As with many high schools, present and past, assembling together and forming an organization to repre- sent a certain group was the best way to get your picture on every page. Making yourself part of a club was a great way to show just how active you were and how important you felt your school was. Maybe your goal was just to get out and meet people in school or let ' everybody know who you were. The purpose of clubs was to bring together students who were interested in getting together and sharing their thoughts and ideas. Raising money was many clubs ' primary thought, and they filled their needs by selling candy, ornaments or holding car washes. Then they reward- ed themselves with a trip to a famous Californian amusement park or a dinner at an exotic restaurant. One of the largest examples of clubs hiking ' ' together was the Homecoming carnival held in the student parking lot. Clubs compiled their ideas and chose which activity they wanted to represent at their booths. The booths ranged from selling food to the playing of a game where the winners were given a prize. That was the first San Gorgonian car- nival and maybe the last. The reason was because most of these clubs did not make much of a profit. Another tradition of club organization was ICC day. Again clubs assembled and sold food or represented a game. This was always successful because it was during school and of course profits were made. ICC was always a big help to many of the clubs. It consisted of all the club presidents and together they decided what activities they would par- ticipate in. Clubs were of extreme importance to school. They made an ordinary day much more interesting. They gave students the chance to add variety to school life away from the books and pencil pushing. Just like hiking together, students helped each other reach peaks they could only reach together. April Abreau a senior added, Clubs are important because they let students get involved in activities aside from schoolwork. Senior Krista Brown concluded, Assembling with other people and sharing the high school times of great fun, should be experienced. That ' s why clubs are very essential.

Interclub Council Student assembly plans activities Students elected by their second period class made up the Student Assembly. With help from the student body, these students helped plan and prepare the school ' s activities. Their suggestions were discussed as well as complaints so problems on campus could be worked out. When meetings were over, these representatives gave reports to their classes on what was discussed at the meetings and what was to be planned. Sophomore, Michelle Castellano, commented on the meetings, We haven ' t had many meetings and it would have been a bet- ter club if it had been better organized. ' ' Top: ICC president.
