One of the largest clubs at Northside is Thespian Troup 2892. In order to become a member a student must have a number of hours that he had worked in theatrical events, points earned must come from working with Northside Drama. For many in the troup, the One-Act play, “Runaways, was the most important event all year, which took second place in State Literary Competition. Preparation be gan for the Georgia Thespian Conference held February 12-14 in Valdosta. These fu- ture actors were exposed to every facet of theatre. A very short two weeks later, on February 26-27, the Thespians sponsored the annual Miss Northside Pageant held at the Warner Robins Civic Center. The mem- bers of the troup were worn out, but not too worn out to hold a Dinner Theatre on April 8-9. Because “Runaways” was so well re ceived at Conference, the group was invit- ed to perform at a Vocational Conference, April 21-22 at Jekyll Island. While all this was going on, the Thespians had already begun plans for the Spring Musical! This year's show was “Bye, Bye Birdie,’’ which cast any student willing to dance and sing. In Jek Jody ion $s “Bye, Bye Birdie’ delighted audiences on May 19-21 with vibrant dance routines and quiet love songs. The constant working together causes bonds to fo rm. Under the direction of Mr. Gerald Ray Horne, the group won awards as well as confidence and friendship. For most members, Mr. Horne became more like a father, who was also referred to as “Daddy Horne.’ The Thespian Northside students learned to share their talents and expand their horizons. yll Island, Regina Moore Mullendore, and Rob Gor ak up the sun and forget about work!

One club that continually has one of the largest memberships is VICA, or Vocation- al Industrial Clubs of America. VICA is the club that included the many Northside stu- dents who were in the job program. There were many outstanding events during the year for this successful club. The first be- ing a new sponsor, Mr. Holloman, who brought new energy to the students. Mr. Holioman also gave them a new slogan — America’s new professionals. Pride in what we do. For JR Dunagan and Mike Harrison, VICA provided a free weekend at the VICA Spring Conference in Atlanta. Some of the club's other activities included several breakfasts at Shoney's, and a sweat shirt fund raiser that swept the North side of town. After the Eagles second victory over the Demons, VICA sold sweat shirts don- ning the slogan ‘‘Ain't it nice to beat'em twice.'’ The project was defintely a hit as was the entire VICA program in 1988. Building a Homecoming float is an annual project for VICA. Mike Williamson place second in the state in the VICA competition Shelly Williams, treas. J.R. Dunagan, pres. Mike Brantley, parl.
