Show -NEWS- Spanish Fork B6 • WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 10, 2008 Covering what matters most MECOMING Week of activities brings SFHS students together Justin Roberts SFHS This week at Spanish Fork High School was Homecoming Week. There were a lot of amazing activities that went on. One activity was the fiesta. This was a party with music, volleyball, a blow up obstacle course — and the Spanish Fork swimming pool. For the fiesta students there was a volleyball tournament, and it turns out that the faculty won the tournament. There were four players on all the other teams, and the faculty only had two players, but they still won it all. Also, there was a Powder Puff Football game. This was a game of football where the girls got teams together and played some flag football. There were six teams that played, and the team that won was the Spicy Spanky Spaniards. They were very athletic. At this game they even switched boys and girls for the drill team. Nine boys went out and performed as the drill team, called the Lost Enchiladas. On Thursday the students participated in a movie night. They watched "Remember the Titans." It was held outside in front of the gym. The students even went to the extent of selling popcorn. People seemed to have a great time at this activity. This was part of a great •^Homecoming Week. It-was ^ well'.done with lots of hard work in planning and preparing. It seemed to fulfill its purpose by getting a good number of students out to meet new people and have fun with their friends. ACTIVITIES GALORE: There's something for everyone during homecoming week.

Some clubs offer the chance to experience new cultures. Others give students the opportunity to go on exciting trips. This year the Close-Up Club will be going to Washington, D.C. The CloseUp Club gives students a chance to get a "close-up" look at American History. What better place to learn about our.nation's history than its capital city? Other clubs like the French Club and Japanese Club will give students an opportunity to experience many aspects of their country's culture. These are only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the entire ocean of clubs offered at Spanish Fork High. Any interest students might have, in practically any area of life, whether it be art, sports, or even math — there is a club for everyone^ Courtesy photo ASPIRING ARTIST: Chris Andreasen does visual art and music.

Chris Andreasen, a senior at Spanish Fork High School, is an aspiring artist. He is currently a student in Mrs. Robert's art classes. His favorite is Painting 2. At this time the students are learning to paint with new and different mediums. Andreasen likes this new approach to painting rather than using simply water colors. Not only is Andreasen interested in visual art, but also in music artistry as well. He is a song writer as well as a musician. Andreasen plans to audition at Berkley, where he wants to major and study in song-writing and performing arts. Andreasen said, "There are no boundaries in art; art is whatever you want it to be. And that's what I like so much about it. There are no set rules." |
