Just Like Home How is it possible for school to be just like home? Ask the Future Homemakers of America. The FHA club baked goods, made articles of clothing and even took care of children on occasions. But, this is not all FHA did. They took several trips, held interesting demonstrations in their meetings, helped with parades and even planned social events. The FHA had a very productive year and is still going strong. They worked hard to make C.H.S. a home for the students and faculty. yy thet hfe tad te Ve TF? i at ba St ty 28 FHA ROW I: Mrs. Sarah Schember, Melissa Seaver, Susan Sullivan, Nora Randolph ROW 2: Diane Seaver, Sherry Nolan, Lisa Martin, Tina Moorefield, Iris Fisher, Elaine Marshall, Dayna Woodson ROW 3: Jennifer Watson, Amy Anderson, Tammy Stin- son, Trina Mayo, Terry McAbee, Norma Rickman ROW 4: Michelle Childress, Kim Ross, Wanda Swann, Donna Miles, Sophia Bland, Lynn Couch ROW S: Sakatra Trent, Cynthia Crawley, Traci Jackson, Antoinette Brooks, Michelle Cooper 1.

A Helping Hand One club at CHS is always willing to lend a helping hand. That club is the Kee Club. This year the club tried to help others make it in the world. Members jumped rope for the heart fund, walked for the Virginia Lung Association, contributed to the Res- cue Squad, gave blood to the Red Cross, and raised funds to help Ophelia Redmond get a new motorized wheel- chair. Members had fun in other ways. They sponsored the Sweetheart Dance in February, went on a skating trip, and took a hike to Bear Creek Lake. The club got a new sponsor this year, Mr. Harold Holmes. Although new to the county, he has been a tre- mendous asset to the club. RIGHT: Vice President Eugene James hurries to start the October meeting.
