Its a SADD situ- ation. The Key is to serve and support the school and the community. Raising bundles of money and hold- ing special events, each club donated time and effort to serve others. Putting in long hours, Key Club members helped with several fundraisers. The balloon drive for the Arthritis Foundation called llUp, Up and Away was a major project. Here students blew up helium balloons and let them go in the parking lot at Tanglewood Mall. During the month of November, Key Club officers organized a telethon for Multiple Sclero- sis with volunteers working long hours calling people to solicit donations. Every Sun- day in December, Key Club committee heads took a group of members to visit patients at Friendship Manor. Others wrote letters At the South Roanoke Nursing Home, French Club member, Wendy Pilcher talks to one of the patients during a visit at Christmas.

They also worked refresh- ment stands and sold tickets for the Lancerlot hockey team. Mrs. Maureen Anderson began a new club called Professional Service Tech- nicians lPSTl, an organiza- tion formed to work with the handicapped. They made a relief map of Virginia for the blind. The map was built raised and puffed up almost like braille, so blind students could feel and understand the map. Several students visited the public radio sta- tion, took voice test and read newspapers over closed cir- cuit radio stations for the blind. Some students attended training sessions to help them better understand and learn more about the club. Others made flashcards, gameboards, and taped test- books for the reading impaired.

They wore fashions from Bridels House and Formals and Ronis Tux Stop. Notable personalities from K-92 and WSLS Channel 10 worked as masters of ceremony.

When the new SCA officers were announced, the cycle of work began all over again. Students and faculty members mingled together while SCA members served a brunch to the teachers during the teacher work day. On October 17, the SCA arranged a sock hop to be held after one of the football games. Dur- ing the week of homecoming, a crowd of around 50 showed up for the bonfire which flamed in the school parking lot. Snow caused the cancellation of the winter dance on January 24. After K-92 disc jockeys made disparaging remarks about the school, bringing about numerous complaints, they put on a free dance for the student body. In December, SCA members encouraged students to bring cans for the food drive. They collected over 1000 cans. The SCA held a breakfast of donuts and juice for the top win- ning homerooms of each grade level.

In November, PLUS members visited the elementary schools of Penn Forest, Green Valley, and Back Creek. There they helped the students prepare for projects involving educational games. Other members worked in the special education program to help the children better adjust to school. Beginning in October, a program called New PLUS was designed to help new students adjust to high school. Those who were in- volved in the program hosted an ice cream so- cial before school began. The PLUS programs fulfilled a duty of bring- ing students of all ages together. While they played a part in social development, the members shared their interests with others and had fun being involved. Lori Eades Attention please!
