c?,,i9'f OUR ORGANIZATIONS Clubs at Sahuaro were numerous. Leadership experience, meeting new people and expanding student's personalities was stressed through each organization. Car washes, selling bagels and candy were a few of the fundraising activities. Working with others to benefit the community and themselves proved another reason why four years is not too long for an education. Clubs Section Editor: Polly Collins Staff: Debbie Perry

The Sahuaro Body Building Club -the first of its kind in Tucson and one of the few in the nation- was established with the emphafs on women's body building, but soon became for women and men because of the great interest shown. Toning muscles, gaining or losing weight, becoming physically fit and strong, and building muscles to improve performance in other sports were the goals of the members. To accomplish these goals each member followed a training program which involved lifting weights three or four times a week. The club hosted guest speakers who spoke on weight lifting and nutrition, one of which was Miss Grand Canyon, and attended the Miss Arizona contest so as to better understand competition in body building. Any of the female members interested in competing were involved in the Miss Tucson contest in which the girls were judged on symmetry and muscle development of the body. Although body building was new for women, the club proved to be popular with men and women alike. M. Holck Mary Slater is a runner, her work-out includes the tricep extension which builds up the triceps. M. I-Iolck P W Wy, ., ,, W. p .Q BODY BUILDING Front row: J. Pignatiello, A. Tsang, D.
