When summer is j finally here, there is a rush of excitement as students get ready for freedom at last. Even though the weather may feel like summer year round, there is still anticipation for what those three months have to offer. Some students spend their summer days seeking adventure, traveling all over the world, while others find fun adventures at home like going the beach to get that perfect tan. Many will visit colleges and even take classes in anticipation for what they will experience in the future when they eventually graduate from Pine Crest.

efore embarking on their last year at the Pine, the Class of 2016 spent the summer trekking across the globe, enjoying their final worry-free days under the sun. Across forty-two countries and six different continents, our PC panthers became rock climbers, art historians, surfers, and advocates for the world’s principal causes. Seniors Abby Tartell and Eliza Moldow spent the summer iving on a catamaran in the British Virgin Islands with fifteen other people doing arine research, tagging turtles, and learning to sail. They reminisce: “Swimming longside sharks, turtles, and stingrays in the clear, blue water made us never iwant to leave.” However, they say their favorite part wasn't the activities they did; it was the friendships and memories they made. Looking up at the night’s countless stars at night and exploring, learning, and laughing all together made i it an unforgettable experience. “It’s true what they say: life’s better in the BVI.” ^Isabelle Turner had the privilege of traveling to Peru, immersing herself in Peruvian ■culture over three weeks. A favorite destination was Casa Mantay, a safe haven for ■ brls under the age of 18 who have been shunned from their families for being raped. Pf)nce they are pregnant, they are even banned from going to school. “Even though hey had been through so much, they still had a smile on their face,” Turner recalls.

Later in the trip, Isabelle set off for a four day hike through the mountains of Lares, Peru. Because the trail was covered in 2 feet of snow, the group had to divert from the original route. She remembers, “One night, it got down to 30 degrees and all we had was a sleeping bag to keep us warm! The hike was one of the most exhausting yet exhilarating experiences I have ever participated in.” The group woke up at 5 AM for the paramount experience of the trip, a 2000-step hike to Machu Picchu. It took almost an hour and a half, but “watching the sunrise come over the mountains was worth it.”

The senior class traipses onto the sand, greeting friends and snapping pictures with only excitment for what lies ahead. The sun shoots up more quickly now, and the greetings turn to laughs, which later become the treasured

memories that bind us all together. Arms slung around one another’s shoulders, cameras click from all directions as we document our last first Friday. It’s 7:45 now, and the sun’s fully up. Armed in black, we turn our backs to the sun and get ready to take over; it’s time rel6n.

hile the August heat is overwhelming on the first day of sehool, it's certainly good to be back after summers spent scattered across the globe. It seems intimidating, those sturdy brick walls we have all grown to know, after so much time apart. It feels as if knowledge pours from the crevices of each brick, flooding the halls. With a deep breath, however, the flowing motion of knowledge becomes white noise, buzzing with excitement while students reconnect with friends after three months

apart. This is the secret to Pine Crest: there’s just a certain feeling in the halls that makes this school home. It’s in the way students feel winded that first time hiking up three flights of stairs after a long summer. It’s the dread in walking to gym or art when it’s pouring that torrential Florida rain. It’s the teachers, students, and administrators coming together that really do make it great to be back. This one’s for the green and the white and an unforgettable school year that lies ahead.

Breaking out onto the scene can be a challenge for the new kids, but it seems like the Class of 2019 can handle themselves pretty well in the terrifying waters of Pine Crest’s Upper School. Standing tall (well, tall enough, seeing as most of them haven’t hit their growth spurts), the freshmen took on PC life and embraced it as their own, dress code and all. As it turns out, “high school” is a glorified term for more work, less sleep, and spending more money at the student store than your parents really know about. In no time at all, late nights of physics and chill start to add up and the ninth grade class is well on their way to elevating their status in the hierarchy of high school. But they don't move up without looking back on all of the defining moments of the year, remembering Homecoming, Febfest, and an endless blur of fire drills (of which there were probably thousands). With that in mind, this group is more than ready for the next three years and the good times that are bound to come with them.

T The leaves change colors, the air turns crisper, and pumpkin spice everything is served; fall is here...except for the fact that Floridians cannot feel a change in the overwhelming heat and humidity, and our green, swaying palm trees fail to transform into the beautiful orangey-red foliage associated with fall time. Nevertheless, as August arrives, Pine Crest students make the transition from carefree summertime back into school mode. Even though the weather stays in the high 80s, the spirit of fall is present on campus as friends meet up after a long summer apart and get back into the swing of things here at the Pine. With fall comes not only the infamous Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Latte, but also the most anticipated event of the school year: Homecoming. Besides, who really needs the picturesque leaves to change color when the Upper School students dress up in red, orange and yellow class colors?

n excited energy was in the air as the Class of 2016 arrived in the Lower School Courtyard on the morning of Senior Service Day. The crowd thinned out as groups began to leave, going off to various charity projects around South Florida. Some seniors would find themselves planting trees for community gardens; others would revel in the joys of working with children at daycare centers or working at other projects.

Senior Izzy Lopez volunteered at In Jacob’s Shoes, an organization that refurbishes and redistributes shoes to people in need. “Today reminded me that there is a world much bigger than any one person. I’m thankful to be in my current circumstances, today helped me remember that.” Her experience volunteering prompted her to continue giving back, which she hopes to do in the future. Senior Eliza Moldow was very humbled after volunteering at Feeding South Florida, where she sorted food to be given to those who would otherwise go

hungry. “It’s just an incredible feeling, to give back, I never realized what a problem hunger was in our area or how easy it was to make such an impact.” Eliza and her friends sorted over 5,000 different food items during their short time at the repurposing plant. Service Day is more than just a senior tradition, it is a beloved reminder that a life exists outside of school and the daily ups and downs of senior life. Senior Service Day has broadened the mindsets of seniors in past years and will continue to do so in the future.

he girls’ swim team certainly made a splash this season with their impressive ten and two record. As district and regional champs, the pressure was on for states. With the absence of their top swimmer, Marta Ciesla, the prospect of going to states seemed frightening. But for competitive athletes, there is no time to simply test the waters. These girls took it upon themselves to dive right in, both physically and metaphorically, in order to come in 4th place at states. The men’s team had an incredible season as well, with an eight and four record. After being crowned district champions and regional runner up, their road to states seemed to be pointing toward victory.

At states, however, the team was competing with only eight athletes. Would they sink or would they swim? Swimming it was, as they were the runner up at states as well. Austin Fields notably won a gold medal for his diving expertise. The team made strides both in and out of the pool, coming together as a unit with common goals and aspirations. Everybody was needed and contributed all that they had to a historic season. Senior Ryan Graff commented on the future of the PC swimming crew. “Wehope that the team continues thetradition of success on the Pine Crest swim team and sees many state champions. We wish the team good luck in the future!

he 2015 Pine Crest Football Panthers enjoyed a historic season. It was the first year of new Head Coach Troy Harrison’s tenure and the first year in which Pine Crest had two players voted as the best at their positions in South Florida. It was also the first season with the new matte green helmets and the first season in which a Pine Crest Head Coach was voted Conference Coach of the Year, which consistently brought Panthers fans to fill the stands on Friday nights. Captains Mark Cibene, Eddie Soto, Noah Dearman, and Timmy Cox held a team meeting, during which the team underwent a transformation. “Newspapers said we’d be at the bottom of our conference,” explained senior Eddie Soto. This team faced many challenges including coaching changes, the loss of several seniors, and a new offensive line. Like true champions, however, they did not let these obstacles keep them from having a great season. After the Pine Crest Football Team went 1-2, the Pine Crest Football Family went 7-0—including a win in the homecoming game for the first time in three years! SheuleFANS from around the school came together on homecoming to support the football

team, resulting in an epic victory by the Panthers; they certainly gave the school something to cheer about. The Panthers became a family, a tight-knit group of players who were quick to poke fun at one another but even quicker to have each other’s back. They could not have achieved these tremedous successes alone, so they would like to thank everyone who contributed to this unbelievable season.

“ AFTER THE PINE CREST FOOTBALL TEAM WENT 1-2, THE PINE CREST FOOTBALL FAMILY WENT 7 -0 ”

Thank you: • Athletic Training Staff, especially Garrick and Ivan, for managing to keep us on the field and intact throughout the season. • Pine Crest football fans for making each football game an event and always filling the stands. • Coach Harrison for bringing a new, exciting culture to Pine Crest Football • Coach Hibbs for bringing a new defense and toughness to the team, which at one point held opponents to 10 points combined in 3 total games. • Administration for all their support throughout the season, especially during Homecoming Week

In whal was supposed to be a rebuilding year, ers tois year wito toeir commilmenf and cooperation.

The best of the best, this year's cross counfry runners have proved themselves once again to be faster than ever before. oth the girls’ and the boys’ cross country teams had an amazing season this year, continuing the tradition of running greatness. Practice really does seem to pay off, as the girls won pre-states by beating all the teams in Florida, and even some from out of state. This led them to states, where the competition was made even tougher after two of the top seven athletes were injured. This was not a hurdle in their path, however, and the girls still placed second for the fourth year in a row.

042

The boys kept an undefeated record all year, leading them to states. Even with this intense competition, they overcame their rival, Bolles, for the first time all season. Girls’ captain Julia Montgomery expressed her excitement for next year’s runners. “There are several young runners moving up to high school next year and a strong group of seniors that will make a comeback at states next year. The boys also have a very strong senior class that will lead the younger boys to a podium finish at states.”

art of playing a team sport is team dynamic. After adding several players to their team this year, the girls volleyball had to work twice as hard to develop a dynamic that would help them both on and off the court. Senior captain Caitlin Harvey remembers the precise moment when it finally came together. “After multiple team sleepovers filled with horror movies and High School Musical, something finally clicked. Our confidence in our talents and in each other showed in our game.” Although they suffered a few losses at the beginning of the season, the girls came back stronger than ever, beating Calvary in a nailbiting 5-set match. The girls went on to beat Cardinal Gibbons at districts for the first time since 2007. With pride, Harvey thanks the people who got the team where they did this season.

“None of this would have been possible without the help of our amazing coaches. Stan, Annika, and Perry, thank you for always believing in us and for circling the wagon every day.” The team also wants to thank head coach, Albert Sturgeon, for being such a phenomenal coach and for always being a part of their support system on and off the court. The girls would be lost without his inspirational stories, and endless knowledge of statistics (apparently 70% of all passes are from the left! Who knew?). The seniors want to thank the entire coaching staff for teaching the morals that will carry with them through their lives; because of Coach Albert especially, they have all reached the horizon. To the future of PCVB, the seniors know you will continue to improve and achieve greatness.

“ AFTER MULTIPLE TEAM SLEEPOVERS FILLED WITH HORROR MOVIES AND HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL SOMETHING FINALLY CLICKED”

Even with eight new players, this year's PCVB squad was lighter than ever, making this year a tremendous success both on and off the court

together to celebrate a winning point.

Aiming for foe stars, this year’s golf team shattered expectation's with their myriad of wins and records.

he sport of golf is all about staying ahead of the curve. If the hole should take four strokes to make par, the team scores better if they get it in three, a birdie, or two, an eagle. Even better would be to get the shot in one stroke, the famous hole in one. And this year’s girls’ golf team represents this aspect of the sport to a tee (pun intended). With an impressive record of three and five, this year’s team came the closest to making it to states in the last seven years. But patience and detennination are not all this group of girls have, as having fun always remained the most important. Senior captain Sam Haubenstock keeps this as her number one priority. “I hope the team can continue to have as much fun as we did this year,

and do just as well in the post-season!” It was an epic season for the boys’ golf team this year as well. After keeping an impressive record all season, the team was invited to play at the Honda Classic. This tournament showcases some of the best teams nationally. Senior Captain Matt Jacobs gushes about his experience. “We got to play one of the best courses in the country. It was a lot of fun, a lot of good memories.” After coming first in their district shooting a 297, the team moved on to states. “It was an awesome accomplishment. It was the only time all year we broke 300.” Overall, it was an amazing season filled with lots of fun and lots of golf. Both senior captains wish next year’s team the best for next year’s season. “To Miles and Justin (juniors), enjoy your senior year, play well, and try to make states for the third year in a row.”

“ PATIENCE AND DETERMINATION ARE NOT ALL THIS GROUP OF GIRLS HAVE, AS HAVING FUN REMAINED THE MOST IMPORTANT.”

Bringing to life Harper Lee's tole of fhe Finch family, this year’s casf addressed racial injustice in a manner unprecedented ever before. his fall, the Fine Arts Department brought Harper Lee’s iconic novel To Kill A Mockingbird to the Pine Crest stage. For two days, these actors transformed the Pine into Maycomb, Alabama, where Tom Robinson’s infamous court trial takes place. Director Marisa Ortega prefaced each performance with a speech confronting the controversy surrounding the show with the message: “We refuse to whitewash history.” The performers got “mussed n’ dusty” trying to appropriately capture the inequality and racial bias of the time. It was our

responsibility to bring the discussion ot racial injustice to Pine Crest, and this truly shone through from the passion portrayed onstage. Countless hours of rehearsals leading up to the final performances allowed each and every actor to dive deep into his or her role and fully commit to the character. The tough preparation paid off, though, as the show was a monumental success! The TKAM fam was definitely dedicated to creating an incredible production, as long as father Atticus Finch was there to bring everyone together.

After coming in last in the race for the spirit stick last year, the Class of 2018 sought to redeem itself and stepped up its game. This year, the sophomores came in second place, taking every opportunity to showcase their feelings of everlasting love and spirit for the Pine. Whether it is driving, cutting the freshman in line at the school store, or taking on a heavier workload in school, the sophomore class has been bestowed with more responsibility. They handle this newfound responsibility with grace and pride, representing their class through sporting their bright red class shirts as they parade through Pine Crest’s hallways with their heads held high.

Mr. Lemole!

M A R IA B A LLES TER O S “C h o c o la te milk!"

As the temperature plummets to below zero and the snow begins to fall from the gloomy and depressing somber skies of the North, South Florida’s sun persists, smiling at us from above. The best part about winter is receiving our favorite Schoology update from Mr. Pierson informing us that the following day will be one in which we can all sport our Pine Crest sweatpants. However, life is not so chill at Pine Crest as students focus on their impending semester exams, the first for freshmen, and the last for seniors. Not to worry though, students will have ample time to cool off during their holiday break.

Led by a talented group of seniors, this year's squad lit up Stacy Gym in an unprecedented season he Boys’ Basketball team really cranked up the heat this year. Although they began the season as the underdogs, they certainly proved to the school that they were in it to win it. Chris Marzouca describes their shocking win against Miami Country Day as the turning point of their season. “We worked hard the entire game, and as a result we pulled out the W. That’s when I realized we were going to be even better than everyone thought we were going to be.” Just as all teams do, the boys faced many challenges throughout the season. Chris reveals that their greatest challenge was their vertical

disadvantage, as their tallest man was a whopping 6’4. They always had to outsmart and outwork the other teams, but this never deterred this determined group. “We were outmatched every single game, but we did what our coaches told us to, and we pulled out a winning record.” Throughout the season, the boys were beyond thankful for the unwavering support of their coaches as well as the guidance of their amazing senior role models. The boys are ready to “work hard this summer and come back better than ever next season.”

Wirh an enthusiastic team of fresh faces, this year's Pine Crest cheerleaders are a jump above the rest!

PHOTOGRAPHYI LINDSEY BORNSTEIN& GINGERHOLLANDER STORYI MADDIE HAGE& JODIE KAHAN

he cheerleaders for basketball definitely grew closer as a team this year, conquering stunts and routines that they had never tried before. And their spirit certainly showed, as they appeared at all of the games loud and proud to represent Pine Crest. As it is the seniors last time showing their spirit on the PC courts, the juniors did everything in their power to make seniors’ last season a special one. Junior Maddie Hage explains that on Senior Night, the juniors really had to step up. “It’s a time where the underclassmen work together to give the seniors one last send off. The cheerleaders decorated the gym, gave gifts to the seniors, and learned an entirely new routine just for that night. I think we really got to show our leadership skills.” And the team could not have had its season without the help of their incredible coaches, Coach Paul-Hus and Coach Blackwell. PC will really miss the spirit that this group of cheerleaders brought to the school, but next year’s new additions to the team are sure to continue the flow of Panther pride.

he Pine Crest Girls’ Weightlifting team show that lifting weights isn’t just for boys. Initially, many of the girls joined the team to enhance their primary sport. As senior Emily See commented, “Generally, everyone’s just trying to build up strength for their other sport.” Quickly, however, it became clear that this season was going to be different. Slowly but surely, the girls came together to form a close knit team. It seems that

all of their training resulted in the formation of a powerhouse weightlifting team. “It is an open group of people who have grown in numbers this year, and took on a task past teams could have never imagined.” And with all this growth comes big ideas for the future. “This unified group is clearly open for newcomers and has growing expectations for the years to come.”

“ SLOWLY BUT SURELY. THE GIRLS CAME TOGETHER TO FORM A CLOSE KNIT TEAM”

Onward and upward, Ihesi girls are raising fhe bar for slrenglh and competition j among our athletes.

I . Caroline Roschman (12) showed she certainly has the music in her performance as the Fairy Godmother in this year's production of Cinderella.

or two lovely nights, Pine Crest’s production, Cinderella, dazzled audiences of all ages. Senior lead Elizabeth Pouzzouli, who played Cinderella, absolutely loved her experience in the musical. “Over the course of months, the cast became a family.” Junior member, Brian Meller, agrees with Elizabeth, stating, “Saturday rehearsals did not even feel like work; they were just so enjoyable.” Although Cinderella is a well known story, the Pine Crest team put together a unique performance. “It was hard to make the story feel like something new when so many of the audience

members already knew the plot line.” Despite this, the performers brought new levels to this classic story and stole the show. As for next year’s musical, the rising seniors hope to outdo their performance from this year and continue to grow as a unit. An especially enjoyable part of the journey was the potluck dinner. Brian states, “It was a great time to come together and bond as a group.” The magic of Cinderella will tide the student body over to next year’s performance where PC will again be dazzled.

These words all have one thing in common: they are all used to come to diplomatic solutions to problems. In delegation sizes of around twenty. Pine Crest Students represented a number of countries at NSUMUN, HMUN, and NHSMUN. Using our parliamentary toolbox, and guidance from Mr. Snyder and Mrs. Sollitto, we

worked with other students from around the globe to resolve issues such as the threat from ISIS, Scientific Development, cyber security, and food security. In addition to our committee, sessions, we also spent time exploring the cities where these conferences are based, and got to know our fellow delegates better. As the PCMUN team, we all want to extend our gratitude to the sponsors, especially Mrs. Sollitto, for making MUN the best experience it can be.

Q: Why do you think it's important for people (especially young people) to go out and vote in the election? A: It’s especially important for everybody, especially young people, to vote in the upcoming election. This election will be possibly the most important election of our entire lives, especially considering the next President may get the chance to nominate at least one Supreme Court justice. Not only is it important for people to vote though, but also it is also important the people who are voting are educated about the different candidates and what they stand for. Q: What's the political culture like around Pine Crest? A: There are many people at Pine Crest who are politically active, which I believe is a good thing. Unfortunately, there are still some students who blindly believe in what their parents believe in. Especially this year though, I think more students at Pine Crest are taking the time to become educated on the different candidates because they realize how important this election truly is. Q: Which candidate will you be supporting in the upcoming election, and why? . A: Although I won’t be old enough to vote, I will be supporting Hillary Clinton in the upcoming election. I think that the media gives Clinton a hard time for no reason and that people make a big deal out of insignificant scandals. I see Clinton as a strong, capable person who will lead this country in the right direction on both social and economic issues. At this point in time of my life, social issues (such as gun control and abortion) are the most important to me and I agree with Clinton’s position on both of those issues. Q: What's your opinion on how the 2016 Presidential race is going thus far? M A: I think that the presidential race this year has gotten out of hand. Between violence and incited racism, the presidential race is having a huge impact on our country just by exposing everybody to some terrifying rhetoric. While the media is partly to blame for the attention given to the more radical candidates, it is mostly the American people’s fault for buying into some of the more ridiculous things that have been said in this election. Q: What caused you to have the political views that you have today? A: I have always been very interested in politics. Since I was little, I have kept myself educated and up to date on political issues. I know which issues are important to me and align myself politically with the candidate who stands for what I stand for.

Q: Why do you think it's important for people (especially young people) to go out and vote in the election? A: An educated electorate is a prerequisite for democracy. If people do not know who/what they’re voting for when they submit their ballots, they are negatively affecting not only es but everyone around them. Yes, voting is our right, very fact that we have that right is a privilege. Young people have the most to lose or gain in any political election as these elections help shape the future of this country. Take the time to be informed, take your vote seriously, and do your job as an American and vote. If you do not do these things, don’t complain when the government is disappointing you. You had your shot and you chose to sit on the sidelines. Q: What’s the political culture like around Pine Crest? A: What’s nice about Pine Crest is you often have students who are informed about the election and it leads to good discussions regardless of political ideologies:' Sometimes students don’t necessarily know how to back their stances, as they are simply parroting their parents. Most of the time, however, students are pretty informed and open-minded when discussing the topics. Of course, these discussions can get heated and sometimes ■ shallow, but they tend to be productive. R Q: Whicff candidate will you be supporting in the upcoming election, and why? A: I would have loved for John Kasich and Jeb Bush to do better in the primaries, but I voted for Marco Rubio as it was the best opportunity do stop Trump in the Florida primary. I believe in a Republican party with a head and a heart, and I feel Trump is too divisive and reckless. I think it’s sad that both parties are splitting further from the middle and that the Republican party is trending away from logic and toward hate. If it’s Hillary vs. Trump in the general election, then I don’t know what I'll do. America loses either way in that scenario, as neither can be trusted as leader of the free world. There’s plenty of time before I have to cast that vote for the less bad candidate Q: What’s your opinion on how the 2016 Presidential race is going thus far? A: The 2016 Presidential race has been an embarrassment to the American people. The primary election process has to be reformed. The candidates are feeding off of the stupidity of the * masses, and it is about to lead to arguably the worst major party candidates in a general election in the history of this country. Q: What caused you to have the political views that you have today ?a..... A: I would be lying if I said that my upbringing and religion do _ not affect my views, but they are not the only factors that have ' led to my political views. I am always reading up on the issues and discussing them with people of all different ideologies. The fact that my family left Venezuela when I was young to flee from a growing and oppressive socialist government definitely affected me as well. I believe in small government, a strong military, and the effectiveness of the free market. I also believe in charity and helping the less fortunate, but I do not believe that is the role of the government. iran

Throughout Homecoming Week, you may have thought to yourself, is that a huge blow-up whale being thrown in the air? Don’t worry, you are not having sleep-deprived hallucinations. That is, in fact, a plastic whale being carried triumphantly by the junior class through the halls at Pine Crest. Although the seniors stole the whale for a brief, yet traumatizing moment, the juniors were able to get their prized possession back in their blue paint-stained hands. The whale, which basically became the mascot for the Class of 2017 during Homecoming Week, symbolizes the immense spirit and class pride of the junior class. And who could forget the year of the SchuleFAN, (iconically dubbed by Anastasia Golovkine), in which everyone on the sidelines fangirled for #12. Overall, this year has allowed juniors to embrace their upperclassmen status. Of course, this comes with the much-anticipated SAT, ACT, and every other standardized test known to mankind. But from brains to athleticism, the juniors really have it all, and this close-knit class looks forward to their impending rule over the school.

After the challenges and tribulations of the first semester at school, springtime is a much welcome change. Spring commonly represents rebirth, which may not be shown through the weather, but you can certainly feel it in the atmosphere among the students. It is the time to start off fresh for the new semester and make changes along with the season. With final exams looming in the distance, the light of summer rears its head, filling the Pine with sweet anticipation. For seniors, it’s the time to enjoy and cherish their last moments of high school, making the memories that will stay with them even after they graduate.

nil ot veteian i unneis, jumpeis, and throwers, this years track team was not only successful but also inctedibly tight-knit. Senior Noah Srour recounts, “The changes 1 have seen this team undergo over the years are astounding. Growing from a team that struggled to win districts to being a member of a team with a realistic shot at winning a state title is beyond anything I could have imagined.” And although they did have a lot of fun coming together in their team bonding activities, the team was highly competitive in and around the track. Senior Ryan Welch ran a phenomenal meet at the Bolles Bulldog Classic, running a season best or personal record in all four ot his events and winning the 3200 at the Fort Lauderdale City Championship. Billy Roy also stepped it up this year, becoming the fastest 400m runner on the team. Austin Nero, a newcomer to the track team, led the sprinters as a first-year senior. Tony Bridges continued to dominate, and as only a sophomore, Tony is one of the best long jumpers and triple jumpers in the state. In addition, Robert Pearl also stepped it up immensely this year in both shotput and discus, scoring the

most points out of any boy on the team this year. On the girls side, Simone Vreeland stepped up the intensity a ton this season, always ready to go the extra mile. Taylor Logue continued to dominate the pole vault, winning the Fort Lauderdale City Championship. Senior high jump champion Nyla Lindo was recognized as the MVP of the entire Fort Lauderdale City Championship for scoring the most points out of anyone at the meet. Ftowever, the most important thing to remember is really the friendships that were made this Noah Srour points out: year. “The thing that makes the T ra c k team the ‘PC track team’ isn’t times, wins, stats, or awards; it’s our team bond. Without that team bond we all share, I can guarantee any success we have had wouldn’t have been attainable.”

ASTOUNDING”

n its first full year as a varsity program, this year’s sailing team went above and beyond to make the Pine proud. Not only did the team compete all over Florida, but they also traveled as far as the Coast Guard Academy in New London, Connecticut for a nationwide regatta!

With only one senior, captain Lindsey Bornstein, the team was comprised of mostly underclassmen. However, that didn’t take the wind out of their sails (pun intended); they tacked and rolled all the way to the finish line, learning lots and forming friendships along the way. Junior Ariel Cassaretto is excited to see what lies in store for the team in the future, especially in the next year during her reign as captain. She tells the Crestian, “It’s definitely harder than it looks!” Although the team makes its home at the Lauderdale Yacht Club, many of its members tack on additional practices and regattas all the way from Key Biscayne to Sarasota; Coach Megan Place definitely makes the experience exciting for everyone, pushing both newbies and veterans to their fullest potential on the water. (I would add another sailing pun here, but I don’t want to go overboard.) Sail fast!

Hil, run, score! Pine Cresl baseball players don't let the tear of striking out hold them back.

ith the hardest part of the schedule already behind them, the Boys’ Baseball team has a 5-4 record, setting them up for a great rest of the season. Senior captain Aram Leighton remembers a highlight of the season with pride. “It was definitely our walk-off win against North Broward Prep in our home opener. We had to face one of the best pitchers in the country that game and it has made us feel like we can compete against anyone.” With this morale, they were able to overcome great adversity throughout the season. “We have overcome a lot of injuries so far. Younger guys have had to step up and fill in, and some of the older guys have had to pick up the slack. The good news

is we are finally starting to get healthy and come to form.” And if this doesn’t prove this team’s strength, the trials they faced during the “Panther Challenge” before the season’s start certainly does. “We were split up into teams and had to come to school at 6 am to compete in grueling physically activities. We had to push our bodies to our limits, but we got each other through it, and it really brought us together.” Sticking together, these boys can conquer anything, Aram is sure of that. “This team is really special. While we may not be quite as talented as some of the teams we’ve had in recent years this team has more grit, determination than any team I’ve ever been a part of.”

his year, the boys’ volleyball team killed their season. Despite losing nine critical senior members from last year, they cc have managed to remain undefeated with their impressive statistics of 4-0. Though many of the members on the team this year were new and inexperienced, senior Luke Mansour explains, “We came together as a team during our preseason tournament. Most of us had never played volleyball before, and we came out of the tournament

2-0.” He remembers the time they were able to show off their skill and team chemistry. “We lost the first set against our district rivals Saint Thomas Aquinas and came back to win the next three in a row for the win.” As the season progresses, the boys’ volleyball team hopes to continue ” their winning streak. Their objective for this season is, “to win states.” The Pine Crest community looks forward to seeing their boys’ volleyball team dominating the court.

he boys’ tennis team had an outstanding year on the court. Led by seniors Sam Dern, Elliot Seckler, and Tyler Shevin, the team came together and worked hard every day to improve and succeed. The members of the team have a unique bond. The senior leaders provide excellent insight and serve as role models on and off the court. The tennis team was extremely young this year, with three middle schoolers and two freshmen. There is a great balance between experienced veterans, Sam, Elliot, Tyler, and junior Parsa Hoghooghi, and ambitious underclassmen led by Chris Kotite, Sergey Golevnev, and Daniel Gale. With tons of talent and drive, the team performed well in both singles and doubles matches. The best win of the regular season was against last year’s State 1A Champion Sagemont Lions, in which the Panthers edged out the opponent 4-3 in matches in an exciting win.

Coach Farhan Malik inspired the team all season long to leave every last drip of sweat on the court. The seniors hope that the tennis team will continue to improve, win, and represent PC professionally in the coming years. Coming off of a state championship win in their 2015 season, the girls varsity tennis team has come back stronger than ever. Despite losing three starting seniors, the team is still as close as it was before and with only two seniors on the team this year, it’s young talent is setting the stage for successful years to come, the team is starting fresh this year with a new head coach, and the teamwork of the players is obvious on and off the court, even though the skills of these players are amazing, the best part about being on the team is the friendship between all the girls and we always look forward to this time of the year.

Raising expectations, this year’s team strengthened their bonds and their arms in the weight room. he boys’ weightlifting team has been able to pick up quite a few wins this season. In fact, at least one person in nearly every class has pulled their weight and made it to Districts! Among these victories was Archbishop McCarthy with a score of 62-24, demonstrating Pine Crest’s ability to receive first place in almost every weight class. According to co-captains Aaron Srour and Mark Cibene, the weightlifting team was able to overcome the “transition as a team under new guidance

with Coach Hibbs and stay focused as a team on winning at the meets.” Though they had many new people on the team this year, the older members were able to “successfully teach them the proper techniques needed in order to be successful as weightlifters.” For next year, the weightlifting team hopes to “continue adding more people to the team and get more people to qualify for regionals and states.” The Pine Crest Community looks forward to keeping track of the advancements of the weightlifting team in seasons to come!

After four years of walking through these hallowed halls, our time at Pine Crest is finally coming to an end. The feeling is bittersweet; our reign as the Class of 2016 has made us unstoppable, yet we are eager to exchange our panther collars for t-shirts and winter coats. As we skip the student store line for one final cookie, drive into our painted spots one last time, or shout “Seniors!” in one more assembly, it dawns on us that maybe we’ll miss these red bricks more than we are willing to admit. The Pine Crest we entered as innocent freshmen is not the same one we leave behind. Our class has bid goodbye to beloved library furniture, seen the construction of the iLab, and welcomed with open arms an entirely new administration. With each change our Panther Pride has only grown, and as we journey into an unknown world, we know that Pine Crest will )e our home.

hat does it mean to be a Pine Crest Lifer? We have been together for fourteen years of our short lives. We have seen the same faces, wandered the same halls, and still never found out what’s in a crispito. Lifers have a common bond that no one else on campus can understand. From people who are still the best friends they were since the first day of Pre-K to people who only give a friendly nod in the hallways, Lifers know Lifers; simple as that. We are the Pine Crest Lifers, and our story began in Pre-Kindergarten under the majestic bell tower, so tall and white. Long before Sandy was serving up doughnuts in the Union, the Boca kids took a Tri-Rail trip to the Krispy Kreme factory. And in the days before we had a PCTV truck, PCNN was producing arguably the greatest show of all time—its version of “Who Wants to be a Millionaire?” While PCFL kids were busy wearing Merrells and blazers, the Boca campus enjoyed Fall Fun Day, Safari Day, DEAR Day, Earth Day shows, and so many other unforgettable events. The kids from the 954 remember milking cardboard cows, taking home Pooh-Bear for sleepovers, and crow-ing their first notes in a Pine Crest play as Cock-a-doodle Dandy. None of us will ever forget the year that Christopher Columbus sailed over the ocean blue, compound word day, where the sawgrass meets the sky. Country Fairs, or the big tree on the playground (RIP- we still keep you in our memories). On the Boca campus, who didn't love chicken patties, the amazing pizza slices, the fresh foods from li

Chef Don's garden, and the many other fantastic meals offered to us by Oswald and his pals? And what did PC Boca do to handle the adversity of the cafeteria renovations? Instead of panicking, we spent a year with catered Mario’s pizza and Mrs. Zecca’s lunchtime Full Flouse episodes. Boca lifers experienced the thrill of a school-year birthday, when Mrs. Price would bring you a ribbon, you brought in cake, you shared it with every student, teacher, and coach you knew, and you got to see your name on the screen during Community Building Assemblies. And here we are in high school. The past four years have flown by in the blink of an eye. From the first day of High School opening day ceremony, where we were unceremoniously booed, to our final year, where we won the spirit stick, our class has come together as one family. People tend to go their separate ways in high school, and Lifers are no exception. However, this year, our final year at the Pine, you can see people who have not been the best of friends coming together to have what may be their last conversation, smiling bigger at someone in the hallways, or attending a game or musical just because. Lifers have been together for fourteen years, and we may be going to opposite comers of the country next year, but we won’t be far apart. So what does it mean to be a Lifer? It means to be a part of a special group at Pine Crest, a group that truly knows each other and their school. These memories might mean nothing to anyone else, but for those who understand, we will miss it forever.

SENIOR SPOTLIGHTS Q: What exactly is your talent? A: My talent is that I can jump-rope and pogo stick at the same time, and I can even do criss cross jump rope. Q: How did this begin? A: This started when 1 was in middle school. I was at a friend’s house, and he had a pogo stick that I was determined to learn how to use. Then once I learned that, I remembered my brother being able to jump rope and decided to give it a try. Soon enough I was multi-tasking like never before. Q: What do you think this says about who you are? A: It may show I like to challenge myself or something, but really I was just doing it for fun, and I thought it would be a cool thing to say about myself. Q: And for the future? A: I am not to sure there are many useful applications of this outside of clown school, so mostly I will just tell people about it if they need a fun fact about me.

): What do you hope your art says to those viewing it? A: When I’m in the process of making my art I truly don’t hope anything. I believe art is subjective because reality is subjective. If anything, I’d love to hear from the viewer that my art resonates with them as much as the the finished visual resonates for me. Q: Are there any obstacles you face with your art? A: I have more internal than external obstacles when creating. A lot of the time I feel like what I do isn’t art or it simply doesn’t “count” as art. My ideas are very minimal and come easily to me, so I discount the finished product. Q: What are your plans with your art for the future? A: I want to make art on a larger scale with my own photos (I’ve been learning a lot about film photography lately). I want to make a brand, collaborate, and get better at realistic drawing. Finally, I want to make art that fully encapsulates how I feel and what I see. My art is abstract already, but I censor my creative ideas for the sake of following protocol. I want to break free of my fear of being too eccentric and fully dive into my morbidly beautiful and raw sensations. Q: When did you start baking and why? A: I started baking at the beginning of my 9th grade year of high school. I found that having a plate of brownies or a batch of cookies put a unique twist on my presentations and made all my friends and teachers smile. Q: Why do you like to bake? A: I like to bake because it helps me relieve my stress. Plus, at the end of the day, I wind up with a plate (or more) of fun desserts! Q: People often think of you as "really good with computers" but never as a baker. Make a comment about this. A: I definitely fee! that while technology may be one of my passions, it isn't my only hobby. It is always nice having that hidden talent that people get to see when you surprise them with a chocolate souffle! Q: Will you continue this hobby in the future and in what respect? A: I will most definitely continue cooking in the future. Over the next few years I hope to expand my breadth of recipes to include more and more desserts.

“ULIe did it!!!!" Twelve years at the Pine, and all I can hear is Elle Woods’ squeal as she stands on the stage at the Harvard Law School graduation. (Okay, so maybe Pine Crest isn’t exactly Harvard Law, but it often felt just as difficult). Together, we fought through the SAT’s, went through not one, not two, but three administrations, and somehow all made it to graduation in one piece. UUe went from the bottom of the Homecoming scoreboard freshman year to somehow wining the Spirit Stick as seniors. LUe were even so d e d ic a te d to connecting with one another that we extended class bonding to study hall this year. Joking aside though, I truly am so impressed by the achievements of every single one of my peers. Among us are thirty athletic recruits, two pilots, thirteen twins (see p a g e I 59 for details), seventy-eight lifers, sixteen countries of origin, and Hunter LUasserman, who plays the drums (in case you weren’t aware). But more importantly, there are two hundred and two Pine Crest graduates. Two hundred and two students who have laughed at Mr. Walters’ corny jokes, eaten Mary Ellen’s student store cookies, and cheered for one another at games. Two hundred and two students who walked up to the high school on the first day of ninth grade, fresh-faced and a little bit scared, only to leave on that first day with a sigh of relief that maybe everything was going to be okay. Two hundred and two students who walked out on the last day of senior year with enduring friendships,

a world of knowledge, and memories to last a lifetime. And for the final time as a class, two hundred and two students will walk across the stage at graduation, once again fresh-faced and eager, but this time ready to take on the world. I think what’s most impressive is everything we’ve accomplished— it’s not just a lucky coincidence. It’s the passion that accompanies every single task that continues to astound me, from the hours spent in the pool (who starts practice at 5:30 AM?) to the precisely rehearsed speed with which the debaters deliver their arguments. It’s the time d e d ica te d to deriving trigonometric functions all the way to the O ld ICI, where Playing for Change singers assiduously prepare performances for us all to enjoy. No matter the task, I’ve seen it attacked with a fervor unlike any other— and somehow, you’ve all managed to make it look effortless. Kudos. LUhen I turn on the TV in twenty, ten, maybe even five years, I predict that the Class of 2016 will be acclaim ed writers, compassionate philanthropists, and nationally ranked athletes. More than that, though, I am confident that each and every one of you will be accomplished and caring individuals. After twelve years surrounded by the most truly talented and ambitious students I’ve ever come across, I can honestly say that I couldn’t have imagined my school experience anywhere else, or with anyone else. It was, indeed, one of a kind.

The times we have shared here will always be here to bring us together, not only as a community o f devoted students who share a commitment to education, character, and leadership, but as a family who has spent these cherished and unforgettable years A together. Let us never forget these bonds that we have formed and let us always appreciate what has been given to us here at the Pine.

OR NS n music, a change in key is called a modulation. It’s a challenge to achieve, especially for a large group of musicians. Everyone must be on the same page, and everyone must learn to adapt to the change in sound. This year, the PC band has had to do exactly this, as a new band director, Dr. Kinney, has joined the PC faculty. Senior percussionist Hunter Wasserman explains, “Working with a new band director is always a new challenge, but developing a relationship with the director and being able to connect your section with the director is

the best way to establish the greatest sound.” The band’s work to achieve this perfect sound certainly paid off, as it was able to perform at the district level for the solo/ ensemble competition, MPA. Wasserman credits the success of the performance to “hard work, focus, and determination.” Although the seniors are graduating, they are eager to see where the underclassmen lead the band next. “We realize the vast potential the talented underclassmen have, and we all hope they can steer the band in a direction that will allow them to achieve their personal and team goals in the future.”

THE BAND'S WORK TO ACHIEVE THIS PERFECT SOUND CERTAINLY PAID OFF"

t Pine Crest, it seems like everyone’s good at something. Movies and broadcast journalism, for this group, is extraordinarily exciting. For the fifth year, the PCTV crew attended STN, or Student Television Network, an annual convention for film and broadcast journalism. This year the convention took place in Atlanta, Georgia, where Pine Crest won several awards. Senior member Lindsey Bornstein talks about her team with pride. “We won 8 awards at STN this year, the best we’ve ever done. It’s good to know our hard work is paying off. I’m so proud

of everyone.” Between the homecoming shows and short films produced, this is a group who is certainly not lacking in talent. Perhaps what makes this team so unique, however, is their inseparable bond. “The crew has an unbreakable bond. We’re seriously like family. We have fun together without fail.” So although the family will be changed next year with this year’s seniors graduating, Lindsey is confident the PCTV crew will continue their winning streak. “I know that you are all so talented and will continue to excel in your future endeavors in PCTV.”

"THE CREW HAS AN UNBREAKABLE BOND. WE'RE SERIOUSLY LIKE FAMILY"

he Pine Crest Debate Team had an exciting and successful year. Every year, the debate team at the Pine works tirelessly to research evidence on interesting and significant political and social topics, practice and develop strategies, and travel the country to compete. Under the leadership of Senior Tyler Shevin, Junior Josh Jacobs, and Junior Jacob Couture, the team strived as a tight-knit unit. Coaches Hammond and Lewis guided the team, serving as mentors and strategic guides. The team traveled across the nation including to Chicago, Dallas, Ann Arbor, Austin, and Atlanta and throughout Florida in state and local tournaments. At the University of Texas, Josh Jacobs, Zachary Vlessing, Jack Rubenstein, and Sachet Paharia had a great tournament and at the University of Georgia,

the team had an outstanding performance all around. In February, the team hosted the annual Crestian Policy Debate Tournament, in which debaters throughout the country traveled to Fort Lauderdale to compete on our campus. The future of PC Debate is extremely bright, led by dedicated and enthusiastic Sophomores Jack Rubenstein, Sachet Pacharia, Zachary Vlessing, and Emily Tomchin. In addition, the novices or first year debaters improved greatly throughout the year and broke to elimination rounds at national tournaments at the University of Michigan and the University of Texas. The members of the debate team cooperate and work together to create a competitive yet friendly environment for intellectual discussions, learning, and way more humor than it may seem from the outside. Masters of their craft, the debaters are excited to make lasting bonds, travel, improve, and win next year.

IDEAS,

Breaking barriers of science, the PC research team uncovers the secrets of the earth's inner workings.

hy is Science Research so misunderstood? Is it the dark, secretive rituals involving spoons that they do? Is it the countless acronyms that all basically mean some form of RNA? Or is it the overwhelming amount of giraffes associated with the members? Science Research is one of the more closeknit academic groups on the Pine Crest campus, and it is easy to see why. With eight sophomores, juniors, and seniors, respectively, the Science Research squad is more than just a random group of people thrown together. By senior year, they have lived for a week in

the Cabot Lodge, eaten at least a dozen bagels, and spent hours upon hours with one another. They are a family, albeit a non-mendelian pedigreed family, but a family nonetheless. They have supported one another through Science Cafes, Colloquiums, and everything else. They have made friends that will last a lifetime with people they never otherwise would have met. And most importantly, they have built a little home in H203 that will stay with them for the years to come.

unning past the Upper School at 8:09am to arrive at the “Old ICI” turned Chorus room by 8:10am is a typical day in the life of a chorus student. Everyone grabs their folder, which is never in the right place, and sits in their “assigned” seat with correct posture. They begin singing ridiculous sounding warm-up’s like “do do re do do re mi re do, I like chocolate cookie dough please yum.” But, it all works out, as the chorus family scores a “Superior” rating each year at the MPA’s. The best part of chorus is when all of its

members, with different personalities, come together as a unit for one goal: the Winter Concert, Spring concert, or the best part of the year, Candlelight. Whether dancing and drumming to the rhythm of “Bonse Aba” or harmonizing to a Jersey Boys song, all members of the choir feel a sense of excitement when performing together. The group’s instructors, Mr. Testa, Mr. Fitzpatrick, Mr. Evers, Mrs. Fasulo, and Mrs. Kirchgessner are the backbone of the chorus, guiding them to greatness. The seniors of the bunch hope next year’s chorus makes them proud and carries on the legacy of the class of 2016.

&» tudent Council has been extremely productive this year, making everyone’s high school experience much more enjoyable. Judiciary member Hannah Cohen proudly speaks of the successful Homecoming Week, “I think everyone really came together for Homecoming. From the water balloon toss to the teacher watermelon eating contest, the grades had a great time cheering on their class colors.” In addition to the traditional Homecoming festivities, Student Council also put together the second annual Cookie Exchange. Dressed in ugly sweaters, the student body enjoyed fresh baked cookies and hot cocoa that “warmed everyone’s hearts on that chilly December morning.” During second semester, Student Council organized Multicultural Week, during which students were able to proudly show off their cultural heritage. Also, who could forget the Sadie Hawkins dance? Hannah remembers this fondly, stating,

“Sadie Hawkins on the red carpet with the five-star catering of PDQ was a night where everyone had the chance to be a star!” This year, Student Council was able to implement a uniform incentive in which students wearing the appropriate uniform would earn spirit points for their class. They were also able to organize a spirit bus for a Girls’ Soccer team game. Hannah mentions, “Hopefully next year Student Council will be able to keep up the good work and continue to spread the school spirit!” Student Council really serves as a unifying force for the high school, and without Student Council’s leadership, none of these memorable experiences would have been possible.

Walking around the club fair on the first day of school, students eagerly scribble their names down on countless club rosters, ready to get involved in all that Pine Crest has to offer. Even though Pine Crest students seem to be the busiest students in the world, balancing academics, sports and extracurricular activities, the Upper School students still find a way to make time to participate in the various clubs on campus. With over fifty options to choose from, ranging from Board Games Club to Hip Hop Club, each and every student at Pine Crest is able to find their niche. Being involved in a club may require early morning meetings and cooking up a storm the night before a bake sale, but it is all worth it when the club is able to come together and share a unified passion.

Though the student body may incessantly complain about its upcoming assignments or how difficult the most recent test was, the students can all unanimously agree on one thing: the faculty at Pine Crest is most definitely one of a kind. Whether it is Mr. Pierson patrolling the hallway, Mr. Spitzig playing the drums at Playing for Change, or Mr. Curran and Dr. Miller going head to head in a watermelon-eating contest, our teachers always manage to keep things interesting. Truly, the sole reason we stumble out of bed early in the morning at approximately 6 A.M. is to come to school and meet the faculty with bright and shining smiles plastered across their faces. In all seriousness, our teachers are the ties that hold us together. The excellent faculty at Pine Crest is why our school is as highly regarded as it is. They make conning to school enjoyable, transferring their passion on to us, making the classes come alive with knowledge. - HIBAISMAIL

| | ■ want to do with this interview what Kafka instructed Max Brod to do with his written works.” (Kafka requested that Brod burn his works). It was with this encouraging remark that " the interview process of English teacher Mr. Lemole began. Although our questioning was met with reluctance at first, the conversation soon began to flow with ease...and lots of sarcasm. Q: What were you like in high school?

A: I took grades seriously. I did prepare. I studied. I probably tried to create the impression that I didn’t. I wanted people to think it was effortless. Q: You then went to the University of Florida and became a history major. Why?

A: History was... that’s what I was supposed to be good at. The idea was, what is an English major? That’s foolishness; an English major can be taken slightly more seriously than a Theater major--wardrobe, makeup, perhaps a wig.

that usually hasn’t been a problem for me because I’m not looking to be the somber, serious adult in the room. I mean, I am the adult in the room, but I’m trying to have as much fun as I think my students are trying to have. Q: You and Mrs. Dailey are now in charge of the Scribbler. How is it reading student fiction and poetry?

A: Some of you get it right, and it’s astonishing. A teenager can learn the technique and the forms relatively quickly, but when you have a student nail character, like conflict, dilemma--heart-- that’s amazing; that’s a precocious teenager. It’s really fun to read that. In a way, it’s also kind of a crushing experience because I’m sitting here like, my god, it’s taken me 30 plus years to get this kind of insight into human character and here’s this teenager who just did it.

"I WOULD POUND CHEESEBURGERS."

Q: If you could only eat one thing for the rest of your life what would it be?

A: No health consequences?...Cheeseburger. I would POUND cheeseburgers.

Q: Was there ever any pressure to not be a teacher?

Q: Who would play you in a movie?

A: For me, ego was the strongest deterrent at the start of my teaching career-when, like a weakling, I was under the influence of the typical putdowns, such as ‘those who can’t do, teach’ and ‘teaching is not the real world.’ So, at the start, I was, sadly, a self-loathing teacher. Later I started thinking like a mentally well-adjusted adult rather than a kid with an ego.

A: I’m embarrassed to even answer that question. Q: Would you rather have a unibrow for the rest of your life or sweat ketchup?

Q: How do you keep things fun in the classroom?

A: I can’t, like, manage the unibrow? I can’t groom it? Of course the unibrow! It would be tremendously inconveniencing and life obstructing to sweat ketchup. I like ketchup as a condiment but it you’re telling me I’m sweating it, that’s awful.

A: I like to joke around and have fun and teenagers are receptive to that. That’s another reason to teach, by the way. You can’t have this much fun at most other jobs. You come in here relatively free ol pressure and anxiety, and if you know your content then the only thing standing in the way of you and your students is personality. And

A: At this point, all I can do is make a mockery of this. These are fascinating times: your generation may witness the final stage ol humankind’s transition from monkey to machine.

These senior dedications evoke multitudes of feelings to a whole range of people here at the Pine. Parents scramble to find pictures of their child, and then become emotional at the fact that they are even old enough to be making an ad for their child who, (cue tears), is already a senior. For the seniors, it’s the time to check the photos being submitted to make sure they’re the right amount of embarrassing to be cute. And for the Yerdz, it’s that time to stress over finishing these pages to meet the deadline. But most importantly, the dedications are a montage for the entire school to witness how much the senior class has grown. From those awkward lower school moments all the way to their spot as rulers of the school, everyone is proud they have made it so far. -ASHLYN JONES

It's hard to believe that my beautiful little girl is all grown up and almost ready to graduate. When you were a baby, a stranger walked up to me and said. “I hope you know that baby has a very old soul.” At the time, I thought this was strange, but throughout your life, you have shown an intelligence and wisdom that is well beyond your years. I admire your kindness, love for nature and animals, generosity, love for our family, and perseverance. My hope for you is that the next chapter of your life will bring you all that you wish for. May you always find joy, love and happiness. Always take advantage of what the world has to offer and live life to the FULLEST!!!! You will always have unconditional love and support from us no matter what.

Bianca, You are a beacon of strength, wit, humor, and kindness. It has been an honor watching you grow these last 18 years. Your heart and talents have often been described as both legendary and mythical, and your family couldn't agree more. On a family camping trip when you were 3, you killed a bear with a slingshot. Two years ago, when your family was kidnapped while coal mining, you piloted a submarine to Antarctica to bring down the punks who committed the crime. Already an accomplished swordsman, you made quick work of the fiends, piloting Amelia Earhart's lost plane to get us home in time for "Big Brother”. We love you with all our hearts and then some.
