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.

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

The French Honor Society consisted of students with an A average in French and a B average in all other subjects. The club members went to French restaurants, such as La Caravelle, and ate roast duck and onion soup. During the Christmas season the club went caroling and sang English, Welsh, and French carols. Members of the society worked together in organizing and publishing a paper for the Foreign Language Department. A special Christmas edition was published which included French Christmas recipes, games, puzzles, and Christmas customs from other countries. In the spring the club members also attended plays and films spoken in French. French Honor Society: Front Row: Susan Reynolds, Debbie Lund, Jeff Toney, Jamie Foggo, Laura Lund.

The requirements were a 3.0 average in Spanish for third year students and a 3.5 average in Spanish for second year students. It was the type of club where you did what you wanted. Some of the activities they participated in as a group were a progressive dinner and selling Spanish arts and crafts, food, and raffling-a pihata at the Foreign Language Festival.
