Club Crash
The new school year has begun for the small-town campus, and the college clubs are buzzing with excitement. Every year, the campus throws together the Clubs Fest, a wild weekend bash where students come together to celebrate, appreciate, and learn more about the local organizations. While all sorts of games and raffles are played, no other event at Clubs Fest is more popular than the Club Crash: an exciting bout between club captains to garner interest in their respective orgs.
This year seems to have a tough match up: between the dedicated and sweet Baking club, the analytical and passionate Science club, the rowdy and carefree Role-Playing club, and the attentive and patient Gardening club. Who will come out on top with the coolest moves? Only one way to find out! Ready: Crash!
