4 FHA, the Future Homemakers of Ameri- ca, is a community service club which is open to any student enrolled in Mrs. Strait’s home economics classes. The en- rollment in FHA varies because some stu- dents do not remain in a home ec class all year long. Barbara Stubbs served as presi- dent of FHA and remained in foods classes throughout the course of the year. Club members served the community in many different ways. They visited local nursing homes on Christmas and other holidays. At Easter, they decorated Elberta Nursing Home. The FHA also collected for UNICEF on Halloween by going to homes trick-or-treating for money. The FHA also provided a service for spe- cial events at Northside. The Homecoming Tea and the Miss Northside Tea are both planned and prepared by the students in Mrs. Strait’s classes. Boys as well as girls lend a helping hand in the preparation. The annual FBLA banquet is also prepared by the FHA. Without the fruit and vegetable trays, the delicious pastries, and the foun- tains of punch that the FHA prepared, none of these special events would have been quite so special. In June, the FHA traveled to FHA Camp to learn new ideas in cooking, sewing, and home management. The club as a whole fulfilled their motto, ‘‘Toward New Horizons.” Front Row Mark Rissman Marie Kemp Keri Singleton Amber Ray Kathy Wynn Berna Webb Back Row: Sonja Mauerer Amy Wright Leigh Ann Calhoun Deneb Frederick Lyda Guillory Michelle Newton Barbara Stubbs Phillis Nealy Sherolyn Ford Trina Shiver FHA PROVIDES INVALUABLE ‘RVI CE Students enjoy snacks that were prepared by the FHA.

FCA ENCOURAGES PRIEND SHI The FCA was a very active part of the sports scene at Northside. The club en- couraged friendship as well as sportsman- ship among all athletes. The FCA, Fellow- ship of Christian Athletes, supported various teams throughout the school. When the girl’s softball team advanced to the region playoffs, the FCA gave each player a softball with candy attached to it in order to boost team spirit. Their efforts were successful because the softball team, coached by FCA sponsor Coach Carreker, went on to take the championship. The FCA is made up of athletes from various teams. Cheerleaders, basketball players, football players, softball and base- ball players, members of the track, golf, and tennis teams all come together each Thursday morning at 8:05 to discuss fel- lowship in athletics. ‘‘To present to ath- letes and coaches, and all whom they influ- ence, the challenge and adventure of receiving Jesus Christ as Saviour and Lord, Serving Him in their relationships and in the fellowhip of the church,”’ was the FCA’s motto. Rochelle Greer, pres; Joey Rigsby, v.pres; Ronda Huddleston, sec; and Shanna Weaver, tres; led the club to carry out their motto and to bring fellow- ship into Northside’s athletics.
