SCOOPING IT OUT: Mark Bumgardner and Mr. James Brandon prepare the VICA Ham Breakfast for the faculty. The Ham Breakfast is held each year as a project by the VICA Club. Teachers, like Mr. Robert VanBuren enjoy coming to school early for this special treat. 1X1ng By Deborah Freeman ECA, VICA and FBLA are pro- grams in which students were al- lowed to leave school early for work. These students received credit for the class and for working, in addition to being paid a salary by their employer. FBLA is a business club in which stu- dents learn skills that they may use in a future career. FBLA also provided leader- ship, and transition between school and the business world. One of the activities Mrs. Sandy Crater, the sponsor for FBLA, planned for this year was to assist in the guidance office. Members also had a Christmas party and helped the March of Dimes. When asked how she felt about FBLA, SecretaryfTreasurer, Beth Boone, stated, It's fun. I enjoy it a lot.

VICA Club is supposed to help a student grow or develop in the world of work. Members planned a cookout during first quarter. On Decem- ber 19, over 100 people of the West For- syth professional staff were treated to a S250 Country Ham Breakfast spon- sored by VICA. The members of VICA also attended the North Carolina State VICA Conference in Greensboro, in April. Mr. George Ernst, the sponsor for VICA started working with the club in 1969-70. His interest in the club started when he was told it was a part of his job. I've worked with over 1,000 students in the club over the years, he stated. DECA, sponsored by Mr. C.O. Mat- thews, is a club to help students to become future leaders in marketing and manage- ment. The club gave Mr. Matthews the chance to introduce young people to the world of work. The activities planned for the year were the standard events associat- ed with DECA, the District State Compet- itive Events. The highlight of the year was the trip to New York in February. Teng five times as many students went this year as went last year. These clubs: DECA, VICA, and FBLA all have something in common. Each club throughout the years has helped many stu- dents achieve their goals in the working world.
