Since my first day freshmen year, I joined a club known as HUGs. I soon became president of this club for majority of the school years. It was the biggest club on campus, as well as honored with holding the biggest event in our performing arts center. It was a club to help the special needs students on campus feel comfortable and happy. We put on beauty pageants for the guys, and talent shows for the boys, and a prom for them at the end of the year. One of the beauty pageants had a whopping 1200+ people show up, all of the city loved it. The mayor was one of our judges.
