaway of prizes, and every student leaves with at least one. Inpast years prizes have been things such as flat screen TV’s,mini fridges, and even a Ping-Pong table. As the date drawscloser it is an excellent idea to begin finding a dress, and if atux is desired order one ASAP. The Columbine flower shop onMain Street in town has excellent options for corsages andboutonnieres that should be ordered at least a week in
advance. It is an exciting time for all those attending so enjoyyour time there if you are attending (especially the prizes)!
