Dancers A minimum of 12 hours a week practice before a football game and a minimum of 20 hours a week practice spent be- fore contest paid off for the Car- dinal Bells. Before a football game we were always excited. We knew we were going to do well, 2nd Lieutenant Tina Adkins said. August was spent learning skills. Tedious hours went into learning the routines that were performed at the football games, pep rallies, and contest. At the Superstar Line Camp, two officers, Rebecca Chambers and Michele Piro were selected as Superstar candidates. Cham- bers went to Hawaii in Decem- ber and danced during halftime at the Aloha Bowl. She was also selected as Miss Supersensa- tional Line-up at the USA Of- ficer Camp. The Bells felt like a family unit because they spent so much time together. The time spent together was the best part of drill team for some of the girls, junior Jennifer Miller said. After having fun on the way to the Bastrop Invitational, the Bells came home with four Di- vision I scores, two Division II scores, and Best Prop Routine.

FHA HERO is an organization that showed just what giving a little time and consideration to others could bring . The organization was filled with projects that dealt in volunteering a helping hand when needed, and they made a special effort to break the mo- notony of everyday routines for students. By making it their goal to bring others enjoyment they, in turn, received a certain amount of pleasure. I wasn ' t rea lly sure that I wanted to join FH.A HERO at first, but I did and I ' m glad. We have done a lot of fun things like the Chili Cook-Off, and selling Valentine ' s Day cake. Doing things that make other people happy gives you a good feelmg inside that makes all the work worthwhile, freshman Monique Isak said. The group taught it ' s mem- bers that in order to receive you must first give. Members also learned responsibility to the club and leadership abilities were also greatly encouraged. I learned that to get anything done you have to first be willing to work together so that what is planned will get finished. sophomore Tracey Lewis said. FHA HERO was an impor- tant part of the school. It was able to bring to the students small pleasures that brightened their day and it showed others that community service was an important part of life on cam- pus as well as off.
