DECA AND HOSA - -' ciUBs HELP COMMUNITY i ' '- It was a brand new year for the Health Occupation Students of Ameri- ca. With a new sponsor and the major- ity ofthe members having departed the previous year, it was really a fresh start. After being elected, the new members went to a regional meeting. President Andrea White was elected regional sec- retary. Members participated in giving health screenings to every student at Pine Forest early in the year. Some members went on to volunteer at the Veteran's Adminisration QVAJ Medical Center. They also helped needy families during the Thanksgiving and Christmas holiday season. HOSA raised money by selling candy in March and April. They also orga- nized a Blood Drive at the school. Many of the members competed in the regional competition in early March. Michelle Bethoulle, the HOSA re- porter, said of this year's club, It's been great! By getting involved in new health experiences and helping others, they have risen to new heights. DECA has also had a hand in aiding the community. For Thanksgiving and Christmas they adopted a needy family. They doled out food, clothing, pots, and pans to the family to fulfill their holiday season. DECA attended the District Conference at Seventy-First Senior High School, placing well in the final standings. As the new year of 1988 be- gan to unfurl, DECA found itself in the exciting whirl of National DECA Week CFebruary 7-135. Activities were planned for the members as well as the members planning for others, such as a breakfast prepared by DECA for the faculty. The climax of the DECA cal- endar was the State Conference in Charlotte. Here the members spent sev- eral days in North Carolina's largest city with other DECA members from all over the state.
