Spanish Club The Rockbridge High Spanish Club activity soared after its second year of reorganization. The club, “Los Toros,” named Patti MacGregor President, Patricia Layton Vice President, and Miche lle Carter, Secretary-Treasurer. Los Toros immediately began planning the activities they would have during the 1980-1981 year. The first activity was a sock-hop early in the year to raise money for a Spanish meal. The sock-hop was complete with Spanish tickets and fellowship. Two fine young disc jockies, Scott and Mike, made their break-through into the “big time”. In October, Los Toros held a Spanish Dinner after school for members and special guests. The menu was complete with “Paella valenciana” (chicken, spices and rice), salad, homemade bread, and flan for dessert. Flan is a Spanish pastry. An added extra was the non-alcoholic wine, which provided the diners with that “Spanish feeling”. In spite of all their activities, one major dream still remains in the hearts of all Los Toros — a trip to Mexico! Perhaps through hard work and many hours, future members of the club may realize that dream. | 4} lst — Patricia Layton, Patti MacGregor, Shelley Carter 2nd Row — Donna Pultz, Carole King, Tammy Camper, Martha Moore, Linda Biggs, Amy Snider 3rd Row — John Maass, Ed Maass, Jeff Lawhorne, Mike Bowen, David Pultz, Jossie Hayslett, Missy Fulwider, Alice Cline, Randy Chittum, Mrs. Sandy

Model U.N. The Model UN kicked off a hectic year in October, attending a workshop at Stuarts Draft High School. They returned to the school two weeks later for a meet with several area high schools. Tommy Lackey and Jennie Cornish won third best delegation and Torsten Toms won second best delegate. The second meet was at JMU, where they competed against schools from Virginia and North Carolina. The U.S. delegation, composed of Tommy Lackey, Jennie Cornish and Linds Biggs captured the award for second best delegation Then came the very first Model U.N. meet ever held at Rockbridge. Tracy Henderson from VMI presided and members of the Model U.N. assisted as pages. The event was preceded the night before by a small party in the cafeteria held to welcome the delegations to the school. The annual meet at VMI was next. Torsten Toms won the Best Delegate award, while Tommy Lackey, Jennie Cornish and Linda Biggs captured the second place delegation award. As soon as that meet was over, the club left for an overnight trip to Statesville, NC, to participate in the North Iredale M odel U.N. meet. In competition with schools from Virginia, North Carolina and South Carolina, Tommy Lackey, Jennie Cornish and Linda Biggs won the award for best delegation. A lot of pride is to be found in the accomplishments of the Model U.N. of 1980-1981, and a lot of hope is seen for the coming year.
