BACK TOGETHER Never before has Poway High had such a wide spectrum of clubs and club activities as we saw this year. Clubs commissioner Tami Watkins did an ex- cellent job in organizing the first-ever Club Rush week. During this week, each club was given the chance to inform students about their club and the activities that it had planned. Clubs such as Ameri- can Field Service, Theatre Guild, and the Key, Math, and newly formed French Clubs were active. Though only a dozen groups participated in the event, a larger turnout is expected already for next year's rush. This week helped to visually publi- cize the great variety and number of clubs. Tami Watkins commented, Poway High has so much to offer in terms of clubs that there is no reason to be bored here. Poway High School expanded its bound- aries for six new clubs on campus this year. The new additions such as Writers Anonymous led by Tami Marko strove to establish themselves on campus. With the wide range of clubs, the choices seemed endless. And with the endless selection, most students found the club that was right for them. Clubs are a definite means of self-expression, stated senior Tonia Reinys. With the diverse themes which bound together these groups, an equally varied variety of students was drawn. Clubs ranged from that of a politically minded format such as Model United Nations to those meant only to relax and have fun. Others drew students inter- ested in an athletic-based club. Led by the promi- nent Varsity Club, athletes banded together for support and friendship as was the purpose of all the groups. An inevitable aspect of club life was that of fund- raising. Mr. Weiss' major role in the Math Club Snickers sale boosted profits enormously. It was a rare student who was not accosted by the mad salesman. It was felt overall that clubs played a vital role in student life. Amy Blackburn summed it up by say- ing, Clubs relieve the stress of school and give one a chance to meet people with similar interests. Helen McClain entertains the half-time crowd with her piccolo solo.

ASB Working Together By Lori Raber This year's ASB made a goal to be the best, most active ASB ever, commented Brian Maienshein. This past year the ASB made many new traditions which led to a better unity with the student body and the group itself. They sponsored after- game dances, offered a suggestion box and organized committees to improve ac- tivities. The ASB was in charge of most of the major events, such as Homecoming activi- ties, dances and pep rallies. There was a lot of hard work done that was not as well known to the school. The ASB passed out various pictures, sold tickets at lunch, made signs and cleaned up after-school functions. Each member had his own responsibil- ities to the school. Some of these jobs in- cluded publicity, arranging for bands to play, paper-work concerning expenses and posting coming attractions on the sign in front of PHS. We knew we had personal responsibilities, and we expect- ed everyone to do their share, replied Tami Watkins. After a general meeting each day during fourth period, the ASB did their own work. I felt that all the members of the ASB were compatibleg this helped to get things done and made it a terrific year, com- mented Senior Matt Golden. Young artists at work WM? IN!! Uh,-.1 F. Hill, M.
