Lots of people think being on the Homeschool Yearbook Staff is a boring and useless waste of time. That's where they are wrong! You'll use the skills you gain creating the yearbook for the rest of your life!
For example, let's say after creating the yearbook you gain the ability to recognize any homeschooler from the Southeast Tennessee area. So, you ask, what good is this ability unless you want to walk up to people who don't know you and ask them whether they're still into gymnastics while referring to them by their first name?
Well, first, use your imagination and imagine you are driving with your family to Lake Winnie. Your younger brother brings along his GPS to help you find Lake Winnie. The GPS tells you to drive for a quarter mile up someone's driveway and then turn left. Now what? If you hadn't been on the yearbook staff the year before, you might as well give up and go home since you'll be going in circles for the rest of your life. But! If you have participated on the yearbook staff, you'll be able to randomly shout "HEY LOOK! IT'S THE CRAIG FAMILY! THEY MUST BE GOING TO LAKE WINNIE TOO! FOLLOW THEM! DON'T LOSE THAT CAR!" even though you have never met, talked to, or even seen the Craig family outside of pictures they send in to the yearbook. And then TA~DA! You will magically find Lake Winnie. Incredible.

Yeah. Being able to identify random people. That's so useful outside of finding Lake Winnie. Wait! Haven't you been to Lake Winnie before? How did you get lost, especially with the GPS?
