It takes dedication and persistence on the parts of both the sponsors and the students to accomplish a common purpose and have fun at the same time. A club may benefit the community, the school, and the individual himself. For exam- ple, the foreign language clubs have sponsored needy families, and the SCA donated the jukebox to the school in March. Furthermore, all individuals benefit from the good feeling of working in a group and completing a goal. Being involved in a club enables an individual to meet the Chief Challenge by completing goals and learning about people as well as life throughout the year. ©: lubs and organizations represent one of the many fac- Clubs and Organizations Page 91
