West Covina High School has a wide variety of clubs encouraging students to get involved. The annual Club Rush took place Sept.18 and 19 at lunch to give opportunities for clubs to promote their clubs in the gym. The two day event brought out a variety of clubs with a total of 29 clubs promoting their clubs to students on campus
Clubs this year grabbed students’ attention by doing interactive activities with them. Instead of standing by their booths, this year’s clubs took the time to decorate with posters, candy, flyers, and some even had props for students to take pictures with. Engaging with the audience by handing out goodies, flyers, and even performing experiments brought more students inside the event.
Science Club is a new club on campus that decided to promote themselves by doing experiments. By doing science experiments it drew people’s attention to them since they were having fun and the loudest in the room. It instantly had people walking to their table to see what all the noise was about. Their experiments gave people an inside look on what activities the Science Club participates in.
Students tended to gravitate towards the Red Cross Club who used their mascot, a tiger, as one of their main marketing techniques. This attracted many students since they were able to take pictures with their big cardboard cut out of the tiger and tiger ears that they made.
Jillian Lam, president of Red Cross Club shared how they helped personalize the experience to students.
“A thing that helped was our flyers, we included ways to find out their blood type and test,” Lam said.
Club Rush had a big outcome this year and clubs did the maximum to get students to enjoy going from booth to booth.
