Spanish Clubfliussion Club his has been a C C transitional year for us, we're trying to get to know each other, remarked Mr. Steve Chavez, the new sponsor of the Spanish Club. He and the members of the Spanish Club are starting to adjust to the absence of long-time sponsor, Mr. Joe Barragon, a teacher at Central who retired last year. ln order to be a member, a student must be enrolled in a Spanish class. The main goal of the club is to raise funds for an annual trip to San Diego. In order to do this, the Spanish Club has sold Boo- Grams in the quad at Halloween, and is planning candy sales as well. The members also volunteered their time to operate the pinata booth at the Harvest Moon Festival. The children at the festi- val made it one of the most frequented booths. The students are determined in their goals. President Danna Schneider, Vice-President Jacque Weiss, Treasurer Jennifer Loomis, and Social Chair Suz- anne Poles worked together to make this year a successful one. Mr. Chavez noted that the club is mostly student-motivat- ed. They are all very supportive and in- volved in the club. He went further to say that co-sponsor Ms. Bonita Peterson also was an integral part of the club. Hopes are high that next year will be even better. I believe by then the club will have a solid foundationf, Mr. Chavez con- cluded. Vice- President Jacque Weiss convinces pro- spective member Ariane Bass to join the Spanish club. Recruiting new members is only one of the many duties that must be carried out by the officers in the club.
