The new board is elected at the close of each year by members of GAA. They meet about once a month and dis- cuss activities for the girls. One of the special activities of the board this year was to decorate the goal posts for the Homecoming game. GAA WINNING TEAM. ROW l: K. Wallace, J. Struve, B. Chris- topherson, P. McNulty, M.

Two of the activities this year which proved to be a big success were all the girls going to see a Laker game and the All-Star Class tournament. The girls were kept busy all year with many different things to do. gf 1.4 -' 'tr -Cl GAA BOARD. ROW I: J, Struve, A. Swanson, J. Parks, K. Wallace. ROW II: S. Robertson, D. Christopherson, J.

N I WALKING THE TIGHTROPE Not all activities have been strictly for pleasure, however. One of the basic princi- ples of Y-Teens is serving others, and the members find that collecting warm clothing for needy families, and brightening drab hos- pital rooms with holiday favors enriches their own lives as well as the lives of those they serve.

The Greatest Show on Earth was the theme of the membership party which head- ed a long list of activities on the Y-Teen cal- endar: the Christmas party, the Valentine party for seventh and eighth graders, the style show sponsored by the Dayton Com- pany, the Easter breakfast, and the spring formal. The climax of the year's events was the Y-Teen banquet, where the new officers were announced and pins and guards award- ed to the members. EASTER PROJECT One of the most memorable events of every year is the recognition service. As each Y- Teen lights her candle, she rededicates her- self to our common purpose: To build a fel- lowship of women and girls devoted to the task of realizing in our common life those ideals of personal and social living to which we are committed by our faith as Christians. In this endeavor we seek to understand Jesus, to share His love for all people, and to grow in the knowledge and love of God.
