White, fluffy whipped cream with a bright red cherry sitting royally on top. Watering mouths sur- rounded this sight at one of the Keywanettes' lock-in's. The girls took a break from sewing school and the community to enjoy this treat before their next project. At our lock-in at the Meth- ce clubs with goo odist Church we did a lot of skits and we made a huge banana split with three gallons of ice cream, president of the Keywanettes, senior Brandi Clark said. In another service club, the Fellowship of Christian Athletes, members benefitted both spiritu- ally and emotionally. The club offered them a place to relax and study the bible in an atmosphere where the athletes could open up P rovide d time and discuss their problems. I found out how to deal with things from sharing with others, and I learned more about myself, senior julie Bangasser said. ROCK ON!

ESSCDNS DN MFE eadership demand time, effort commitment Upon entering high school, many students left behind their dreams of being a great leader, choosing instead to blend into the woodwork, leaving the pains of leadership to the more ambitious. Leading is rewarding in the end because one feels a real sense of accomplishment. However, it's really tough to get a group to- gether to do something, fresh- CLEAN DANCING. Practicing for the next big game's cheerleading ac- tivities, seniors Billy Davis and Claudine Defelice perform breathtak- ing routines to encourage school spirit at games and pep rallies. iPhoto by Bradley Wilsonl ,I man Anna Shefelbine said. While such pains of leader- ship as too much responsibilty, too much work to do, feelings that no one really cares and the ani- mosity of peers kept many out of leadership roles, others buckled down and kept their position. The worst downfall that I experienced as a leader is being stereotyped by others, sopho- more Martha Doyle said. I fi- nally realized that I couldn't con- trol their feelings and that I would only allow the feelings of those who really know me prevail. Behind the bad feelings of others and all of the hard work still stood the rewards of honors, better college prospects, and ma- turity associated with leadership. I will always feel the impact of my leadership roles in high school, FCA and NHS President jase Auby said. My charge of filling one hour of twenty people's lives each week taught me respon- sibility and the ability to function confidently before large groups of people. For those who chose to step out and grab hold of the responsi- bilities of leadership, the potential for rewards abounded, overshad- owing the headaches that came with the job. ilisi WHERE SHOULD 1 co? Flipping through brochures for prospective colleges, senior Tara Clemmons con- siders future options.
