Australia Forfeits Sue Bird AFS had a busy year, with an AFS student in Monroe, and two AFS students returning to Monroe. Sandy Reese spent 3 months in Tunisia, Africa, David Keith spent a year in Thailand, and Sue Bird, from Australia, stayed with the Ableman family for a year. Each gave a slide presentation at an AFS meeting which added depth and knowledge to the group. Money to greet AFS students, and to help AFS students going abroad, was earned through pizza sales and a pizza drive in the spring. Ms. Martha Etter and Mr. Kubly were advisors for AFS Club this year. Their guidance was much appreciated, especially during AFS Week, held in Monroe from March 6 to the 12.

German Club Translates Into Fun German Club was here, there, and everywhere this year. When not attending a meeting, or out selling Gummy Bears, stationery, Kaiser Candy of Gem all-purpose cleaner, they were at one of their many volleyball games, bowling parties, or roller skating parties. Members also went Christmas carolling in German through area nursing homes and around the square. They also assisted in the Monroe Arts and Activities Centers Christmas program. The money earned was spent on their party refreshments, but most of it was saved, to be used for a trip to Germany sometime in the future. At Awards Night, held in May, Deb Meier was presented with Die Kasema-cher, (The Cheesemaker), Award, for being the best salesperson for German Club throughout the year.

The Fine Arts Prosper Catharsis, the fine arts magazine of student contributions, was once again a success. The faithful staff put in many long hours of hard work to produce the winter and spring issues of Catharsis. The money earned from the sales of Catharsis was used to finance the next issue. Lunch shifts and the Fine Arts Fair were when most of the sales took place, plus those sold at chorus and band concerts. Local establishments, Pipers Dream, Sassfras and Calico, and Gift Castle, also took an interest in selling Catharsis. Mr. Prueher and Ms. Sobotkiewicz were once again advisors for Catharsis, and both proved to be a friend as well as an advisor. Art Club again used their talents to construct the set for the school musical, and worked as backstage crew during the production. Many hours of work went into the set, but all those involved enjoyed it. Art Club also provided the backbone for the Fine Arts Fair held May 12-15. Setting up and arranging displays, together with contributing their own artistic masterpieces to the Fair was a memorable experience for all. Photography Club members had an opportunity for many adventures, clicking away on their cameras for fun and practice. Their photographs were submitted to Catharsis, and used for candids in the M-Book, besides being part of each individual's proud collection. Their pictures of people, places, and events will play a big part in their photographs and memories of MHS. CLOCKWISE. TOP LEFT: One of the art exhibits at the Fine Arts Fair.
