0 • EXTRAORDimRILY EXTRA-CURRICULAR iversity is the key to ail of the extracurricular activi- f ties going on at Capo. There ' s a little something 1 here for everyone. There ' s Mock Trial for aspiring lawyers, Kiwanis Bowl for trivia buffs, and FBLA for the Donald Trump in all of us. There ' s a bike club for cyclists, orchestra and band for musicians, and dance production for would-be Rogers and Astaires. All of the clubs and organizations kept busy with a calendar full of activities. CSF travelled to UCSD in No- vember and also sponsored the canned food drive and the talent show. Art Experience visited the Newport Har- bor Art Museum and painted the Homecoming mural. The Peer Assistance League once again sponsored the Red Ribbon Week, Drama Club went to see the taping of It ' s Gary Shandling ' s Show, and the marching united continued to reap top honors at competitions. Overall dullness was clubbed out of anyone ' s mind who wanted to participate in these activities, and school was routine only by choice. 48 Clubs and Organizations

Advisor Jay Sponagle replied, Yeah, they save your life. The Bike Club ' s primary goal was to promote biking and safety. Hel- mets were required, bikes were checked for malfunctions and safety procedures for cyclists were fol- lowed. The Bike Club was founded by Mr. Sponagle because many students displayed an interest in cycling. They kept asking about forming a club, so we did. In its smooth fourth year, the Bike Club had members like senior Heather Bickford who liked to ride bikes because it ' s good exercise and it ' s also fun. 50 Croauet Bike
