4 Convention brings exchange of ioleas Would you like to buy a raffle ticket? This phrase was very frequently used by the Latin Club members. The club organized a raffle for the purpose of raising funds. On November 21, the drawing took place, and the winner received two tickets for an evening perfor- mance at Swift Creek Mill Playhouse. Travel- ing to Roanoke for the State Junior Classical League Convention, the Latin Club brought home numerous honors. Various members won awards in costumes, art, mosaics, crafts, maps, and scrapbooks.
