Equestrian Club sponsors campouts The Equestrian Club sponsored two overnight campouts during the 1975-76 school year. Both were at Rising Sun Stables; the first was in October and the second was May 14. Students participating in the camping trips had the choice of bringing their own horses or renting horses for the night from the stables. Each trip had an average of 15 campers, most of whom chose to rent their horses from the stables. Campers brought their own sup- plies and slept in their own tents. A campfire area was available for the campouts at Rising Sun Stables. Senior John Schacht was Eques- trian Club president and Mr. Keith Carlson was the club ' s sponsor. Equestrian Club president John Schacht and club member Jill Mc- Donald preside over a meeting. eth Keeker, Mindy Chateauvert, Barb laid, Cindy Hanrahan Sally Yapp, John Rita Wildman.

Debate team has successful year Intelligence and the desire to win have placed the Roosevelt de- bate team as one of the best in the state. The 32-member team has only four seniors, so it has tremendous potential for the future. More than 100 trophies have been accumulating since the be- ginning of September. Each member has been responsible for obtaining at least one of these trophies at debate tournaments. These kids are really super; they have a tremendous desire to succeed ' commented Mrs. Donna Siers, debate coach. This is Mrs. Siers ' first year of work with the forensics team. Great enthusiasm, hard work, and fewer errors have made this year a great success for the team. By working together as a team, they have achieved many goals. ■Sly tvb ■ - - a? 3 M 2N WIGr 1 1 JiJ Front row: Debbie Nelson, Jennifer Vickery, Dave Baskerville, Anne Pax- ton, Suzanne McDaniel, Karen Mit- chell, Chris Strub, Sharon Nussbaum, Lee Ashby.

Leader ' s Club took on a new look this year by changing the con- stitution. With the addition of co-ed gym, there was no longer a neces- sity for the traditional role of help- ing in girl ' s gym classes, so now the club is devoted to supporting the girls ' athletic teams. Along with decorating the girls ' lockers, Leader ' s Club provides a pep section. During the fall semester, 26 lowlies were initiated for two weeks. The girls took a written as well as a physical test. Serving under first semester president Jeannie Young were offi- cers Cindie Book, vice president; Jan McCracken, treasurer; and Linda Blight, secretary. Some money-making projects included bake sales, dues and a car wash held May 1. Leaders helped at the Rider ' s Club breakfast and won second place in the Bicentennial Showcase Contest. Officers for the spring semester were Kay Tannatt, president; Lori Lytle, vice-president; Stephanie Stone, treasurer; and Sue Vickery, secretary. 22 Above: Lisa Milligan, Susan Hogan, and Linda Perry put the finishing touches on a customer ' s car at the Leaders Club car wash.
