(Just a preface I will be posting this to all SA forums as I want answers from as many as possible, and I know some only really look on the forum of one SA)
Starting a club at my school is a hectic process. In order to start one, you need to send an application late school year, get approval from your school and have them send it to the district, and have the district approve your club, which is a long process which could take months. I start the application for a military club back in late April of last school year, and I am happy to say that I received full approval and became an official club as of today.
I wanted to post this here as I wanted to ask you two questions.
1. What are some things I can do with my club that SA's will favor highly?
2. What are some general recommendations you have that I can achieve with my club?
Although the questions may sound similar, the first one is asking, in the eyes of an admissions counselor, or district nominee board, what type of things that you do with the club would they value more than others and take into heavy account? (Ex. running a donation for a veteran org would probably weigh heavier than just a general meeting) For the second one, I'm merely just asking for any ideas you guys may personally have that I can do with it. The main goal is to educate others about the military, and military opportunities. However, what are some topics we can teach about, fun military related style activities we can hold, organization of the club, etc.?
Thank you for all inputs!
