If you listed every project and activity the Future Homemakers of America completed, you would have a list a mile long. Each person signed up for the committee she was interested in, which varied from picking apples in Winchester and making apple butter, apple jelly, and caramel apples to doing service projects for UNICEF, Muscular Dystrophy, and Headstart. As a Bicentennial project they served as guides, planted a herb garden, and served as hostesses at Gunston Hall during Christmas and Garden Week. Some of the members also adopted The Fairfax Nursing Home, and for every holiday did something special for the occupants. On Halloween, they dressed up and paraded for the elderly; and for Christmas, they brought 20 of the elderly people to our school to eat Christmas dinner. This gesture, besides their regular visits and other good deeds, brightened the lives of the old people. A member of FFIA, Jennifer Smith, escorts one of the residents of the club ' s adopted nursing home through the booths and stalls at Fall Festival. (Hubs .mil (hyanizalions

Many members of the Ecology Club put many long hours of hard work into planting the trees and making them thrive. They planted a variety of trees which were donated to them by the U.S. Marine Corps. Trees such as lob-lolly, dogwood, pine, and black walnut were planted in various places on the school grounds. Other endeavors included a newspaper dumpster which was open at all times, a clean-a-thon held on November 22, a tree plant, and an earth week. On November 22, the Ecology Club members went out and collected 857 lbs. of garbage around the Lake Braddock area. Afterwards, they piled it up and put the garbage in trash bags and, as you can see, Susan Miller, Julie Bisone and Sharon Broaddus are doing just that. ubs and Organizations

While having fun was an important factor, the French club was also busy adding to Lake Braddock’s traditions. One of the new traditions which the French club initiated was the International Language Festival. The festival lasted for one week during the spring and included assemblies, variety shows, cultural displays, and exotic international foods prepared by the teachers and students in the Foreign Language department. Another achievement was the foreign language newspaper which was planned and written by the club. The restaurants, plays, and movies which the club went to see helped to improve their understanding of the French habits and way of life. Involved in serving food at a French club party, Mrs. Garcia tries to unwrap some foil off a delicious looking loaf of French bread. Before Susan Miller, Terri Bassett, Doug Waugh, and Jeff Toney French club meeting, they find time to check them present their notes at the first over. f ■ r ? t n ri How: £ usan wY,,’ Lin ? a N ? nce ’ Marilyn Tarlano.
