Yes, once again Estancia has a French Club. This is a new club even though there was a French Club here several years ago. ' Since other schools had a French Club, Matalie Hastings, Mrs. Reilly and I decided it was time to reform the one from Estan- cia, explained Beth Renn, who was the President of the club. The Vice-President was Laura Ursini, the secretary was Gentry Lane, the treasurer was Molly Fardette and Mrs. Reilly was the club ' s advisor. Club members met once a month and discussed (in French) field trips, French movies and French actors. This school year they participated in National For- eign Language Week. Hopefully French Club will return again next year. However, French Club is not the only group to bring a little of Eur- ope to our school. We had a great time, and it was really fun, said German Club ' s President Gary Grimm, referring to the German Language Camp which several of the club members attended on October 10-12 in Run- ning Springs. At this camp, no English was spoken (only Ger- man), students played German games and performed German dances. German Club is one of Estan- cia ' s newest clubs. The club, which met every two weeks, had approxi- mately 20 members. The Vice- President was Greg Davis, the Sec- retary of nations was John Sy- bersma, Jeff Peterson was Treasur- er, and Mrs. Svendsen was the club ' s advisor. When they met, they talked about activities, par- ties and German camp. They are certainly one of the most interst- ing clubs, and one of the liveliest. French And German Clubs

' . a Exercising Brain Power I t ' s a privilege to belong to CSF because it ' s a pretty hard club to get into, Mike Joyner commented. CSr (California Scholastic Fed- eration) was organized by the state government in order to bring stu- dents who excel in the studies to- gether. The club had approximate- ly 80 members. Mrs. Cullen, the club advisor, stated that a student must earn at least a 3.5 GPA or be in the club 6 semesters in order to be a perma- nent member. Mever forgetting to enjoy them- selves the club members included broom hockey, gathering college information and sharing their lunch hours as their activities. Brain power does not always have to be intellectual, but also creative. It was Creative Writing Club ' s first year in existence. I started this club because I knew some people who were un- able to join the creative writing class, and starting a club seemed like a good idea, explained Kris Choi, the club ' s president. Fortu- nately, many people were interest- ed in joining the club. 1 wanted a chance to do some extra writing this year, and Cre- ative Writing Club gave me that chance, said MaryAnne Mosher, the club ' s treasurer. At each meeting, members of the club shared their stories they wrote, and discussed future as- signments. They planned to make a little magazine at the end of the year out of the things that they had written. The club had 14 members and Mrs. Ross was the club ' s advi- sor. 88 Clubs And Organizations
