Clubs share ideasg learn new cultures 1988 proved to be a busy year for both the Spanish and Asian Clubs through setting up booths, planning trips, and getting to know one another. Having fun, getting in- volved, and learning different cul- tures were the ideas behind the clubs, which made them very suc- cessful additions to Tokay. Increasing membership and be- coming more active were the goals the Asian Club reached. With its added numbers, the Asi- an Club accomplished activities such as selling lumpia and fortune cookies during the Christmas Ba- zaar. They also had a booth at the Stockton Civic auditorium for the Chinese New Year Festival. Raising money was not the only objective as senior Bemadette Tabaco explained. We're not just one nationality, we're a whole continent. With the Asian Club we can learn about other nationalities and cultures, she said. The Spanish Club as well was also very involved with activities such as selling tacos at the Christ- mas Bazaar, making a pinata for the foreign language party, and selling pumpkin pies for Thanksgiving. We were an active club and it helped people to get involved in school, said senior Anna Roach, who was president of the Spanish Club. The Spanish Club also helped people to learn about different cul- tures and to share their ideas, she said. lt's important to learn about Spanish other than just what's taught in the classroom. by Lea Munoz photos by Leroy Lambert '1- Q. 3 1 U., I.

Clubs toast holidays ogether Experiencing the best participa- tion in recent years, the German Club proved to be an active campus organization. lt's the consensus lot the clubl that this year has shown a greater turnout than the past few years, said Tony Young, German Club adviser. This is due partly to better activities scheduling wherein the officers were much more involved. The main club activity was the foreign language club Christmas party, organized by Mr. Young. German, French, Italian, Japanese, and Spanish clubs attended this first-time event. Each club brought a taste of its country of study, in the form of food, song, and drama. Other German Club activities in- cluded a dinner at Friedhelm's Gas- thaus and a pretzel sale. German Club officers were: Eliz- beth Mustain, presidentg Cathy Hong, vice president, Brian Man- nich, treasurer, and Matthew Bray- shaw, secretary. French Club activities included a Gummi Bear sale and participation in the foreign language club Christ- mas party. French Club officers were: Mer- edith Mann, presidentg Gregory Hansen, vice president, and Jonelle Beck, secretary. by Helen Schorr photos by Steven Chesley fi . 1-w fr Q if ' sfsf . i ff V ', 5.
