Member of West Van Leo’s Club - regular volunteer at some canned food packaging warehouse that looks like a futuristic slave labour combine
Will be part of my school’s first ever Reach for the Top (a local academic decathlon type thingie where I get to be seen by anyone bored enough to actually watch the Knowledge Network cable 5) team; will be only one year, but hey, my school will have only had the team for that one year

Will start and be co-president of the school’s first Chess Team (tentative, but likely - I go to a predominantly athletic school that’s trying to smarten up its “dumb jock” image, so the Prez will accept a chess team proposal)</p>
<p>Anything at a province-wide or national level? Nothing really, other than that Shad Valley thing, which is a national program. I think my band will put out a CD by admissions time (likely) or one of my stories or something will be picked up a publisher (unlikely)</p>
