Over one-hundred students participated in the French Club. Why did they have so many more members than any other foreign language club? The answer is simple. The French Club had some kind of French-oriented activity every month. Members attended the French movie Les Comperes, a picnic with the other foreign language clubs, a trip to the Renaissance Festival, a Christmas party at a students’s home, a trip to Jones Hall to see The Bejart Ballet, ice-skating, and a French banquet at the Magic Pan in the Galleria. The club also made and sold creampuffs to the school in March and crepes in February. Competition was strong in French Club. Not only did they compete with Latin Club in a friendly game of volleyball, but they also played the Hastings French Club at the end of the year. ‘‘The club is open to anyone interested, and not just to French students, said President Thanh Ho. The French Club is known to have more students involved in activities, remarked Mrs. Hogshead, the French Club sponsor for eight years. We had over thirty students from the French Club alone attend the Renaissance Festival.” By D. Hund. Reporter Club Sponsor Mrs. Hogshead before crepe making d; explains how to make crepes Photo by M.
