Clubs Participate With Pride Competition was a big part of the Future Farmers of America (FFA). Throughout the year these students competed with other county schools in areas such as public speaking, leader- ship, and general talent, all of which are based on agricultural knowledge. FFA is open to any student enrolled in a vocational agriculture class, and this club helps these students prepare for different careers associated with agriculture. Besides just learning about ag- riculture and applying that knowledge, the FFA members participated in other activities as well. They had their own basket- ball team and were also involved in an FFA basketball tourna- ment. The Multi-Cultural Club was revived and once again open to all students interested in learning about their personal heritage backgrounds. The purpose of the club is to increase individual self-esteem towards oneself and others, as well as to understand different cultures. The club orga- nized a trip to a black history museum and got together a choir to sing at the black history program. I feel that this organization is going to be a big success, and we, in the Multi-Cultural Club, will be better than before, said Mrs. Constance Green, sponsor of the club. At its largest ever, the Ushers Club worked at several events during the past year. All of the school programs, such as plays, concerts, and graduation, were accompanied by the Ushers Club. The members collected money, passed out programs, helped keep the audiences qui- et, and whatever else was asked of them to add to the success of the different school functions. As a group fighting against many of the student population, the members of SADD had their work cut out for them. Their big- gest goal each year is to encour- age more people not to drink and drive, or just not drink at all. The most active times of SADD ' s campaign was during the holiday season and prom time. During Christmas and New Year, red ribbons and stickers were distributed to the students, in hopes of persuading them to join SADD ' s cause. As couples were preparing for the prom, the members of SADD were sending rental shops pamphlets to hand out to all students and contacting res- taurants, asking them to serve teenagers one free non-alcholic drink with their dinner. m The 1988-1989 Multi-Cultural Club - Front Row: Karen Page, Darneshia Clark, Stacey Carothers, Michelle Davis, Tshombe Brown, Tonya Spears, Denise Anderson.

Journalists At Work Many hours of dedication were given each day to bring to the students a school newspaper and a yearbook. Sometimes it even required staying after school for a couple of hours. The Memory Lane and Hatchet staffs came to find the true meaning of cram in order to meet their deadlines. The two staffs are very much alike. They both have deadlines to meet. When it comes to writ- As a promotional effort to sell subscrip- tions, Candace O ' Hara, a Hatchet staff member, helped decorate the English room doors. ing articles such as these, they both have to be fair, accurate, and use only the facts, said Mrs. Diane Richardson, the advi- sor of the two staffs. Besides holding the first school dance of the year, the combined staffs held the largest and most enthusiastic drive to sell yearbooks in years. In the effort, every English room was decorated to remind the stu- dents of the sale. Name stamp- ing was even offered to the en- tire school for the first time. The success of this year ' s newspaper came from the ideas of students who attended sum- mer camp at Franklin College, and the yearbook staff who at- tended Indiana University ' s camp for the new looks that were added to this year ' s book. As Courtney Vanslager put it, It ' s hard, but it ' s worth it. The best comes to those who wait. .le 1988-89 Memory Lane Staff - Front Row: Darneshia Clark, Tracy Lan- duit, Tami Yarbrough, Andrea Kaser, Stacie Burkholder, George Brenner; Middle Row: Kris Howe, Maria Stancati, Derek Vanslager, Doug Brenner, Rachel Ebel, Rob Quaco, Mike Zielinski; Back Row: Kellie Howe, Denise VanWyns- berghe, Kristin Chlebowski, Amy Shaw.
