HER "THESPIAN" sweater hints at Emilie Schnabel's in-
terests: performing arts. Once she graduates from high
school, however, she might study creative writing.
High School Spotlight::
Emilie studies on stage
By REBECCA WELLS
Artistic expression in various
forms is one of the areas where
Emilie Schnabel excels in school.
She has played flute in the march-
ing band all four years at Shelton
High School and has led the band
as its drum major tbr the last two
years.
"I love it! It's a lot of work but
it's really worth it," she says.
Emilie also sings in the alto
section of the high school's Cham-
ber Singers. This is er first year
performing in the elite choir.
"I finally had room in my sched-
ule this year, so I tried out,', she
explains. Emilie really likes the
choir director, Paul Nakhla, and
appreciates his passion for mu-
sic.
SHE ALSO LOVES the fact
that she can earn class credit fi)r
singing at school. "I just love sing-
ing and I'd always wanted to try
it at school but I didn't have room
because of my required classes
and I was finally able to sign up
for it," she adds.
So far the choir has performed
for Governor Christine Gregoire,
as well as at a ceremony for the
national Christmas tree. Emilie
says Gregoire invited the choir
back to sing at a Christmas party
she hosts at the governor's man-
sion in Olympia.
"That was pretty fun," Emilie
recalls. The choir also sang at A1-
derbrook Resort and Spa in Union
and at the Christmas tree light-
ing event in downtown Shelton.
This year the marching band
has done really well, placing first,
second and third in various com-
petitions, as well as earning sixth
place out of about 30 bands jn one
event. The band's color guard was
named Best Auxiliary at one com-
petition.
EMILIE'S ARTISTIC and
leadership flair doesn't stop there.
She's secretary of the French Club
at the high school and co-presi-
dent of the Drama Club. Last
month she played a part in the
play Rumors, which was staged
what happens between
Before and After?

knowing they can't
do much about me.
in the Shelton High School Audi-
torium.
"It's a lot of fun. It's a small cast
but it's been a big adventure," she
said during an interview just pri-
or to the play's opening night.
Emilie has also taken part in
the high school's annual musical
productions, and has appeared
twice in Night of Musical The-
atre. Last year she sang two solos
in the musical theatre produc-
tion. "That was pretty exciting,"
she says.
For credit toward her senior
project this year, EInilie plans to
co-direct the high school's annual
drama awards presentation this
spring.
EMILIE HAS also been on the
Mason County Forest Festival
Royalty Court, twice as Princess
of Hemlock and now as the reign-
ing Princess of Douglas Fir. She
hopes to participate in the Forest
Festival pageant again this year.
Now that she's a high-school se-
nior, she's finally eligible to try
out for Queen of the Forest.
While she is very active in per-
forming arts, Emilie doesn't ig-
nore her academics. She was in
the top 10 percent of her class in
academics as a junior and main-
tains a grade-point average of
3.67 which has earned her mem-
bership in the local chapter of Na-
tional Honor Society. She already
has earned a couple of college
credits by completing English 101
and 102 as a junior.
Next year, she might attend
George Fox University in Oregon.
She has already applied to the
school and is awaiting notifica-
tion of her acceptance.
"I really want to go to a Chris-
tian university and I've researched
a lot," she explains. George Fox
also appeals to her because it has
an attractive, vibrant campus and
will provide plenty of opportuni-
ties for her to become involved in
interesting activities.
EMILIE WORKS at the First
Baptist Church of Shelton and
volunteers along with Kimmi
Beeby as Sunday school teachers
for a third-grade class. Emilie's
parents, Richard and Virginia
Schnabel, also attend First Bap-
tist.
Though she hasn't quite made
up her mind yet, Emilie is con-
sidering a major in creative writ-
ing and literature. "I love reading
and I love literature and just be-
ing able to create characters and
express different things through
them and go anywhere you want
is just amazing," she explains.
