Reporters: Chance P., Jacob B., & Sean P. Guitar Club

Guitar club is a very social club. Many people in the club like to freestyle and strum on the guitars provided. People believe it is a challenge to play well, making it a very reasonable club for a person who likes to take on challenges, or do things their own way. “It is very difficult to play, but very fun to do,” says Kristina, a member of the club. Austin, another member of the club says, “It is pretty fun.” If freestyle isn’t enough for some members, they can even ask Mr. McDaniel, the teacher who runs the club, how to play a few certain notes. He says, “One of the easiest songs to start off with is ‘Time of Your Life’ by Green Day. With the cords G, C, and D, you can play lots of songs.” So, this may be the club for you if you like socialize with friends, and learn a little bit on how to play the acoustic guitar.

Digital Design

Digital Design club is a club where you can show off digital creativity. One game that is commonly played in this club is Fantastic Contraption, in which you must you certain items to build a contraption that can do 1 or more tasks. Some also play Paint Shop Pro, where you can draw things and modify them. As I was examining the club, one of the members had modified random colors like blue, black, purple, and other colors into a picture that looked psychedelic. One other game I saw was played, which is a very popular game: Minecraft. This game is a completely virtual world made completely out of blocks and squares. You can be on a so-called creative mode, in which you have infinite blocks and can build whatever you want, whether it is a skyscraper to an underground train. Many seem to enjoy the club, so if you like to show off your digital creativity, this club will definitely suitable for you.

Electronic Gaming In Electronic Gaming club, people get to play interesting games on various old and new gaming consoles. Some of the games include Super Smash Bros, Metroid, Sonic, Need for Speed, Legend of Zelda, a skateboarding game (this one is a little bit violent), and once again, Minecraft. They also play on various old and new gaming consoles, like Xbox 360, PlayStation 2, Wii, GameCube, DS and PC’s. So, if you like to play really fun video games on different gaming systems, then I would recommend Electronic Gaming Club.

Football and Basketball

Have you ever wondered what it’s like on a football field? I have, and I have the answer for that. I watched the CCMS football club. Students played two hand tag football so no tackling is involved. So you don’t get hurt as badly. You have to be very fast and in shape to play or you could just talk with your friends.so you don’t have to play but you can if you want or just chill with your friends. They play two teams: purple and gold. They don’t play on the field at all. That’s for the actual football team. Have you ever really thought of joining a basketball club?

Well if you do, I’ve got the news for you. They have five teams playing doctor basketball: 5 games at once for every hoop. They are mostly eighth graders. But don’t feel left out; try to make some eighth grade friends.

Cake Decorating Have you ever wanted to make little tiny cute cupcakes? Well, I’ve got the news for you. It’s called cake decorating. They make all kinds of little cupcakes designs in Mrs. Hamilton’s room, like an owl cupcake and a pilgrim cupcake. They use a cupcake with no icing on it…yet. The recipe is a plain cupcake, a fudge striped cookie, a Reese’s Cup, chocolate and white icing, and orange icing. That makes a pilgrim cake.

The steps to make this delicious cupcake are

1. Take one plain cupcake 2. Put one fudge stripe cookie on top 3. Put chocolate icing on top 4. Put a little orange icing on top of the cookie 5. Then after that you put 1 small Reese’s cup on top 6. Then it’s all done and ready to eat with a dab of white icing
