Krim; Reporter: Kim Baines; Rep.: Nancy For most people a family hour con- cerned sitting around the dinner table, watching prime-time televi- sion, or just doing things as a fami- ly unit. But deep inside the Home Economics Department there were two organizations that went beyond the routine family hour rituals. F.H.A. (Future Homemakers of America) and the H.E.R.O. club (Home Economics Related Occupations) gave all their energy, sunshine, and care to the school and surrounding com- munities. In the winter, F.H.A. sold caramel apples; in the spring, daf- fodils and bunny grams; and they visited orphanages and senior citizens homes throughout the year. For F.H.A.'s theme, ‘‘The Year of the Family,” they spon- sored parent-daughter banquets to form a more close-knit family life. H.E.R.O. club students were able to help with nursery teaching at the Lab School, give holiday par- ties for the children, work at a Familyfest, go applepicking, and visit the elderly at Christmas time. F.H.A. and H.E.R.O. clubs had their hands full making sure that everyone from a young toddler to a senior citizen, were happy. The events and activities of F.H.A. and H.E.R.O. definitely gave family hour a new meaning. F.H.A. Sponsors: Mrs. Sanders.

Sparking interest and enthusiam in the Science Club was an arrange- ment of approximately six guest speakers scattered randomly throughout the year telling of their occupations in the field of Science. Field trips furthered the opportunity to observe first-hand what was demonstrated by guest speakers and the material covered in the classroom. Futhermore. en- trance into the Science Fair and Virginia Junior Academy of Science offered a chance for the members to demonstrate their own ‘ideas. SCIENCE CLUB Sponsor: Mrs. Helen Price; Pres.: Marc Ouattromani; Vice Pres.: Phil Criswell; Sec.: Martha Grossel; Treas.: Mike Thomas. Enthusiastic and energetic best described the very active Latin Club. Boosting a strength of forty- three members, the club, open to eighth through twelfth grade Latin students, journeyed to the State Latin Convention November 14th and 15th to demonstrate their creativity and scholastic abilities. In the course of two action-packed days in Roanoke, students from all over the state of Virginia gathered to participate in a toga contest, a Roman banquet, and various trials designed to identify and acknowledge outsta-nding academic achievement in Latin. Latin contests, similar to “It’s Academic, were entered throughout the year by club members. Club sponsor Bette Bartelmes was seeking to schedule one of several Latin con- tests at Lake Braddock. New money making ideas contributed by club members included design- ing and selling Latin tee-shirts. All in all, the Latin Club enjoyed one of its most active and beneficial years. Clubs 333

SAFE ©UAIRI9S Who was always there, ready to help out and make things look bet- ter or more special? It was the in- ternational service club called the Junior Civitans. Their activities ranged from helping pass out dimes during lunch shifts or pro- viding refreshments at faculty meetings, to cleaning trophies in the display case and cleaning blackboards in the subschools. To top off Homecoming week, they let off 500 colorful helium balloons before the game against Oakton. Outside school in the surrounding communities they were also very busy helping out with fund raising for the Association for Retarded Citizens, the Kidney Foundation, Easter Seals, and working with the Special Olympics. In May, they spent a weekend at Ocean City, Maryland for the annual Junior Civitan convention. The Junior Civitans made the year special by always being there when needed and were always ready to help out. “Being safe in what you did, was the easily transmitted idea from the National Safety Council. The service club which was organized to promote safety in the school and community made that point in all their activities. In October they made special trips to local elemen- tary schools to warn children about possible dangers on Hallo- ween night. Throughout the year they sponsored bake sales, a Safe- ty Week, and a Bloodmobile. To get the needed assitance in impor- tant projects such as the Blood- mobile, the Council attended County meetings once a month and state meetings in November. Whether it was safeguarding the school, traffic or community, the National Safety Council was on their guard to keep things running smoothly. Clubs 335
