BSU MECHA Goals Reached SU gives me a chance to be- come involved with school activities, stated Penny Shaw. In giving Shaw and other members this opportunity, the club ' s purpose was fulfilled. Advi- sor William Anderson commented, Our main purpose was to acquaint ourselves with all aspects of the school and community. Personal gains found through being in BSU contributed to a rise in atten- dance at meetings. BSU has helped me become more independent, ex- claimed Leyha Callender. This inde- pendence was gained through respon- sibilities given to each member in ac- tivities such as flower and candy sale. Sales, Sales, Sales! MECHA found bake sales and car washes to be a quick, profitable way to make money. The work they put into conducting these fundraisers was rewarded with trips to Disneyland and the beach. I don ' t always like having fundraisers, but I know their results will be benefi- cial, stated Gloria Avila. MECHA ' s main purpose was to help students involve themselves in school activities. President Glorine Jimenez commented, If we can help each member improve in some aspect of school life our purpose will be achieved. ' Whether fulfilling their pur- pose or just enjoying themselves, mem- bers actively participated in the events MECHA sponsored. ••• A president ' s job is never done. At a lunch- time meeting BSU President Damon Kniqht pre- pares to discuss the upcoming events. [84 organizations
