Gettmg In vol ved In A Legend Though the days drag by, a small glimmer of hope remains alight in the students' minds. Hoping for a break in the mono- tony, the relief is tremen- dous when everyone real- izes that it's finally time for clubs. On the first and third Wednesdays of each month, forty-five minutes are set aside during the regularly scheduled first period for the purpose of club meetings. Many of the clubs are not only beneficial to the students, but also provide services to the school. By provid- ing special activities and guest speakers, some clubs give students in- sight into possible ca- reers, whereas others spend their time in pro- jects designed to improve the school, such as volun- teer clean-up commit- tees. Though we only have clubs twice a month, as opposed to other schools in the area who have them weekly, the students re- ceive maximum benefits from their experiences. Mrs. Hayes' Medical Health Club stu- dents are given a chance to ask ques- tions about public safety and emergen- cy procedures and how it affects them.

Hands Aren 't For Writing Only Dexterity is becoming increasingly im- portant in our society, and many clubs offer training and experience in this area. The Mathematical and Computerized Games Club members are interested in mathematical problems, and how they are being solved by computers, slide rules, and logarithims. The members also enjoy many games that require a great deal of concentration and skill, such as the Ru- bik's Cube, and electronic football and bas- ketball games. During the club period, the members try to solve certain formulas and problems in order to master each game. Another club which involves concentra- tion is the Chemistry Club. Under the lead- ership of Mrs. Rosalyn Barton, the mem- bers of this club take on large tasks. Dur- ing the club period, these students perform 'fl' i Q.. many experiments such as distilling water, and bending glass to use in the lab. The Industrial Arts Club makes many useful items during the activity period. The mem- bers design and create their own home and personal items. Not only is skill used in concentrating and solving problems, but it is used in working with the hands. One of the main clubs which requires manual dexterity is the Cross Stitch Club. With Mrs. Sandra Cantwell as an advisor, the club cross-stitches pillows and Christ- mas tree ornaments. Their major project, decorating the office Christmas tree, was a success. Another club which needs nimble fin- gers is the Guitar-Folk Music Club. Stu- dents in this club appreciate the vast range ME :WJ of music that is produced by using the guitar. These students practice and share helpful hints ranging from heavy-metal in- struments to simple accompaniment chords. They also invite guests to perform for them. The group assembled a band to perform at the Special Olympics at LISC- Aiken in April. The Record Club shares similar interests to those of the Guitar Club because they both enjoy music. The Record Club is ad- vised by Mrs. Stephanie Simmons. The members are allowed to each bring their own records and share the newest dance steps with the other members. These clubs contribute to the students' creativity and manual dexterity which is important to our society, that puts so much emphasis on academics. Roy Roberts perfects his skills in wood turning using the lathe in wood shop. William Collins and Tony Black look on as Jimmy Thacker takes his turn on a computerized pool game. Mrs. Barton gives David Boyd, Wade Morris and Joel Jones tips on the procedures for distilling water. clubs! 149
