"Shantih is a widely varied group ofgirls linked together by a common love for God and each other." - Amy Smoak A midst a sea of club jerseys each Friday, bright orange and white unmistakably identified the women of Shantih social club. One hundred six members strong, the club experienced a year of success and progress. They participated in all club sports, and although claiming only the B-team softball championship, Shantih perhaps won an even higher award when they were honored in the spring for the second year in a row with the Sportsmanship Award among women's social clubs. From the field to social activities, Shantih found almost any excuse to get together and have some fun. Spring began with the annual "Orange Crush" party, where guys outnumbered the girls three to one. To change pace a bit, they settled down to an all-night Shantihonly St. Patrick's Day party, followed shortly thereafter by a spring banquet. Shantih also joined several other clubs to bring to life the 1989 Spring Sing sweepstakes winner , "An Easter Eggstravaganza." Fall kept members just as busy. An afternoon outing at Riverside Park allowed the girls to catch up on summer events and plan ahead for that semester. Parties included Shantih's second annual Barn Bash, a skating party with Knights, and a Christmas party . complete with a visit from "Shantih Claus." Two major projects marking the maturing of the club included the creation of a new ballfield sign and the revision of the original club constitution. Shantih realized that one of the main reasons for the existence of social clubs was service. Shantih's service to others became fulltime involvement with the Searcy Migrant HeadStart Center. Members participated in volunteer work, fundraising and parties for the children and staff, among other activities. Shantih's unity was best described by fall president Amy Smoak: "Shantih is a widely varied group of girls linked together by a common love for God and each other." - Monica Bagley Front row: Bernadette Mayberry, Diana Gregg, Kristi Cothren, Ann Love Gill, Danielle Patton, Tammy Barkman, Kim Beach, Donna Taylor, Aimee Winings, Amy Smoak, Emily Gibson, Anissa Campbell , Melissa Russell, Jennifer Beverly, Laura Tucker, Christine MacDonald, Monica Bagley, Betsy Yurcho, Jan Bonds, Sheri Wells; Second row: Angela Smith, Lanie Butler, Tamara Toland, Sharon Bowles, Ashlie Blansett, Jennifer Noland, Tracy Shipman, Camille Krenz, Shannon Black, Contessa Cockrell, Aven Collins, Shari Ann DeLoach, Carol Riddle, Michele Roder, Debbie Bitting, Shannon Roggendorf; Third row: Donann Cummings, Terri Phillips, Leigh Anne Lutrell, Rexann Chambers, Charlene Cvelbar, Cindi Schultz, Jud y Nogueira, Karissa Boyd, Lisa Dockery, Marisa Hayes, Carrie Butler, Nichole Mantel, Gena Wishard, Lisa Cowan, Amy Johnson, Diane Peeples, Jackie Mendez, Lorie Hughes; Fourth row: Susanna Jenkins, Stella Rios, Sharon Walker, Shawn Walker, Wendy Pierce, Karen McCoy, Dee Ann Harsch, Leslie Alls, Karen Wright, Donna Davis, Cynthia Harper, Alice Gray, Lori Branch, Tamara White, Stephanie Swiger, Tany Perez, Twila Blair; Back row: Travis Rogers, Dana Campbell, Dianne Romer, Carla De Bennardo, Sharon Daniel, DeSonya Seigriest, Wendy Blades, Cheryl Garner, Becky Jones, Brian Mashburn, Ramona Reaves, Shannon Weldon, Jenny Judd, Allisha Alderson, Michelle Alderson, Sandi Jones, Karla Olree, Lisa Ritchie. - Photo by Sharon Bowles.
