lub very school has clubs that the students got involved in, but not one of those clubs can compare to Overland's. Most schools have National Honor Societies, yearbooks, and computer clubs, but do those schools have award Winning newspapers like the Overland Scout or one of the largest students councils where over 150 people attend each meeting, like Overland's student council? Students involved in clubs attended meetings before and after school. The clubs benefited the school by raising money, sponsoring food, clothes and toy drives for the needy, and helping the school earn and maintain a good reputation in the community. The clubs contributed to the uncommon aura of Overland. SR. ZOE COHEN, president of the Bicycle Club, discusses plans for their next project. INTERNATIONAL CLUB MEMBERS Srs.

Homecoming: that word meant different things to differ- ent people, but to Student Council it meant work',! Homecoming was a really good time for the school to 'ral- ly' on an activity. Faculty and students had a feeling of really belonging to Overland. No oth- er Student Council had the amount of quality activities that Overland put on for Home- coming, said Student Council President Evan Armatas. The sold out, two-hour long airband, which took over fifty hours and four weeks to put to- gether, alone was an excellent example of the quality of Over- land's activities. Student Coun- cil was also responsible for oth- er activities such as pep rallies, retreats, fund raisers, and com- munity service projects. 'flt forces people to cooperate and make commitments to their school and classmates, said Student Council Sponsor Ben STUDENT COUNCIL MEETINGS brought forth a wide variety of partici- pants. Sr. Keilayn Skutvik approaches the tasks at hand with a more serious attitude than Sr. Geoff Murphy. 1 06 Clubs .. . ,.., . ,... ,,,,,,p3V , . M ,, STUDENT COUNCIL Bowen. Jr. Heather Frost said, Student Council not only helps the school and the public, but it also helps individuals feel im- portant. Fr. Stacy Groves said, The goals for Student Council are to get students involved and to en- courage them to get into the school spirit. It's really impor- tant to encourage students to become involved in Student Council, especially freshmen who are new to the school? For those who were involved, they took it seriously. I really feel the Student Council at Over- land is taken very seriously. It shows in everything the group does along with the large num- ber of students who are active in it,', said Sr. Melissa Cooper. Student Council was one of the few clubs which allowed stu- dents to give a little bit of them- selves back to Overland. Soph. Andrea Reitz said, It just shows that they really care. JRS. MICHELLE DVEIRIN and Sta- cey Reeder help serve the food at the Friday night barbeque. The barbeque was only one of the many activities sponsored by the Student Council dur- ing Homecoming Week.
