Brains ’N’ Brawn Boasting over sixty members, the Key Club was perhaps the club experiencing the largest growth from the previous year- —quadrupling in size. Key Club, a youth service organization sponsored by the Kiwanas Clubs of America, sponsored ac- tivities that were services to the school and community. The increase in members brought about an increase in the quality activities the group was involved in. The enthusiastic members planned and execut- ed very successful activities including sponsoring a stomp; assisting the Sandy Fire Department in a local fire prevention program; and providing five families with Christmas presents, a decorated tree and twenty-five dollars in cash. The club also undertook the large responsibility of put- ting together the 'A Book student direc- tory, as well as assisting the Kiwanas with the annual Sandy Easter Egg Hunt, and helping with an auction held at the Sandy State Bank raising money for the Utah Boys Rand. Again this year, the club also awarded a $200 college scholarship to an outstanding graduating senior. Gary Tin- gey, adviser, summed up the Key Club: I feel that the Key Club provides students with a capacity to give back to the commu- nity and to the school.” People who chose to get involved phys- ically rather than socially found that the Letterpeoples Club provided awards and socializing with people interested in athle- tic accomplishments. The opportunity to obtain a letter was open to anyone willing to prove his or her dedication, ability, and talent in a specific athletic field. The club although not involving its members in a lot of activities was still a coveted organiza- tion because of the prestige associated with belonging to this club. Members not only had to perform well in varsity action, but also had to be in good standing with the school academically and in citizenship. An end of the year banquet honored the athletes, both men and women who had met their departments requirements to wear their silver A on their black letter- people’s jacket. by Glenda Jones Counting up food goods received from the student body.
