SADD Glen Tripp heads out on another Safe Ride call. Nat Hazard and Jim Roberts wonder why students drink and drive. ITT 'Q X. X Students Helping Students By Chris Blackburn Students Against Drunk Driving saw a major increase in campus participation over the year. Last year this club was held together by only a handfull of students, This year the club was over 70 students strong. lt's nice to see such a great inter- est in SADD. This is the kind of club every- one should be involved with in some way, replied Michelle McClure. There were many ways in which stu- dents could have been involved with SADD. This was due to the overall expan- sion of the program. Safe Rides was one way the program headed in a new direc- tion. Every other Friday and Satur- day,Poway High students could be seen at the AIRS building between IO pm and 3 am. The students received calls from teen- agers who needed a safe ride home. These students spent a lot of valuable time and gas. SADD's maior protects was to inform the student body about substance abuse and the dangers of drinking and driving. Some students even had the opportunity to council students in the middle schools. Students Against Drunk Driving was the perfect club for those students who wanted to inform people of substance abuse. Thanks to dedication this all came true. 130 SADD ,es . . A QQZI.- xxg ywvwm.

FBLA Preparin for life By Lori Raber What does it take to be a future busi- ness leader? Just the desire to work and learn. This year's FBLA club had a definite plan of action to start the year off with. Each member received an information sheet, outlining everything they could ex- pect to learn from the experience. Some of the major points of the club were to teach leadership, participation, working with others and decision making. With FBLA I felt like l was getting a head start, commented Dan Orner. A large goal of the club was to provide a better understanding of the American business enterprise system. Fund raisers such as selling candy, helped the members finance activities. Touring businesses and industries gave them a clear view of business in action. Direct interaction with professionals also gave experience. Future Business Leaders of America gave the students an opportunity to learn about our business system and have a great time while doing it. Discussing business over lunch? Jon Orner and John Schnur are caught in the act. FBLA 129

The truth was that Future Farmers of America was one of the oldest clubs on campus. The actual class was located far off from the hustle and bustle of everyday campus life. The agriculture area of our school was one of the most separate and secluded places. Future Farmers of America has grown immensely in the past four years due to the greater interest in animals and plants, commented President Ricky Ken- nedy. Most students did not realize that there are active FFA clubs in all 50 states and Puerto Rico. The students in this program learned personal leadership and development which was best achieved through the out- standing chapter of FFA here at Poway High. -my 4 Q J. DeBerry. S. Montgomery. K.

O'Connors MOG el Jr Civitan Positive Outlook By Chris Blackburn We have proved ourselves to be a club that does positive activities, stated President Eric O'Connor. This attitude could be seen throughout the entire year as the Junior Civitan participated in a va- riety of community services. One of the maior projects it was involved with was helping put on the Special Olympics in Westwood. The students helped organize the event and cheered on its participants in events such as modified track and field. The club's major fundraiser came in the form of gourmet suckers. Students found it hard to pass up these giant Iollipops. The money received from this fundraiser went to buy a van to help transport those who were physically handicapped to and from the Special Olympics. Poway High could be proud of the out- standing work that its Jr Civitan was en- gaged with in helping the community. FFAfCivilCln 131
