Poly’s annual Club Faire was held during lunch in the quad on Wednesday, Sept. 17.
Over 60 out of 120 chartered clubs participated. Despite it heating up to over ninety degrees, clubs both old and new campaigned fiercely for the recruitment of new members. Many clubs saw a large influx of recruits for the new school year.
“It’s starting to look like our best team yet,” said Asa Mazor-Freedman, President of Model UN. “We have so many new, capable members.”
“We’re looking forward to new members and fresh ideas,” said Co-President of Muffintops, Senior Han Vi. “We have a whole lot of new plans and recipes for the coming year.”
Freshmen were strongly encouraged to sign up for club activities.
“I joined the Ball for Life club because I’ve been playing basketball for 10 or 11 years; they also deal with donating shoes,” said freshman Miles Denmion.
“In middle school, there was nothing like Club Faire. We only had one elective, but here we can be a part of the community,” said fellow freshman Becca Guiterez.
There were clubs from almost all areas of interest, from League of Legends Club to the American Red Cross. All in all, the Club Faire was a huge success for the Poly community.
Many clubs will be planning for Homecoming Faire, which will be held on October 1st this year.
It’s not too late to sign up for clubs. Contact the club president or sponsor.
“It’s nice to see the students so involved and motivated,” said My Ngoc Nguyen, the new Activities Director. “This is a great kick off for the coming school year.”
