Under the guidance of Mrs. Tra- mel, the French Club had a re- warding year. All sixty-four mem- bers paid two-dollar dues. These funds were later used to purchase file cabinets and films for the school. The club also gave a schol- arship to an outstanding French student. The entire school bene- fited from the generous French Club. In December, Kristi Connelly hosted a party which everyone en- joyed. In February, the club went to Charleston where they saw a movie and ate lunch. This summer several members are planning a trip to France for Bastille Day which is equivalent to our Fourth of July (Independence Day). Junior Lara Craven was elected as President; Sophomore Matthew Addison was selected as Vice- President; and the club chose Cin- dy Kinard as Secretary-Treasurer. Students enjoyed participating in the largest French Club yet! Sixty-Four Strong (Left) French Club meetings aren’t all work and no play!

Mr. Hartshorn sponsored the Science Club for his fourth year. The club had many fund-raising projects including cake raffles and car washes. Each member was re- quired to pay dues of two dollars. At the end of the year, the Science Club gave a scholarship to a stu- dent pursuing a science-oriented career. Last year the club did not have enough money for a trip. This year they took the combined funds and went on a trip in the spring. All members met set require- ments: maintained a C average; did a Science Fair project; attend- ed all meetings.

The Broadcast Club was divid- ed into three groups again this year: alpha, beta, and gamma. Each group chose its own manag- ers and directors and produced its own shows. Last year, the club won second place in comedy in the state com- petition. Kathleen Simmons and Carmen Long won first place for their achievement in public af- fairs. The club was also runner-up for creativity and Club of the Year. In addition to these honors, Randy Warren was elected as state Vice-President.
