Main activities this year were four sports days. These were planned to encourage friendly competi- tion between schools in such sports as basketball, volleyball, gymnastics, and softball. Possibly the most appreciated project of the GAA was the sale of doughnuts before school in thle cafe- teria. Late-risers and cereal-haters found this es- pecially inviting. The Girls' Athletic Association also participated in a camping trip with Southeast and Palmetto High.
