he Key Club, 26 years old, South- ington I-ligh's lar- gest community service organization, has never been as large and active as it is today. The club has participated in the traditional Christmas ac- tivities of Toys for Tots, Secret Santa, and reply- ing to letters for Santa. Other projects included bloodmobiles, training sessions, and its major fundraiser, the Camival on November 15th. The profit from this camival and other income went towards a donation for the Kiwanis Pediatric Trauma Institute in Bos- ton, the New England District of Key Clubs' pro- ject for this year. The Key Club, spon- sored bythe Southington Kiwanis Club, has two advisors, Miss Aleksinas ta four year veteranl and Miss Kristchtschun Ca noviceb .

EXCITING ENTERTAINMENT During practice, members Glenn Michaud, Jim Petruzzi, and Joan Cirinewsky demon- stratejust as much enthusiasm as if they were performing for an audience. DISTAPIT THOUGHTS Relaxing after a hectic rehearsal, Ed Pel- letier is able to appreciate a quiet moment. Chorus Changes Tune his past year, Mr. Brett Bernardini has instructed the Southington High School chorus groups. They consist of mixed chorus, concert choir, and the Entertainers. Their suc- cess was best seen in the Christmas concert, Reach the Mountain. The Entertainers, which is a jazz show, ap- peared first in the pro- gram. This group includ- ed six girls and six boys who could'sing, dance, and perform dialogue. 70fStudenft Life The key to their popular- ity was that each mem- ber was willing to put in the extra time and effort needed to insure a great perfonnance. The grand linale of the Christmas concert was the song l'Who Will Save the Children, written by Mr. Bernardini. He said he saw the whole song, from beginning to end, in a dream while he was traveling with Up with People, the national singing group. lt was per- formed by all the instru- S mentalists and vocalists and touched the audi- ence like a linale has never done before. This year the concert choir had new, sharp looking uniforms - roy- al blue cummerbunds which accented their black skirts or trousers and white shirts, while the Entertainers wore modern dress, black trousers and oversized news shirts. Southington High is proud to see its music department grow and progress every year. This year's growth was with the Entertainers. The En- tertainers added a new spark to the department, All the students whgi were a part of the group shone with a special sparkle as they spoke ol their work. Being proud of their accomplish- ments, they traveled to competitions in the spring as the band has done for many years. g V V , '. LJ ' X.
