ArlV CKorus? Madrigals? Show Choir? Show pnoir Band? If any of these sound familiar, you have obviously acquainted yourself with the vocal music organization. All under the direction of Mr. Fast, these enthusiastic groups of talented singers and musicians have won many awards and recognitions. Many of those who participate have hopes of pursuing a career in the music field. To some, music is a way of life. Jennifer Shimota ex- plained why she became involved with Mad- rigals, because music is my life and I like to work with people who are serious about mu- sic. Other students just enjoy music as a hobby. I like to sing. It ' s challenging, com- mented Michelle Spencer, and I like Mr. Fast. Debbie Ensign joined because I like music and I like to sing. Those involved in the choirs are serious in their pursuit of perfection. They are only ac- cepted by Mr. Fast, after grueling tryouts and auditions. Once accepted into the group, they must remain dedicated by p articipating in fund raisers, concerts, and rehearsals. These organizations are hard work, said Mr. Fast, and very time consuming, but need I say, extremely rewarding. Kim I. SHOW CHOIR BACK — Suzi Sturdivan, Steve Johnson.

There are many clubs and organizations for students to become active in, all of them promote different ideals. Four of our clubs promote life and the enjoyment of living. Two new clubs, (advised by Mr. Hooper) which are making a lot of headway in the campaign for life are: Students Against Sui- cide, SAS; and Students Against Driving Drunk, SADD. Both club presidents, Lori Turner (SADD), and Steve Hanson (SAS), are convinced that students must be alerted to the dangers that take teenage lives so need- lessly. Alive today, alive tomorrow, a life worth living: is the SAS motto. For twelve years the Thespians have been the hard working core of those dedicated to bringing some lively musicals to our stage. This group is an international honor society for students who work hard and excel in the- atre arts. Their latest contributions for our enjoyment were The Odd Couple starring David A. Edwards and Mike Washington; and the Spring Musical, Guys and Dolls. Their new advisor was Mr. DeWitt. Speaking of lively, the Baxter State Society is a club which worked toward the promotion of liberal arts and student awareness of stu- dent activities. BSS was founded December 22, 1984 with high goals, most of which re- mained unachieved. However, during its ini- tial rush week, the BSS sprang from dor- mancy to become something of a status sym- bol. STUDENTS AGAINST SUICIDE BACK — Sonya Chatman, Serena Slye. Jon Siepman.
