AHS is proud to recognize a stu-
denl with an exceptional talent. Erin Doby, a
junior honor student, attended N.C. School of
the Arts this summer to study voice. She was
one of eleven students chosen out of 490 appli-
canu. Throughout the six weeks spent in
Winston-Salem, Erin performed in the summer
chorus, as well as three operas including the
infamous Motzart’s, ‘The Marriage of Figaro.”
In addition to her state-wide success,
Erin shares her musical talents with many people
here in Albemarle as a member of the First
Baptist Church Choir. She has recently been
accepted into a voice school in Charlotte where
she will be studying under Fran Shafter orKC a

plays first chair flute and leads the Marching
Bulldogs as drum major.
Erin would like to extend a few words
of advice: “If you have a dream, go for it and do
your best because you never know who’s w atch-
ing.” Congratulations, Erin!

extra laps. (Remember; No Pain. No Gain.)
- you thank Mrs. Hathcock for following her
syllabus so faithfully.
- you thank your parents for makLig you go to

is so much fun.)
- you thank your boyfriend or girlfriend for
taking you to Taco Bell before the prom.
- you thank your parents for asking your grand
parents to stay with you while they are out of
town. (Who would want to be home alone?)

(Don’t blame some, they voted for Dole.)

work over the weekends. (What else is there to
do?) ^
