United Way Drive, Carnival raise money for groups, club Major fund-raising activities for Northwest students centered around the an- nual United Way drive and the all-school Carnival. Monies raised from the drives went to benefit local agencies and school clubs and organizations. For the first time in six years, the Northwest students did not win first place in the United Way Fund Drive among the city high schools. East High captured first place honors and was followed by North for second place. Northwest students con- tributed SL649 for the annual charity drive. The week-long drive was filled with fun and exciting events involving student par- ticipation. Such activities included class competitions, spirit chains, M 84 M guess, and a special Anything Goes Assembly. Senior Rodger Clark was named the first Miss Grizzly in a humorous beauty pageant involving contestants from each of the three classes and faculty. The seniors won the most number of points in the various com- petitions during the Anything Goes Assembly. The all-school Carnival provided a chance for different school clubs and organizations to be active and earn money at the same time. The annual event was sponsored by the Fellowship of Christian Athletes. Crowds of students filled the gymnasium ready for an evening of fun and games with friends and family. Booths included a cake walk, basketball throw, jail, pie throw, male dancers, ping pong throw, soccer kicks, balloon break and foods of all kinds. Each booth offered prizes to winners. Creativity and imagination was definitely present amidst the sixth annual all-school Carnival. -Genelle Neal a M . H , I , , ' ' V .
