The club officials spent two long days socializing and learning from other FBLA officers and guest speakers. FBLA Developmental, leadership, and social skills all part of FBLA Many people have pen-pals who they write to for an ex- change of information or ideas. This year, the southern section of FBLA incorporated pen-pal writing among its club members. It was a way we could communicate and know what was go- ing on with other chapters, said adviser Darlene Hart. Members were given names of people in other chapters to write to. They later met at a Fresno conference. Socializing wasn ' t the only thing that went on in this club had its serious side too, such as competi- tions and weekly meet ings that members at- tended, The conference in Fresno was beneficial and rewarding be- cause people there taught you things that you could use later on in life, said co-presi- dent Kevin Haight. Some people joined FBLA because their friends did. But, there were many others, though, who joined be- t cause they were seri- ously considering busi- ness-related careers.

hist a b brai %. Fantasy and fact come together in two clubs Why is It that the person who froze time can move? Time travel, light speed, and most espe- cially ' Star Trek ' were a few of the many topics discussed by the Sci- ence Fiction club. Not only would we discuss sci-fi issues, but we also talked about books we had read or movies we ' d seen, said adviser Donna Crisci. Many members en- joyed specific points in Science Fiction, but all agreed what goes on in the future was the most interesting thing in sci- fi. I like how books or movies show what could happen in the fu- ture, said club mem- ber Chris Ebmeier. Science Club also dealt with the future. but in a different way. The officers used this year to reorganize for next year. We started the club off too late to do any- thing, said president Quoc Nguyen. Science Club was started because advis- er Gary Fick felt there were many students in- terested in science. I thought that if people were interested enough, they might want to do something about it, said Fick. Member Albert Yuen agreed with Fick. Yuen said, Science interests me and I wanted to do more things related to It. story by Christina Mock: layout by Tessie l-lernandez: photos by Allen Odermatt.
