Importe-cl? Club Promoted Foreign Study By Kim Preston Learning the English language is tough enough, but members of the French and Spanish clubs chose to pursue a second lan- guage as well. The main purpose of the French Club was to enhance the love and support of the French culture and unite the French speaking stu- dents from different classes. The Spanish Clubs purpose was to get stu- dents more involved with Spanish outside the classroom. The Spanish Club met the second Tuesday of each month to collect dues and discuss up- coming events. They hoped to hold a fund raiser to raise money for new teaching aids such as a VCR and camera. Also, they hoped to attend a performance of the Ballet Folklor- ico de Mexico. The French Club held the Paris in Spring messages as a fund raiser in hopes to attend the play 'La Petit France' and any others that came up. The French Club also got together with the Spanish Club and planned activities for For- eign Language week, March 5-ll, such as fashion shows and a small play. , 1 . fgL.1fi 'i' :if of If 3 ik X Ag Jennifer Ulsberger encourages some students to join a club Stacey Trombetta and David jackson collect monthly dues. 162!French and Spanish Clubs
