Drama Club After a year of dormancy, the drama program was reviv- ed through the efforts of enthusiastic students and advisor Rick Ferris. This year was a foundation year in which members strove to create a theater they could work in. Aspring actors developed their skills and learned the impor- tance of a professional attitude toward productions. The result of these focuses was a sucessful Pops Concert in con- juction with the Swing Set. Actors provided lead-in dialog for singers and added a great deal of depth to the show with their after humorous antics. With the experiences of this year’s production under their belts, the Drama depart- ment is sure to produce great things in the future. Row 1: Suslan Connally. Charlotte Holbrook. Shawn Davis.

Art Club Art Club was a new organization started by Karen Walker intended not only for artistically gifted students, but for those who needed or wanted more time for art. Seniors Gina Miller and Cindy Almond especially made the club a success, giving many of their free hours to the varied pro- jects of the art club, including murals for the Business and Music departments. Debra Bell. Kathy Green and Aeth Clark show promise for the future of the club. These people all worked hard on the trophies for the Awesome Run, and overwhelmed the Art Show with a number of excellent entries. Row 1: Aeth Clarke. Kathy Green. Debra Bell. Karin Walker. Cindy Al- mond. Gina Miller. Ski Club Ski Club dedicated itself to the proposition that all students are created to ski. A snowy season combined with many dances and bake sales, enabled members to organize an overnight ski trip to Mount Bachelor early in the season. Despite chilly winds, all members managed to enjoy the trip. Two members even had the adventure of being towed down the mountain by the Ski Patrol. Ski Club president Lynda Rotmans, secretary-treasurer Patti Sloan and student council representative Ray Elmer exchange their positions for a diploma, and wish good luck to advisor Ron Davison and next years’ Ski Club.

Concert Band A band’s activities go far beyond showing up at games and playing the fight song. This year the band marched in the Homecoming, Pear Blossom and Boatnik Parades in addition to playing at all of the football and basketball games. The band can also boast of being well-travelled. Trips to the state play- offs, the 1600-mile tour to Marriott’s Great America and a trip to Corvallis to the Band-o-rama kept members busy. The band contributed greatly to school spirit and was appreciated by both students and the communi- ty. Their music added to enthusiasm at games and provided enjoyable concerts.
