Club+Spotlight%3A+Yearbook

Many clubs strive to work hard and accomplish goals as a team, but one group of individuals exceeds those limitations when creating the school yearbook. The yearbook staff at Liberty North works daily to provide the students with a book filled with photos and flashbacks that will benefit them forever.

“It’s a way to preserve memories, but at the same time, it’s a real world experience,” senior Emily Vandel said.

Working together as a team may seem beneficial and fun. However, being in Yearbook means being responsible for capturing every single moment.

“We capture the entire year, and every single day of the year. It is kind of hard to be sure we cover everything and to make sure everyone is in the yearbook more than just a mugshot,” senior Jessica McCartney said.

Besides staying on top of things at North, working in Yearbook has many benefits. For instance, students involved in yearbook staff get the opportunity to make many new friends and experiences during interviews.

“I really enjoy those little things that come around with those awkward interviews and those funny, little bloops. Something interesting always happens, whether it’s in a photo or an interview,” McCartney said.

Being so involved in the yearbook makes for much commitment and hard work; however, the yearbook staff still enjoys being committed the the club.

“We bleed yearbook, we sleep yearbook, we dream about yearbook. Senior year is pretty much all about yearbook,” McCartney said.

Although this club requires lots of time management and diligence, the editors strive to be as committed as possible.

“I just like everything. I’m always talking about yearbook; this is my full time job. My friends complain that this is all I do,” Vandel said.

Being actively involved in the school, the yearbook editors work hard to manage all of them at once. Yearbook staff involves many responsibilities, however working hard and diligently can get the job done.

“We have certain deadlines we have to meet, and if we don’t meet them, then our book will not come on the day we need it. We aren’t very good at time management, but we usually get it done. Emily and I both work under very stressed conditions, but that’s whenever we work the best. It gets the stuff done and we get awards for it,” McCartney said.
