For the first time in several years the annual Awards Program
was held at night. Mrs. Carol Kelly, Dean of Women, served as
the Mistress of Ceremonies, Kim Steward gave the welcome,
and Mr. Herring introduced the guests. The evening was
dedicated to honoring those hard - working and deserving people
who have given their all to gain valuable scholarships and
significant honors.
The presentation of awards began with a surprised Tamra Pope
receiving the prestigious Anne Knight Award for excellence in
journalism. It was a long but often touching evening. Special
moments in the ceremony came when the Ken Kirkland Tennis
Scholarship was presented by his mother to Grady Moore for
showing the characteristics exemplified by Ken Kirkland. Donna
Outlaw received the renamed Brenda K. Johns Tigerette
Scholarship given in memory of Brenda. Mrs. Bettye Lane was
stunned when Mr. Anderson presented her with $500 from the
Jay Anderson Future Award. Mr. Danny Owens received
$1,000 to buy art supplies for the school from Mr. Anderson.
There were iron ic twists to the evening's proceedings when
the DAR American History Award was won by Kristin Solli, a
Foreign Exchange student from Norway. Later in the evening,
another exchange student, lngve Walle, won the CHS American
History Award.
Thousands of dollars, beautiful plaques, certificates, and many
smiling faces went home with students and parents.
Kristin Solli endeared herself to many while visiting CHS. Her
knowledge of American History was recognized at the
ceremony.
