Any Volunteers? During your lifetime you have probably known someone, (if not yourself), who volunteered their time to different services. What inspired these people to volunteer? Some did so for personal satis- faction of helping others, for experience in future careers or goals, or to meet new people and experience new things. At Classical there were many students who voluntereed their services and helped other people. Their jobs varied from working with the elderly to working at Stage West. One of the many students at Classical who volunteered was Sandra Teague. She worked in the City Library with Mrs. Francis Gagnon. At the library, she helped to research and coordinate monthly displays. Claire Joyal, Roland Joyal, and Kathy Leyden worked at Stage West. Once a month Claire and Kathy were ushers, while Roland worked in the coat room. Another volunteer was Michael Martin, a boy scout for the Catholic Committee on Scouting. He organized a camp so that urban and rural kids were both able to attend. He worked, in addition to his volunteering, two paying jobs yet still managed to find time to volunteer his services once a week. Charles Wilcox did volunteer work for many organizations, one of which was the Evangelical Covenant Church. With this church, he visited the elderly in nurs- ing homes. He also worked as a volunteer with the Four-H-Club, assisting the United Cerebal Palsy on their sporting events. Orga- nizing parties for the mentally retarded was yet another service he rendered. Lynn Kratovil was another volunteer. She worked at BayS- tate Medical center as a candy striper. There, she helped make the nurse’s job a little easier by taking time to visit the patients, deliver their mail and flowers. All of these students who volunteered, and those who also offered their time but weren’t interviewed, were very dedicated people. They found that the jobs were new and exciting experiences. Helping out usually gives people a feeling of great joy and over-all self-apprecia- tion. It is wonderful to know that many Classical students exper- ienced this joy. 1984-1985 Blue White Staff: Editor-In- Chief, Kathleen Leyden; Academics and Underclassmen Editor, Michelle Bauer; Activities Editor, Sherry Fijal; Copy Edi- tor, Sherrie Towne; Features Editor, Ei- leen Gordon; Index Editors, Fred Pi- croski and Shawnol Ridley; Sports Edi- tor, Bruce Feinstein; Senior Photogra- pher, Peter Kaczynski.

Sandra Teague stands proudly beside the sign leading to the quadrangle, a place where the work she does is exhibited proudly to all visitors. Chip Wilcox flashes a smile, feeling proud of the work he has done for the elderly. | He knows the great feeling one receives when giving of himself.
