The German Club Becomes Much More Than Just a Language Club. After a great time at The Old Country” in September, the German Club followed this exciting adventure with an impromptu march in the Homecoming parade. We had a good club this year, but kept it loose, doing some things on the spur of the moment,” said the club’s president Jim Foundriat. Everything was kind of informal.” The club also had an Oktoberfest at Mr. Wilhelm’s that ended up a Weihnachtsfest — a Christmas party, a trip to the Virginia German Club Convention in Hampton, and pipe dreams of the club’s trip to the Fatherland sometime in the next decade were the activities and aspira- tions of this year’s Deutche Club.

Fund Raising for Canadian Adventure Becomes Priority for French Club Valentine flowers, a French Cusine Demonstration were among activities that kept the French clubbers bustling all year with one overall objective in mind; the annual trip to Quebec, Canada. Although the busy members met with several obstacles throughout the year such as losing Madame Robert as the club sponsor, and being unable to receive approval for their principle fund raising project, the club hardly hesitated for a moment, but leapt head on into a mountain of avail- able activities. This year’s officers were: Wendy Wolfe — president, Flelen Athas — vice president, Ann Fer- guson — svcretary, Marjorie Washington — treasurer, Jana Waklyn — activities chairman, Geor- gia Athas — parliamentarian.
