CLUBS . veryone felt a sense of pride when the cheerleaders were announced the fifth best squad in the country, and when our chorus took superiors in competition. But no one stops to realize all the time and effort put into each plan- ned activity. The Seminole High School clubs represent a majority of the student body. These people are willing to devote their days to bringing spirit and activities to Seminole. So, from planning a yearbook to playing in the band, there is something for everyone to do if you look. The Warhawk Band, marches during half time at a home game. Tackling, senior guys enjoy a game of football during a day off. Testing, juniors cram for the eleventh grade testing. 38 Clubs
