Taking Time For Others A branch of the local Kiwanis Club, Key Club ' s main objective was to serve — to help people. It planned a number of activities through the year, most of them out- side the school, and all of them meeting their objective to be of ser- vice. Tracey Viggers and Ralph Schor- bach each said they joined the club because they liked what it was do- ing. Total service can be boring, though, and all the members agreed that Key Club was also fun to be in. As Tracey said, We have good times. Key Club: Tina Stanley, Tracie Kistler, Ralph Schor- bach, Joanne Geesink. Christian Fellowship Club was privileged to have many varied guest speakers. The Thespians ' Spook-o-Gram sale was a great success. Becky Baker buys one from Deneen Adams and Angie Watkins. 28 Clubs

On The Go The International Club ' s pur- pose was to help people learn about other countries and cultures by see- ing them first-hand. They planned two main trips for the year: one three-day trip to Mexico and one five-day trip to Canada. We have a lot of fun going places, said Eric Thomas. Good Time The Art Club ' s purpose was to make its members and others aware of the diversity of art around them through trips to various art museums, historically interesting places, and other artful attractions. The club ' s activities included trips to the Los Angeles County Muse- um of Art, the Huntington Library, and the Art Center College of De- sign. Most of the club ' s activity was outside the school, but it made its presence known on campus through murals on the gym and front walls. The club also liked to pamper itself, designing its own T- shirts and having them silk- screened for all to see. This was one club that didn ' t do much fundraising — it only had one sale, of ceramics. International Club, Front: Sonya Gore, Eric Thomas, Tonette Gore.

VICA Does It Industrially VICA, Vocational Industrial Clubs of America, was one of a few national organizations on campus, but there was a difference: VICA was a club of achievement. It was an organization in which students could further and test their skills in their chosen fields. These interests included electronics, auto mechan- ics, drafting, woodworking, and other vocational and industrial classes on campus. VICA members participated in statewide competitions against oth- er members where they could see what others in their fields were do- ing and what job competition might be like. San Dimas members also kept themselves busy with such things as candy sales and a swap meet to raise money for their travels.

Showtime! The Thespians Club is a nation- al society dedicated to the better- ment of theater at the high school level, said Dennis King, its advi- sor. Members said they joined so they ' d be known throughout the acting world as a Thespians mem- ber. This was a reasonable hope, as many of them wanted to go into a career in drama. To join the club students had to earn at least ten points by partici- pating in the school ' s drama pro- gram (acting in or attending plays, help in fundraisers, etc.), and have a GPA of at least 2.5 (a C + ).

Most of its members joined for the same reason: to learn about God. As Dan Helvey said, Some- day the world ' s going to end, and I want to know where I ' m going. As for all the clubs on campus, though, this one ' s biggest draw was the fellowship. Its members knew they were among people with the same beliefs, people who knew how they felt. They met every Monday and Thursday, and also sponsored activities like the Santa- Gram sale and bringing guest speakers to the school. Formerly advised by Mr. Goetz, the club was taken over by Mrs. Stabio. She felt that the club was a very important part of the school, needed to provide students an op- portunity for spiritual growth and fellowship with other Christians. Clubs 29
