For example, they traveled to Brunswick bowling alley for an after- noon of knocking down pins. They also took trips to 7-ll for a treat. Some of the students held down jobs and learned how to take the bus to and from their place of work. Student volun- teers assisted with transportation and education of the disabled students. Jr. Lori Sehleiger, who donated her days during the stufnmer, said, lt's helpful to me because I'd really like to work with the handicapped as a career. nf Paul Somnsm hile reading a magazine, Jr. Carlton Stames improves his comprehension skills.

So, you want to wear a toga and eat sitting on the floor? You've got it! You say you want to hold a leadership position in your class and plan dances and retreats? This is the place to be! In fact, Overland's club program carried such a wide variety of clubs that virtually every area of interest could be met. At the school's opening ten years ago, student council was its only club. Attendance at a typical meeting was five to ten students. But by 1988, it had grown into a group of 150 that met several times each quarter. The clubs program grew at an average rate of three clubs a year to create the 32 clubs in existence by the tenth year. Activities Director Ron Castagna estimated that 600 students were involved in some kind of club or activity. The newspaper staff drew attention to the school in its own way. They received the Regional Pacemaker award from the Columbia Scholastic Press Association and the All- American award from the National Scholastic Press Association. They were also featured in the magazine High School Sports. The clubs' range of interest continued to be extended with the addition of the newest club, Star Risers Organization CSROJ, led by Mr. John Kron and Mr. Tony Manfredi. In numbers and involvement, Overland clubs had come a long way in ten short years. :f: 51575222 521472111 '1'1 5 '7'7iI'1i '5-7 24 -.4-:-:-...fm1.-:-:-:-:-:-:-1 -:-
