They want to participate, but are confused when it comes to finding the right organiza- tion to join. SHCP tries to eliminate this problem by hosting the annual ,Xetiyity Fair. The Activity Fair showcased all c if the available co-curricular options available to the students. During the Fair, students took advantage ofthe chance to look at all ofthe clubs and get a feel for which was right for them. This was espe- cially useful for the lireshmen who were just learning what SHCP has to offer. Students came, walked around, and many signed up for multiple activities. Each club tried to conyery its strengths and uniqueness. During preparations, they showed up with colorful and decorative signs, and eye-catchingdemmmnstrations. Club leaders did everything they could to get people to join, which included promises of what was to come, demonstrations, and some- times eyen bribery. Students signed up for the clubs they found most appealing. Many people even enjoyed the time they spent during the Fair. ., . a 1 liar! fair Qfhfllli - 1-t lllt'f'f!l4g neu' pmpff fill!! pfzzfzlpfzfizgg in M.

All classes were called upon to help with the noble task of raising Sl28,000. The grand attempt to achieve this year's school goal nearly came up short, but with l000f0 participation by the student body, the school reached its target. The Walk-a-Thon itself began on a chilly morning. Students and teachers arrived at the Golden Gate Park Polo Fields to food and music Dj'd by junior Chris Amodo. As this excitement fed the students' en- thusiasm, energy filled the air, and around 9 a.m., the student body commenced the lOK Walk. Walk-a-Thon The Walk-a-Thon was not only a hike that tested one's physical capabilities, but it proved to be a journey which intensified students' friendships and camaraderie. The Walk-a-Thon was so fun because I was able to hang with friends, said Sophomore Tanya Susoev. The Walk-a-Thon is an event that the school anticipates from the start ofthe year. It offers the Fresh- men a glimpse of the spirit and solidarity of the Irish while giving Seniors a chance to reflect on their time as members of the commu- nity.
