After its initial cancellation, the college’s Club Fair finally happened Feb. 5, in the Panthers Den, encouraging students to interact with members of different clubs.

Student representatives for clubs were stationed around the room in booths they had decorated with either trinkets or posters to promote their clubs to both new and veteran students alike.

Students strolled through about, talking to representatives and other students, or just generally looking around to see if anything caught their interest.

“I went by the Bible study club, and I decided to check that out,” said Chance Davis, sophomore.

Among the various organizations, one of the clubs Ferrum offers is the equestrian club, where students have the opportunity to learn to handle horses.

“We primarily offer horseback riding lessons, and with that, you can do horse showings,” said Ashley Cutcliff, a junior. “So we practice twice a week, and we show on specific weekends.”

Another interesting club is the Art and Media Club, a recent development that combines portions of the Art Club while adding portions from the media communication major.

“Arts and Media Club, we combined it in order to bring in more of the media students, so we come together, and it’s more of a chill craft time,” said Mattie Green, senior. “We help with Empty Bowls, which is the fundraiser that helps Ferrum Elementary students.”

One of the booths was set up for Chrysalis, the literary and arts magazine at Ferrum, located alongside the Art Club.

“Chrysalis is Ferrum’s semesterly arts and literature magazine that I’ve been working on for the past year,” said Daniel Jackson, junior. “We try to take submissions from all of the students, whether it’s their writing or photography, and we put together a presentation in the magazine for them. It’s just a way to give back to the campus community.”

Another group was the Catholic Club, a club for students who are either Catholic or interested in the Catholic religion for theological purposes or just a general interest.

“You don’t have to specifically be a Catholic to join, of course; we just essentially want people to learn about the faith,” said Martin Mattison, senior. “We also have activities like learning how to make a rosary; we have studies about the history of Catholicism. The best way to sum it up is we give an experience for people who are in the faith or in a different denomination to become familiar.”

All in all, students found the event to be both informative and inviting.
