School vote retains year-round yearbook Four years ago the Quetzal staff broke tradition and established the first year- round yearbook in Orange County. Since than there have been many complaints, surprisingly, from parents of students and other faculty members about the de- layed delivery yearbook which arrives in September. Addressing this problem, the newly formed Student Senate took two votes to see if the student body, as a whole, want- ed to continue with the set format or switch to the more traditional yearbook which would be unable to cover any events occurring after mid-March and would be more expensive to boot. Twice the question was taken to the stu- dent body and twice the answer was the same, the student body wanted to retain the year-round yearbook. 'Tm not really surprised the vote was this way. This year's seniors have not known any other sort of yearbook in high school, the first year-round yearbook was their freshman yearbook. The majority of com- plaints I've received in the past two years have been from parents and from other faculty members. The students like hav- ing the entire year covered, said Quetzal Adviser Mary Ellen Cummings. The Quetzal staff, in addition to produc- ing the yearbook, held fundraisers that would aid next year,s newspaper and year- book staff travel to the State Convention in Fresno. They also participated in the March of Dimes Walkathon as a community ser- vice project. Additionally, they aided the lVlEChA Club with their Christmas San- ta photo project. They competed in the Orange County -IEA Write-offs and again they competed at the state level in April. ,,-v N . . W., . A I 2 I.

Photos have a happy faculty of being misplaced andfot stolen by other staff members which prompted the first Quetzal staff to tack a holy card of Saint Jude, the patron saint of lost causes, on the wall in the Quetzal office. Usually the photos do turn up, often three days after the deadline. quetzal - 121

The members of the Explorer-Ski Club who went left from the front of the school the day after Christmas and were bused to Salt Lake City for a five day tour of several ski resorts in that area. Club sponsor Valerie Hannemann labeled the trip a success, Yeah, it was fun, every year we get more people. This year IO6, last year 60 and before that 40.7, They skiied at Snowbird, Alta, Solitude, Deer Valley and Park City resorts, but they stayed at the Hilton Inn in Salt Lake City. There were no serious injuries that trip, a few sprained ankles and a few bruises and junior Susan Keith came down with the flu. Other excursions to local areas on Saturdays and school holidays were planned and popular with Explorer-Ski Club members. However, in early February Explorer-Ski Club members were sad- dened by the death of 1982 graduate and former member, Lisa Mosier, who was killed in a skiing accident at Goldmine, a ski resort in the San Bernardino Mountains. 1.
