The Spanish Club this year was very active, participating in such things as a Holloween masquerade party, a Christmas party at Hope Village, an annual Hay Ride and a trip to San An- tonio. They also attended the San Jacinto Foreign Language Contest on Feb. 20. Julie Peterson, senior, president, attributes the success this year to the officers. They were really super! They were always willing to help. At the beginning of the year, we decided to let each officer plan one month activity. It worked out really well. We were busy all year long! This year's Spanish Club officers were Peterson, president, Alan Herring, junior, vice-president, Elena Lopez, senior, recording secretary, San Juanita Cardenas, senior, treasurer, Margarita Perez, senior, social secretary, Angie Galano, social chairman, and Larry Burleigh, junior, parliamentarian. The main purpose oi the Spanish Club is to give Spanish students a chance to become more involved in their school and community and to help the students further their knowledge of the Spanish language and culture. At the end of the year, Gloria Shitflet and Jackie Hardwick, Spanish teachers, presented awards to outstanding students. Carlitos Tiet, Excellence Award for Level 2, Carlota Pham, Ex- cellence Award for Level 3, Elena Henry, Excellence Award for Level 4, Cardenas, Excellen- ce Award for Level 5.

Maybe one day I can visit them and even talk with them. -Lori Hedge if The main reason I took Spanish was because I thought it would be neat to speak two languages.
