From arcades to auctions, club activity funds were raised by deuoted members who bore the title The money makers Fund Raising is a very important part of all clubs and organizations. For many groups, fund raising is their only source of revenue. The most important part of these projects is to find something that students will buy, One of the best ideas of the year was brought up by the Highsteppers. They let the student body choose thirteen male students they would like to see in a calendar. This item was especially liked by the girls. Ml thought the calendar was a great idea, and I thought the student body was good in their choicesf' commented Highstepper Dawn Clark. The Student Council sold multi-colored suckers for a quarter. This money helped pay for the foyer furniture and remainder of the bill for painting the water tower. German Club enjoyed one of its most suc- cessful years in fund raising. Their Novemberfest booth brought in over S200 in profit. German Club member Vikki Dorris said, f'This was the club's best year ever. Another idea came from VHOE, who sold live carnations for Valentines Day. This year saw many new and interesting fund raising ideas. The money raised helped improve the school and allowed groups and clubs to broaden their learning experiences. Senior Chris Douglas displays his auctioning talents while raising money for his business class. Funds for South Pacific were raised by sponsor- ing the Bali Hai Arcade which was set up in the O.C.S. room. VHOE raised money by selling live carnations for Valentines Day.

Everyone wants to get as close to the front as possible. The many shows and programs provided a break from everyday school life. Students paid almost any price to get out of class. No matter what it was, I usually went. Some of the shows really got to me, though. But thatls okay, I always got a good nap, ex- cept when 'O'Siris, came, Sophomore Ricky Card commented. If students could not raise the money for the cost of show tickets there was an alter- native. On the days of scheduled programs, early dismissals were common. lt got unreal. There were about 200 students in 30 Shows f Programs the main office, and they wanted their dismissals all at the same time, Senior Rhonda Sills, an office employee, stated.
