Interact, ey, ptimist Participate ll Servin One of the reasons I joined the Opti- mist Club was to help other people. So said member Brian Abernathy. Being a member of this club meant get- ting involved in service to the school and community. Members helped with the starting of the parades and partici- pating in fun activities such as bowling. Accordin to Vice President James Pi also meant serving the school and com- munity. It's a great club because a sense of unity develops out of sharing a common goal, he added. Members of the Key Club became very active throughout the year by selling football programs, attending conven- tions, and participating in service pro- jects, such as a canned food drive for the needy. Karee Spurling said, One of the main reasons I joined the Interact Club was to meet interesting people.

L Clubs Set Goals For T e Future Adopting-a-grandparent was one fun activity FHA-HERO participated in. Members visited convalescent homes and spent their time talking to the el- derly. The main purpose of this activity was promoting the FHA-HERO State Thrust, Understanding the Elderlyf' FHA-HERO is a national organiza- tion, and stands for Future Homemak- ers of America-Home Economics Re- lated Occupations. Members start by joining the local chapter at their school. They then can attend subregional, re- gional, state, and even national meet- ings. Some may even become officers at these levels. At the meetings this year, members of 80fFHA-HERO, I.F.C., C.S.F. FHA-HERO entered CRE Competi- tive Recognition Events. Through CRE they tested their skills in salad making, child care, prepared speech, and even energy conservation as a few of the events. Through the International Friendship Club, I.F.C. started the year off right by having a Christmas party, and invit- ing not only foreign exchange students, but foreign language clubs at North, as well. Those included were the French, Ger- man and Spanish clubs. The members and guests all exchanged gifts and played some really fun games. Other activities included an Intern tional dinner in the spring and a picn at the end of the year. Raising money for scholorships in re ognition of academic excellence North High, is how Lisa Tramme the historian of the California Schola ship Federation, expressed the purpo of the club. Being accepted in tl C.S.F. means a certain grade poi average must be maintained. Being member of this group enables you receive a gold seal on your diplon which is very important in furtherii your education. One of the bigge fund-raising activities for the C.S.F. the selling of hot chocolate at the Poi der Puff game.
