With three different choruses to direct each day, Mrs. Kathy Mraz had her hands full. She taught ap- proximately 150 students and with the help of Mr. John Roach, everyth- ing went smoothly — more or less! With all those eager students, Mrs. Mraz had to work hard to keep them challenged. The choruses learned many new songs, including an arrangement of God Bless America and the popular hit You Light Up My Live . One of the biggest differences in this year ' s chorus, compared to choruses of the past, was the fact that there weren ' t as many out- standing soloists. This helped pro- vide an uncommon blend of voices, and gave the chorus a nice tone quality. Mrs. Mraz took advantage of this characteristic, and taught music which emphasized it. The choruses sold boxes of can- dy in order to raise money for the new sound system that was pur- chased. The proceeds also helped pay for new chorus sweaters for the freshmen. The chorus provided entertain- ment for many people within the community. Under the dedicated supervision of Mrs. Kathy Mraz, chorus me... ' crs grew together and enjoyed themselves.

High school students from St. Boniface, St. Mary ' s and St. Law- rence formed the Lafayette CYO. Each parish had their own basket- ball team, and competed with other teams within the diocese. The club was very active this year. Under the leadership of presi- dent Brian Roark, the group held car washes, sponsored a raffle, and even went on a ski trip to Michigan. The National CYO convention turned out to be quite an experience for Camile Brennan. She boarded a bus at 11:00 p.m. on a Thursday night, along with 41 other CYO members from the Lafayette dio- cese. She arrived in Kansas City at 10:00 a.m. Friday, where she and the rest of the g roup participated in the weekend program. Several CC students were mem- bers of Junior Achievement (JA). They met every week at the Jenks Rest Building at Columbian Park, where they operated their own bu- sinesses and made products which they sold for profit. JA and CYO gave CC students the chance to learn more about themselves and the ability to deal with people.
