A Big Business Future Business Leaders of American and Home Economics Related Occupa- tions were not heard often around the halls but these titles represented two of the many clubs belonging to Alta; FBLA and FHA HERO. FBLA’s 70 members goal was to “Help Community get involved with the free enterprise system. To accomplish this goal the club members planned a Free Enterprise Week, which was held the second week of February. Dur- ing this week the members went to ele- mentary and Jr. Highs and taught the students about free enterprise. At Alta congressmen came and spoke on the subject. FBLA practiced some free en- terprise this year by selling toosie roll banks and the familiar Alta High School , Alta Hawks stickers. Two booths at the fair and a prize winning third place float kept the club busy dur- ing Homecoming week. Members at- tended the Western Regionals (Nov. 18- 21) in Portland, Oregon to learn about the offices. Joey Pentelone represented the school so well she was elected the state region V.P. A road rally with lots of pizza kicked the year off to a good start and gave FBLA a great year right through the district and state competition that were held in April. Helping individuals to become better people was FHA-HERO’s goal for the students of Alta. The sixty member club worked on two state projects this year Healthy Babies and Student Body”. These were presented to every person who had a Home-Ec class. Every month there was a FHA day in which the club gave a presentation to help individuals be themselves. Four needy families re- ceived dinner for Thanksgiving in which FHA sponsored. The numerous Christ- mas trees seen around the halls in De- cember were part of the tree decorating contest and FHA project. President Lanette Wisemen said about the biggest change in the club, In the past FHA-HERO has had no male members; this year twenty of our sixty members are males and two, Dean Langston and Eric Singleton, are offi- cers. Six club members received the high- est award in FHA which is the NEW HORIZON Award. Hard work and keep- ing goals helped them achieve this. The FHA-HERO candlelighting ceremony lets Russ Johnson enjoy the evening. This is the first ceremony that boys have participated in. 54 • F.H.A.-F.B.L.A. Horns sprout from FBLA advisor.
