These programs were organized to help students who were interested in a home economics or a retail sales career. The juniors and seniors who participated gained valuable on-the-job training relating to their various career choices. Although working was part of every HECE stu- dent's daily routine, they found time to become in- volved in their club's activities. Each member sold candy in order to raise money so the club could at- tend the Area and State FHAfl-IERO conventions in Dallas and Ft. Worth. This money was also used for the annual employerfemployee banquet. During the year the club chose the March of Dimes as their ser- vice projects. Selling class T-shirts with each student's name printed on the shirt helped DECA raise funds for their yearly activities. These activities included a field trip to the World Trade Center and participating in the employerfemployee banquet in which the students employers were honored. With Mike St. John dressed as Santa Claus, members from HECE and DECA visited the children at Boles Home Orphanage in Quinlan during the Christmas Holidays. The two organizations carried gifts for each child and gave the children a Christmas party. HECE - DE 4 45

Small, But Active Although the Library Aides was a small group, they chose to be involved in many activities. They began with a magic puzzle sale. During the Christmas season, the group caroled at the Wylie Nursing Home and had their annual Christmas party at president, Sherry Browning's home. The spring project was the selling of canhandlers advertising the school's new slogan, AI-IMO-DILLO. March 4-6 several Aides traveled to Odessa for the an- nual TALA Convention. They enjoyed business meetings, tours, banquets and some free time to swim. For the first time the club started a scrapbook. District 7 Recording Secretary, Debra Adams stated that being secretary was an interesting and delightful experience. I would definitely encourage other students to par- ticipate in library activities and run for office. With a few more students to sing, the Choir concen- trated on public exposure. They sang in concert for all schools and participated in special programs throughout the year for community organizations such as the Kiwanis Club, Wylie City Council, and the Senior Citizens. In addition, members of the Choraliers took part in the UIL Solo Contest as well as the UIL Choral Competition and the Sandy Lake Choral Festival. Top salesman, Ken Steelman spent most of his lunch peddling the canhandlers. Library Aides Bottom Row: Donna Blackstock, Rhonda Justice, Mark Jones, Melinda Collum, Sherry Browning, Debbie Carr.
