VIVENT LA FRANCE ET LE CERCLE FRANCAIS M — . j . Pm w K f r ■«• t m ' € mRW Did you ever want to speak another language or taste foreign dishes? Well, the members of French Club had a chance to experience all of this and more. According to senior Andrea Zaenglein, French Club was a FUN way to know the French people and better understand their culture. For my friends and me, Mr. Garnett has given us a treasure of knowledge and memories to carry on through our lifel expressed senior Blake Eitniear. The club activities were few, but they were sufficient to instill that feeling of unity and brotherhood. Each member worked hand in hand making sure the crepes were not too crisp or the fillings too American . During warmer days they played football (with sponsor Mr. Norm Garnett as quarterback of course!), ate hot dogs, and traveled to Cedar Point. Like the Three Muskateers, Mr. Garnet t ' s philosophy was all for one and one for all. FRENCH CLUB I9S4-S5.
