I'm starting a club at my school... but about what? Help me out!

<p>i coudl start a club and only have 2 meetings lol</p>

<p>intel: that wouldn't be a very good club, lol.</p>

<p>gimeurstresballZ: I'm a guy. :)</p>

<p>Haha, I guess I took your post the wrong way because you didn't even know what kind of club you wanted to start. Well then, I guess you'd have to go by your own interests, then. Find something that you really love - it doesn't have to be a typical interest. Maybe you really like to cook, maybe you want to make birdhouses in your school's woodshop, maybe start an intermural sports team.</p>

<p>OH MY GOSH. MAKE AN ULTIMATE FRISBEE CLUB!!!</p>

<p>(I'm sorry, I got a bit overexcited there.)</p>

<p>But what is an ultimate frisbee club going to do? Thats just for fun. Its not helpimg anyone really, you know? My neigborhood is richh and I mean rich, so many are spoiled brats. I was thinking maybe a charity club, where we find good charities, go do fundraisers/collect money, then donate. I'm hopong the members of the club would donate too, and then 100% of the money would go to charities that we find are the best. I don't really think that would work out though... I dunno.</p>

<p>I'm starting a young-republican club! something politically based would be cool and easy to do...</p>

<p>Recycling clubs are good. We have bins in every classroom in our school and every Wednesday, a girl comes on the announcements and sayd "Teachers, please remember to leave your recycling bins in the halls today. Thank you" and then the club goes around and picks up the paper in the bins.</p>

<p>Ooh! all of these clubs sound so cool. </p>

<p>the recycling bings in every classroom is a great idea. I've always wished there were bins in classrooms or on campus where we could recycle paper because I've seen teachers and students throw away so much paper.</p>

<p>We already have recycling bins (although thats a freakin' good idea). We already have a club for a bunch of religions, politic related things, etc.</p>

<p>well do you have a club against landmines? this is relatively simple to start and a great cause. if you need more info on it, i posted about it awhile ago so you can search for it. our club raises quite a bit of money for two different organizations. maybe you should try this club.</p>

<p>current event club?</p>

<p>investment club....ooo...</p>

<p>Hmm. The last few sound interesting.</p>

<p>"most colleges like environmental stuff...so consider somethign related"</p>

<p>is there a specific reason?</p>

<p>Start a connect four club. My school's connect four club boasted like a 95% acceptance rate to 1st choice colleges.</p>

<p>what is connect four</p>

<p>habitat for humanity ... i started it last year...yeahh..you can open a campus chapter at your school</p>

<p>Model UN is really sweet. If you get enough people interested, you can even go out of town to different colleges for conferences.</p>

<p>Ive been doing MUN since 7th grade--its taught me basically everything I know about public speaking, business style writing, etc. You really get to know a wide variety of people from different schools. I totally reccomend it. If your school already has a club, join!</p>

<p>Plus, it looks good on the application too if you're thinking about that ;)</p>

<p>What's wrong with having a club that's just for fun?</p>

<p>Ultimate frisbee is amazing. Our school started a club last year. And our track team always rejoices when we get to play at practice.</p>

<p>Start a club about something you want to do! I started 2 and helped start another this year, but not because I wanted to be all "oo I can start clubs"--just because I had interests other people shared, and we had no clubs yet! (btw-I'm doing archery, which may turn into an outside of school thing due to liabilities, and arts club, and helping found spanish club.)
Basically, colleges won't care a bit about you starting a club you slearly have no interest in, even if it supposedly "looks good," like environmental as someone mentioned. Passion is key!</p>

<p>connect four is that game where you put disks into a square thing and try to make four. :)</p>

<p>I have lots of ideas for clubs I want to start, but I'm concerned about getting people interested and what to say to them when they do join. If I start one, I should be the one to organize everything and come up with what to do at meetings right, and also talk and make speeches about what our club is about, and things of that sort?</p>
