Inspired by real events. Yesterday at school there was this thing in the cafeteria called “Club Days.” And what that was is there were tables with info on the various clubs in school you can join and representatives from each club explaining more about what their club is about. People were allowed to go to each club's table to learn more about clubs and possibly sign up for a few.

So this made me wonder; Have you ever been involved with any clubs in your school? Or are you currently involved in any clubs in your school at this moment? How active of a member are/were you ?? Did you attend every meeting or just went to few here and there? Do you/did you like these clubs?

I signed for a few clubs yesterday. It was mostly cause if you got 5 signatures on this one sheet , you got a free lunch. So I mainly did it to get a free burger and fries. XD But I did sign up for a couple. I signed up for the Christian/religious group there, the art club , what I think was their school paper/magazine and this one called The Strategic Board Games Club which is a club for games like chess, Dungeons and Dragons, Risk, etc. Games that involve strategy. I may try to be active in a few of them, but I'll likely drop them all except maybe the Christian club. I'll likely also stay in the art club since they don't actually meet but just do various activites for the school and visit the art museum and stuff. I really don't want to spend a lot of time each day just doing club meetings. I never really was involved in any club at high school cause we didn't have much and none interested me. Though I did get involved with the Theatre. It was nice, but my acting wasn't good and I left when ci realized acting wasn't something I was good at or wanted to do. We'll see if I like any of the clubs I'm in now in college.

I was part of the newspaper staff for the first two years of high school. Then I was a member of the math club during my sophomore year (omg shocker wow). I was more active on the newspaper staff because it was obviously the best thing out there. I was gonna be active in Biology, because my favorite biology teacher was the coordinator, but I was only limited to two clubs, and I chose math over biology. Derp.

For my final two years, I wasn't as involved. I had an after school job.

In college, I joined the Adventure Club. Most recently, I went down south of the Mexican Border to help deported immigrants with food, water, blankets and provide them shelter because all they have is nothing. It felt really good. The main point of the club is to travel and explore many places around the valley, like this one time I hiked around the Sonoran Desert and we reached up to the Colorado River. It was pretty sweeeeet. Then last but not least, I was also part of the Mentorship team while I attended school in San Diego. I mentored new students that had no idea what to do in class. I had to maintain a pretty good GPA to remain in that club, which I did :)

I misread this for a minute and seriously thought you said you were part of the Adventure Time Club in college and thought “Why can't I go to this school. I wish my school had an Adventure Time club. Lucky.” D: But that still sounds like a wonderful club, any club that helps out people like that is excellent and all the exploring sounds fun.

I was on Academic Team in middle school, but didn't want to deal with it in high school. I was in band, marching band and jazz b and my first three years of high school, but I wasn't in it this year because of the high new prices and the director. A bunch of my friends quit and we were all high chairs or section leaders so the music program's gone to the pits right now. I'm in National Honor Society right now and I used to be in FCA. I'm not in many clubs, and I regret it now that I look back at it.

There weren't any clubs in my middle/high schools, and the only clubs at my college are religious based ones, so no clubs for me.

My school doesn't have any clubs aside from basketball and rugby which I don't play. :(

It's really boring. They do join cross country though and I signed up last year but dropped out due to my concerns for my poor stamina and other factors, but that's not really a club.

I was so lazy with clubs throughout school. ;/ The only club I'd ever joined was the DDR club in 10th grade high school and then I never bothered in uni even after being forced to check out club booths and all that jazz. Kind of wish I'd gotten more involved but laziness prevails! :D

I was in my schools art club back in 6th grade, but didn't continue through 7th and 8th. I've never really thought of doing any clubs at school. I don't see whats so good about them. My main problem with them is that there are people there.

At my school, we don't really do much clubs.
But we've currently formed a robotics team, which I'm a part of that'll be participating in this year's FIRST Robotics challenge. I Joined because I had a love for robots so..
Its great thought! I'm helping garner support for the future of society! Cannot wait to see what my contribution to the Robotics community brings! :t094:

During my freshman year in high school, it was mandatory for students to be in a club, and as such we had monthly "club days", where all other class periods were shortened and then we had an extra period in the day devoted for clubs. During that year though, there were more clubs than ever around the school, and we had a "Computer Club", so I joined that one :p it was essentially a "watch us play around with Linux" type club, but at least it was a free period for me to have fun in an area I enjoy working with, at school nonetheless.

The mandatory clubs were wiped out though from my sophomore through senior years in high school down to an optional level. It wasn't until senior year though that I was in a club again, and that was for my school's chapter of the National Honors Society.

In high school, I was in the Honor Society club and also played tennis and was in the drama club. Now that I'm in college, there are a lot to sign up for, but someone from the Anime club invited me to join, although, I'm still contemplating if I want to join or not since the campus is huge and that is a lot of walking... -w-

I was never in any clubs. I didn't feel the need to be. I sometimes hung around the swim team since my friend Tom was on it, but I never joined it because one guy on the team made me feel uncomfortable. (This guy was a bit of a pervert.) I wanted to join my school's anime club, but most of the club consisted of weeaboos. My friend Frank was in it, but he quit because he upset the club president after he voiced his hatred of Hetalia and Death Note. (He also didn't like the fact that they watched a lot of anime with lolicon and that they made fun of him for liking really old anime - when Frank brought in a World Masterpiece Theater poster to hang up in the club room, the club president told him that it was too ugly to hang up.)
