BEHIND THE SCENES 24 The homeroom bell rang on Wednesday morning. All the student council members headed toward the library for their weekly meeting. Sara Grande, the student council president, called the meeting to order. Mindy Langford, student council secretary, read the old business and wrote new business on her recording book. There was no time to waste for they had many important decisions to make. Student council was the strongest club on campus. With their vote and Mr. Bridger’s approval, activities at Antelope were held. The club was composed of experienced and responsible members who helped keep Student Council gets school going things in order around school. When Sara Grande was asked how she felt about being Antelope’s Student Body President, she said, “I feel that being student council president is a big responsibility, but I enjoy working with other people to make our school better.” Student council members not only made important decisions concerning the school but also organized games and dances for students. For example, they organized Homecoming Week, a big event at Antelope which included games during school and a dance on Homecoming night. The student council tried to make the school better and more interesting. The homeroom bell rang, and Sara Grande adjourned the meeting at 9:55. Mindy Langford finished writing last minute notes and put away her record book. They met again the following Wednesday to discuss more issues regarding the school. Sara Grande and Leonel Federico start the student council meeting on Wednesday morning. Teri Hofer and Liz Dail try to get serious about the meeting. Alma Barraza, Vicki Carrillo, and German Fteyes plan another school activity.

BEHIND THE SCENES 26 FHA achieves Cooperation was the key word to the FHA club. It took a lot of cooperation to make the club a success while still having fun. High expectations set the mood as the FHA club planned their club activities. The club raised money for trips and worked to gain participation in the club’s activities. They went to the Leadership Rally in Tucson, worked to serve the community, and planned a trip to Los Angeles in April. These were a few of the goals that Misty Smith, president of FHA, established to aid the club in their activities. One important part of the club was the officers. Misty Smith told us that she joined to find out what FHA was all about. She liked it and decided to run for office. Annie Auza was vice-president, and Julie Syck was secretary. Liz Dail, treasurer, said, Holding an office was awesome!” because she found out about activities before the rest of the club members. Timberly Smith was historian, Elida Barrandey was student council representative, Rebecca Moore was points chairman, and Melody Langford was publicity chairman. The club's advisor, Ms. Milburn, said, “The FHA club started out strong. There are always a few girls that work real hard in the club.” Some of the activities were the Cinderalla Ball on November 19, and a trip to the State Fair October 29. The club members looked forward to benefits from their learning experiences. The club taught us how to deal with activities in public later on in your life,” said Misty Smith. Cooperation was the word and that was what FHA had this past year. Paula Milam helps Kathy Henry prepare for an important FFA meeting Future Farmers of America: Front row: Bud Mixon. Timmy Rush.
