Q qmmunit Y A Tonic For Good Health Can 28,000 individuals be wrong? These are the people, both young and old, who participate each year in Birmingham ' s educational pro- gram. In offering a wide range of educa- tional enrichment programs, from sum- mer school to senior citizen activities to enrichment classes, community educa- tion provides a valuable service to the residents of the city. It enriches so many lives, said youth and adult enrichment superviser Barbara Hile, and the learning never ends; it continues through a lifetime. Included in the enrichment program are classes for youths and adults, and a varied selection of recreational activities, which, based on enrollment increases, have become the most popular of all the offerings. A significant spin-off benefit of com- munity education is the job opportunies available in the program. High school students, as well as senior citizens, can apply for such positions as teachers of these enrichment classes, teachers ' aides, life guards and swim instructors. Assistant co-ordinator Marilyn Fergu- son, a strong supporter of Birmingham ' s community education program stressed, If we are not learning and teaching we are not awake and alive. Learning is not only like health, it is health.

Our main goal is to supply the needs of the athletic teams that the Board of Education doesn ' t fund, reported president Pat Hayes. Another of its intentions is to involve the students and above all, the parents, in Seaholm athletic activities. One of the many respected projects the Booster Club should be recognized for this year was their work in the gymnasium. They painted our school colors, maroon and white, over the original orange. This overwhelming task took over one hundred long hours of work and is greatly appreciat- ed by all Seaholm spectators. The funding for the club ' s underta- kings is collected in school dues and , through parents volunteering to work in the concession stands at football and basketball games. The annual spring Jog-a-thon is also a great fund raiser for their projects. The Booster Club ' s contributions in former years consist of new weightroom equipment, eight updated State Cham- pionship banners, revitalized showcases, and a two hundred and fifty dollar athletic scholarship to the most qualified Seaholm student. These school gifts, along with many others, are the fruitful result of the club ' s continued efforts. Sophomore Amy Burch summed it all up. The Booster Club gives impor- tant donations that make noticeable and appreciated betterments in our school. Freshman Clint Bond effortlessly bench presses an immense total weight of approximately fifty pounds of raw steel. This weight lifting equipment was provided by the Boosters. photo bv Jason O ' Malley COMMUNITY ADS 275
