V oncerts, magic trees J Charlie Brown mark the year for the choir and drama clubs ' -yi wo major parts of the Canyon Springs performing arts pro- gram were the choir and the school ' s drama club. The drama club started the year off with a play called The Magic Christmas Tree, which was per- formed Dec. i6, 1986, in the school gym. It was shown twice, once in the afternoon and another time in the evening. The play focused on a Christ- mas tree, played by Rainbow Myers, that came to life because of a magic ornament. A villain named Slugdirt, played by Crystal Ander- son, tried to take the magic orna- ment away from the Christmas tree. I enjoyed the play very much and was very impressed with Can- yon Spring ' s drama students, said sophomore Tom May. Emilie Stewart, president of the club, said, Drama club was an en- tertaining experience, and it gave me an opportunity to meet new people. The club planned to produce a musical, You ' re a Good Man, Charlie Brown, in the spring. There were other ways that a person could express himself artis- tically; one way was through the choir. Choir has always made me feel as though I ' ve accomplished some- thing hard that no one else has done, stated choir member Eva Picon. When you sing, you learn about yourself and your voice, and you let your real self come out through your music. Although we have only been here a year, Nanci Brown said, I thmk our choir and drama club had very nice performances. Drama Club, Choir 53

i rtists to brush use up lunch techniques CiT ' good, Tracy Kugelmann said, because it gives people with a common interest — art — a chance to get together and have some fun. She was the president of the Art Club. The club had about lo members, all of whom enjoyed art. Although not all of them were en- rolled in an art class, all the mem- bers agreed that art is beautiful. The club was not organized like a class and, in fact, only one winner in the National Date Festival con- test, Gabe Hood, was in the club. For some, however, it offered a chance to do art without being in an art class. Such was the case with Michele DePierro. She wanted to take art, but could not fit it into er schedule, so she decided to join the art club. The club adviser was Mrs. Becky Raleigh. It is a very good idea, she said of the club. Hopefully, next year I will have a little more time to offer. Danelle Germo was the club ' s vice president, and Nikki Smith was the secretary. The club allowed students to have their works exhibited at con- tests and fairs, if they wished to do so. As of second semester, the club had held one artist ' s reception, for club member Jennifer Talley, and was planning others. The group also planned field trips to several art museums and galleries. Members planned to hold fundraisers to earn money for the trips. Guest speakers were to be invited to attend meetings, if that could be arranged.
