BC holds official
Activities Fair
By Brady Andrews
staff writer
Last Thursday, the official BC Activities Fair
was held outside of Myer’s Dining Hall. Tables
were gathered in the shade of the BC blue tent.
Club leaders talked to interested students about
their clubs and worked hard to persuade them to
put their email on their sign up lists.
Clubs are a low-risk, low-commitment way to
get to experience, meet people, learn new things,
and get more involved with the community.
For many students, clubs are also a great way
to fulfill volunteer hours for their Leadership
Scholarship awards.
Many different clubs were represented includ
ing Philosophy Club, BC Serves and various
outdoor clubs. Community organizers were
also in attendance promoting various ways to
get involved in community activities beyond
the college.
Those interested in the outdoors have a few
clubs from which to choose: the Brevard Col
lege Outing Club does a little bit of everything:
rafting, caving, hiking, fly fishing, star gazing,
skiing, climbing and hiking. No experience is
needed to join and it’s a great way to try anything
for the first time.
There is also the Paddling Club, which takes
students out kayaking, canoeing, rafting and
stand up paddle boarding.
The Climbing Club allows students to join a
group that enjoys getting out in the gym or on
the rocks to develop technique and strength.
The Brevard Business Club is all about prepar
ing students for the business world. It’s open to
people of all studies. The club aims to help you
grow in skills that are necessary for the world
outside of college. Members work on developing
resumes, online professional profiles and they
get a professional photo taken.
The Philosophy Club might also peak the
interest of those looking for more interesting
thought and conversations.
BC Serves is a club that offers students the
opportunity to gain volunteer hours. It gives its
members several opportunities to serve the com
munity in various ways. Events include Mini
Move-A-Mountain day. Hunger and Homeless
ness Awareness week, alternative spring and
fall break trips, MLK Challenge, Love your
Neighbor month and more.
Campus Activities Board is also a great way
to serve right on the college campus. CAB is
responsible for putting on events around campus
such as the bi-weekly Open Mic Nights and the
upcoming Brevard’s Got Talent show.
The Diversity Pride Club is also a great way
to show support for the LGBT community and
get involved in various events such as Asheville
Pride.
There’s a lot happening on and off campus.
Find a BC club and contact Campus Life for
more information if you want to sign up.
