The Carl Traeger Nature Center, a beautiful addition to our school, required the time of m any people. The mon- ey gained from former principal Dr. Traeger’s memorial helped to bring about the idea of the Nature Center. Carl Traeger had a great love for the beauty of nature. Con- sidering his interest, teacher's meetings were held to discuss how to use the money from his memorial. Since more money was needed for plants and a greenhouse, the schoolboard agreed to give money for those pur- poses. Many people contributed their time and efforts in the designing and building of the Nature Center, includ- ing FFA members, horticulture classes, landscaping classes, art classes, the maintenance crew, and town members. O’Neil Honor Society members handled the dedication of the Carl Traeger Nature Center on October 6, 1983. The Nature Center was not the only accomplishment for FFA members. The floriculture team of Julie Buehring, Chris Krueger, and Wendy Yoder placed 12th in the na- tion at the FFA convention in Kansas City, MO. They qualified for national competition by winning the state contest. At the state event, the girls had to take a written test, an identification test, and judge flowers and plants. Overall scores from teams were tabulated to see who won. To prepare for this contest, the FFA members viewed a computerized list of plants to practice identifi- cation.

Thanksgiving is a time for sharing, and the HERO club did just that. They baked 162 pumpkin pies for Father Carr to use at his Thanksgiving dinner. The club has done this in the past, but this was the first time under the direction of Mrs. Christine Kneip. Mr. Roger Schmidke, regular advi- sor of HERO, was ina car accident at the beginning of the year and was unable to return to school for many months. HERO club, which consists of fifteen members, took first, second, and fourth hours of the three days before Thanksgiving vacation to make those pies. Mrs. Kneip said, ‘| was surprised at how much was accom- plished in that time.’’ On Monday, the crusts were made, on Tuesday and Wednesday, the fillings were made and the pies were completed. ‘We had a good time making the pies because we knew it was for a good cause,”’ said junior Kris Kosmer. “The project also gave the students experience in mass production,’ said Mrs. Kneip. Not only did HERO club make the pies, but they also sold calendars earlier in the year to raise money for the ingredients in the pies. Other projects that the HERO club undertook were the baking cookies for the Indianfest, baking and selling nut breads for Christmas, or which they had 220 orders, and making a gingerbread house for a party at Pollack Alum- ni House.
