The ski club took many trips this year, mostly to Bachelor because of its variety of slopes for skiers of all ages and skills, said advi- sor Ms. Houston.

CHOIRS LIFT THEIR VOICES TO THE SKY Projecting their voices! Concert choir made their voices heard. Introducing the performers is Mrs. Ei- tcnicr. She was the back-bone of ail Ma- zama choirs. Sixty-two students made up this year's Mazama AC Choir. In order to be in this elite group, the stu- dents had to audition for Mrs. Ei- tenier, their director. The singers performed mostly serious literature which ranged from renaissance through contem- porary time periods. They partici- pated in many singing activities, including the Mazama KU Choral Concert. SOME A Choral Festival, and the International Music Festi- val in San Francisco. In order to attend the special out of town concerts, the singers had to earn their way through various fund raisers. Many money-maker activities were held throughout the year. The AC Choir group worked very hard to accomplish what they set out to do. The music they per- formed was very challenging. Mrs. Eitenier says they met their chal- lenges with 3-D Excellence — Dedication, Determination, and Discipline; Becoming the best choir Mazama has seen. All that Jazz is a choir made up of students who auditioned for their membership and were willing to attend an early-bird class. They performed in several places throughout Oregon including Portland, Pleasant flill, and Eagle Point. They also performed as a special international festival in San Francisco where an untimely bus failure caused hours of delay. The best was made of the situation as the group toured the wharf with Mr. Fitzpatrick in tow. In order to cover the expenses for their out- of-town trips, the group held nu- merous fund raisers. All members were also in Ad- vanced Choir.
