FCA, Drama and Club Biz: KSKY Activities Skyline High School has had a greater quantity of students participating in extra-curricular activities since the school's opening nearly seven years ago. FCA Fellowship of Christian Athletes is one of those clubs. You would think that by the title of FCA it would be restricted to athletes only, but instead it is open to anyone willing to come in at 6:45 on Friday mornings and share their faith and feelings towards each other in a wide range of topics.Mr. Marty Heaton, sponsor of FCA stated that, lt's important that people have somebody to talk to other than their parents and own family members. Religion is not the topic at the FCA meetingsg they often discuss problems with their peers. It is also time for the students and athletes to see some of their other classmates as a different person. FCA also has many activities throughout the course of the year - they plan to go Christmas caroling, have a swimming party and attend many different dinners, breakfasts or luncheons.

KSKY is sponsored by communications teacher Mr. Steve Payne who approved all music and script that was aired. Each disc jockey spent about three to four days in preparation for this twenty-five minute broadcast. Mike Foster stated, It was as close to a real radio station as you can get, and great 'on air' experience. Drama Club is a group of people dedicated to improving their dramatic and speaking skills by reading and acting out plays. Tina Goeden said, It's lots of fun and a chance to goof-off with people who have theatrical interests. Drama has been very interesting. The class has loads of talent and we've had a lot of fun exploring different techniques. says Mrs, Kit DeBuse, sponsor of Drama Club. 5. .. ,.1 If i. .ry
