An- other VICA project was providing the con- tainers in the smoking area to help keep this section clean. The club then sent out notices to all people with smoking per- mits asking them to please use the newly furnished receptacles. Every spring VICA sponsors a leader- ship skills contest. Students compete ina number of areas including speech, spell- ing, and leadership as well as auto-me- chanics, medical assisting, welding, etc. for the skills portion. If a student does well enough, the student can advance to higher competition. VICA is certainly a welcome addition to the clubs and organizations here at Mon- acan.
