FUN-RAISERS Where The Work Ends And The Fun Begins Every organization needs time and work put into it to make it successful. But as the old saying goes, All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy! this is certainly true. The Annual Staff puts in long hard hours to produce the best book ever - but there's still time left for a little fun. Grabbing some hamburgers or going to Ms. Rounsaville's to cash in on the free ice cream days are a real treat. All of the hours and time put into the annual makes these times even more special. Organizing, talking and re- presenting the student body are just some of the things ex- pected of Student Council members. It's not easy to make students pick up trash outside when the members are kids themselves. Working with the system can have some real benefits. Having to get up and make a speech and cam- paign to get elected can be pretty scary. Other organizations which work hard but still have plenty of time for fun are SADD, BETA, FHA and FCA. All of these or- ganizations put forth the effort with loads of fun as the result. My favorite time at the BETA convention was the jamming all the way up there and all the way back, said Junior Tony Brasher. Meeting new people was also pretty fun. I've never seen so many people!” When asked what her favorite part of the BETA convention was. Sen- ior Lori Smithson replied, The dance that Saturday night was great! I met my boyfriend and we got to party. It was alot of fun! Exactly what is fun? Fun might be hanging around your friends, meeting new people, learning about how to be a leader, or just being yourself. Senior Amy Parks adds, Hav- ing fun is being yourself. If someone doesn't like you when you're you, that's their problem. No matter which or how many organizations you join, there is work and fun - they go hand in hand. Annual Staffers Jayson West, Lana Glass- cock, Diane lake and Sponsor Ms Dortha Rounsaville consult with Principal Gary Bo- hannon on their next move on mug day Hip, Hip, Hooray!! says Senior Amy Park upon arriving home from the Beta Con- vention where no sleep and too much pizza took its toll.
