Bigger . Better! Bigger and better — these are two words that definitely could be used to describe the 1985-86 Spanish Club. Larger than ever before, the club had a total of 85 members and two sponsors, both of whom were new to Pflugerville High School. When the students were told about the exciting things planned for the year, they joined left and right and waited for the activities to begin. All the different activities were fun because all the members were involved. That's what made the club such a success, said junior Shannon Lee, club president. At the beginning of the school year, many of the members met at La Mesa restaurant. The idea be- hind the get together was for everyone to get a taste of Old Mexico. Another fun-filled event that took place was a trip to San Antonio in December. The group vis- ited the Institute of Texas Culture and had the chance to eat and shop in the Spanish Market. Then everyone loaded back on the bus and were taken to the famous San Antonio River Walk and rode the riverboats. After the boat ride, the stu- dents participated in Las Posadas, which involved a Mexican singing group. The exhausting day ended with a bus load of sleepy students returning home dreading having to get up and go to school the next morning. The club also joined with the drama classes and sponsored a Christmas dance to raise money for future club functions. Many of the students brought Christmas lights and tinsel to decorate the commons. The dance turned out to be very profit- able Eighty-five active members meant that the club could be, and would be an influencing factor on P.H.S. This was our first year with the club and we enjoyed it and are hoping for an even better year in the 1986-87 school year, stated Nedra Vance and April Nevill, club sponsors. Foreign Languages 1.
