Club activities for the year included a Spanish pot-luck dinner, a trip to Madison to dine at a Mexican restaurant. sponsoring a dance after an athletic event, an end of the year party, and many funfilled meetings.

Clubs Have Fun Here and Abroad Die Kasemacher, a socially oriented club, had a busy year filled with many activities. The group, always thriving on fun, completed a funfilled year of volleyball games against the other language clubs, a progressive dinner, a hayride followed by a Halloween party, and a Christmas caroling party with songs sung in German. Die Kasemacher also sold candy and giant cookies to earn funds to sponsor a visit to a German city where members would learn more about the German culture and language. Der Deutschlandverein, a club with the sole purpose of raising money, devoted itself to bake sales, candy sales, a German dinner, and carnation sales. After much hard work, plans have been made for a trip to Germany next year. The club members are eagerly awaiting their fun-filled and educational trip abroad. The German Clubs not only help members gain experience in fundraising, but also enrich the lives of the members with a better understanding for the German culture. 1 Die Kasemacher.

Capstone Constructs The House the Building Trades Capstone course built was designed by Dave Fahey. The building is a three bedroom ranch-style house. The house has many fine features: two-car garage, backyard deck, full Bauman kitchen, natural gas heating, angled bay picture window and a wood chute. Work on the Capstone house began in the fall. The seventeen seniors on the project worked on the house the last three periods of each school day. In order to be in the Capstone class, a student must take the Construction Exploritory class as a junior. Then after the course, the student may apply for a spot on the Capstone crew. The students in Capstone learn basic skills in plumbing, wiring, masonry, heating and residential carpentry trades. After finishing the course, students have enough knowledge to get a job in the building trades area. 1. Mark and Gary team up to get the job done. 2. Capstone, FRONT ROW: G. Vetterli, J. Rufer, D.
