Dancing the night away, Pam Watts gets into a tango. Dancing was lust one of the activi- ties at the Finertz ' s annual Halloween party. Finertz French Club Culture Thrives ■ ■ lie John W. North Society for IKJi Cultural and Community Awareness. Could there really be such a thmg? Had you asked any FINERTZ member the answer would have been Yes. Founded in 1966 by Mrs. Ober, Finertz was basically a community service or- ganization that ushered at various cul- tural productions around the county. But community service was not the group ' s only focus. There were many parties, trips, and, of course, weekly meetings. Parties such as the club ' s annual Hal- loween Party, which was thrown at Alana Cortes ' house, were held occa- sionally. The parties weren ' t wild but they were fun! commented Calvin Hao. Though Mrs. Ober advised Finertz, she still had time for other organizations, namely the FRENCH CLUB. Members of the French Club found themselves involved in many activities such as a dinner at Gerard ' s, a local French Restaurant, fund raisers, and outings with their sister club Finertz. For both clubs, the fund raisers, trips, a nd parties all came together to create an exciting and memorable year. I think the fact that both clubs had many combined activities made both more enjoyable to be in, stated Sung Robbins. • •.■ C ' est la Vie!
