Latin Club A unique and active club at Green Mountain is the Latin Club. Stu- dents who are currently taking Latin, or have taken Latin previously, can join the club. The club officers have the same structure as the Greek gov- ernment. There are two Presidents, or Consulas. They are senior Wendy Schlenzig and junior Lisa Kay. Mike Losasso and Debra Davis are the two Vice-Presidents or Vice- Consulas. This year's secretary is Michelle Bol- laig and the treasurer is Jeffery Obe- china. There are also two censors, Chris Calandra and James Boyd, and two poster makers who are Sean Steyer and Andy Runyan. Latin Club meets every other week, and each month they have speakers on a different topic that pertains to the club. Besides the meetings, they also have a variety of activities. During the homecoming barbeque this year, they sold Pando- ra's Boxes. They also went to a Lisa Kay Greek restaurant with the Latin Clubs from Wheatridge, Arvada, and Arvada West. They got to see a Greek show, and they even partici- pated in the Greek dancing. They made and sold yarn, Christmas canes, and gave Christmas cards to all the teachers. On Valentine's Day, the club decorated the school with signs and posters wishing the stu- dents and staff a Happy Valentine's Day. In the spring, the club celebrated the birthday of Rome from April 21st to April 30th. The members dis- played projects representing Greco- Roman culture. The club also had outdoor picnics and Roman ban- quets where they feasted on deli- cious and exotic Greek foods. The Latin Club is a really active group at GMHS and if there is something ex- citing going on at school don't be surprised if Latin Club has some- thing to do with it.

International Club All Club members talk at a ,r meeting. Ever dream of travelling to far away lands or seeing famous sights? The members of Interna- tional Club have. International Club was created in order to allow members to become involved with the cultures and languages of oth- er countries. Their ultimate goal is to take a trip to Mexico some- time next summer. Meanwhile they occupy their time by selling gumi bears to raise money and eating at international restau- rants. This year, they've gone to the Magic Pan and to the Old Country. The club is almost en- tirely made up of sophomores and three out of the four officers held offices last year. They are Presi- dent Anne Clarke, former secre- tary, Vice President Polly Boeg- lie, former treasurer, Laurie Bier former vice President, now trea- surer, and newly elected secretary Renae Hood. Because they will not be able to afford a trip this year, President Anne Clarke is planning a ski trip to Keystone over Waishington's Birthday weekend. Their goals for the club are to become culturally educated and have a lot of fun at the same time! it I Anne is International Club s sec ond president Like most of the Interna Club members, she is a sophomore. was the secretary for the club last year.

These returning members are looking forward to another yilar. X The GMHS forensics team has set more tongues wagging this year than ever before. With their ever increasing skill and talent, it's not hard to see why. Since the forensics team was first formed under coach David Shepard, they've never failed at success. This year is no exception. The team is taking home more honors than ever before. Currently, the GMHS forensics team is ranked number one in the district with Golden a distant second, a fact that is cause for much pride. At the CSU invi- tational, Green Mountain took fourth overall with people placing in Drama .-Y -.pg is Q , Y WMV, . al ' 5, interp., Duet acting, Cross-examina- tion, Humor, and other events. As of this point in time, the team has two people qualified for the National Com- petition in Tulsa, Oklahoma in con- gressj They are seniors Dmitry Cher- nyak and Ed Knight. National qualify- ing rounds for events will be held at CSU in April and it's a sure bet that GMHS will have more qualifiers then. Though the team will be losing many of their key people, next year they vow they will pull together to be better than ever. Bear Creek, Watch out!
