Future Business Leaders of America is one of the many clubs offered at Car- son High. The Future Business Leaders of America were very busy during the year. They had club meetings once a month at which they usually had guest speakers from the community. They also had fund raisers to earn money to attend their conference competition held in Reno. Their com- petitions consist of events such as typing, spelling, and word processing. February 9 through 1 3 was declared proclamation week for FBLA by the Governor. 190 I

More than just a challenge who sponsored and planned all school activities, such as dances, movie nights, and assemblies? Who did all the behind the scenes work in the Student Store, pro- gramming the computer board and taking inventory of the concessions? Who were the dedicated people who worked hand in hand with the SADD program? Who was the group that donated $1000 to the facul- ty member Jim Frank? A group of young, inspired individuals known as the Student Body Officers. These rive people were more than just Seniors with fancy titles. They each gave a tremen- dous amount of time and hard work to make this year a positive one. We ' ve worked hard to let everyone — the teachers, students, people in the com- munity — know how much we appreciate them. We ' ve made some changes, broke some traditions, to make school a better place for everyone, said Student Body President Michelle Brown. All the officers agreed that being an of- ficer was fun, but if you think it ' s a piece of cake, it ' s not, said Student Body Vice President Rod Fox. You have to have the time and the willingness to work with other people. It ' s fun, but it ' s not easy. Along with the time and hard work came the realization that it takes unity within the group to get anything accomplished. Not only that, they found out that no one per- son could do all the work. Everything requires so much work — you can ' t do it by yourself. Mr. Scoggin has been a great help by doing many things such as making phone calls to scheduling events to take place, said Student Body Historian Lynda Cullen. Mr. Scoggin has enabled us to make wise decisions, guiding us while letting us make our own choices, said Student Body Secretary Kerstine Johnson. Mr Scoggin was the link between the student bo y and the faculty. He worked side by side with the officers, and he en- joyed it. , , i I ' m very impressed with this group ot people. It ' s been a pleasure to work with them. Their work goes unrecognized and the students never realize how much work it really takes. Their low profile and large deeds go unnoticed; self-satisfaction is their only reward, said Vice Principal Mr. Scoggin. These officers weren ' t only students: they were people with very special talents. It takes for the most part dedication. You must be willing to put forth the little free time you have. As treasurer I assist in the money situations of student activities. The nucleus of these transactions is the Student Finance Office, where I must report to fifth hour each day to record the financial dealings for the day with my associate-boss Shari MacDonald, said Student Body Treasurer Bret Borshell. One has to have the ability to make people laugh and have fun. One ot the best things about being an officer is to see the changes we initiated take place. And ot course, there is a certain amount of prestige in being a Student Body Officer, Taid Johnson. It ' s hard work, but it ' s fun. If you enjoy having tremendous amounts of responsibility placed on your shoulder I feel that attempting a Student Body office should be advised, ' said Bo - by Tracy Hicks Student Body President Michelle Brown and Secretary Kersllne Johnson displayed their school sp.nt dunng Anti-Winter Week.

The all boys armed drill team marches in the Nevada Day Parade. Left, Left, Right, Left Basically I signed up for this because after high school I plan on going into the astronautical field! The only way I could do this is if the military helps pay my tuition. ROTC will help me get the scholarship I need, said Senior Ted Cetschman. ROTC was made up of dif- ferent teams. There was the Color Guard, Armed Drill Team, Unarmed Drill Team, and the Rifle Team. These groups com- ROTC COMPANY STAFF: Ted Get chman, Tracey Patterson, Kristie Lawrence, Shane DeForest, Glen Wungenema, Andy Clancy. peted against other schools. ROTC was not just guns and flags, though. Many different subjects were studied. Among them were First Aid, History, and Oceanography. ROTC was taken instead of PE. Classes were held three times a day. First there was zero period, which was sophomores, juniors, and seniors. First period was Naval Science 3, which was for juniors and seniors. Last, but not least, was second period. That was Naval Science 2, which was another class for sophomores. The all girls unarmed drill team also par- ticipated in the Nevada Day Parade. Ted Cetschman, Tracey Patterson, Dan Lowe, Kristie Lawrence, and Steve Bryan present the flags at the homecoming game.
