Keywanettes Keywanettes-Key Club combination proved positive. A new characteristic of the Keywanettes was its combination with the Key Club on national and district levels. The two clubs remained separate at school, initiating projects individually as well as combined. Keywanettes members paid national and dis- trict dues, thus becoming members on those levels. There was an increase in membership from an average of thirty members from previous years to fifty. More and bigger projects were a result of the increase. We didn't expect it, stated Ilona Lawless, president, 'ibut it was a nice surprise. An anxiously anticipated as well as eagerly awaited event was Rush Week. Participation in the week-long initiation was re- quired for membership. Activities were RainyfFlash Flood Day, Hippiesf60's Day, Wild, Wild West Day, Toga Day, and New Wave Day. Service projects included entering three cars in the Home- coming Spirit Parade, co-sponsoring the Homecoming Dance with Key Club, decorating the school for Homecoming festivi- ties, buying menu boards for the cafeteria, and painting posters for the varsity basketball games. Fund-raising activities includ- ed selling spirit ribbons and candy canes. l48fKeywanettes 2 l. Cindy Kearney and Kelly Greenan show their involvement during Wild, Wild West Day. 2.

f 1 Key Club ' Demerit system proved effective. With twenty-two members, Key Club initiated many service and fund-raising projects that led to a prolific year. There was an increase in participation, which was largely due to stricter policies concerning attendance at meetings and projects and a new demerit system. Members received a designated number of demerits for non-attendance, whether excuses or unexcused, and excessive talking during meeting. Key Club managed to raise a large amount of money through fund-raising projects such as Valentine's Day Carnation sales and the showing of a movie, It,s Alive. The proceeds went to paying for an issue of the RAM-PAGE, donating 3250.00 to the local Ronald MacDonald House, contributing Sl00.00 to RAM COUNTRY, and sponsoring the Homecoming Dance. Service projects included lining the soccer field, painting school trash cans, and helping with the annual Gator City Kiwanis Pancake Sale held at the Gainesville High School cafeteria on March 6. Members attended the Florida Key Club Convention held at Daytona Beach at the Plaza Hotel from April Z9-May 2, where district and national Key Club officers were elected. l.
