For my first student life activity, I attended a Latino heritage club meeting on Thursday, September 7th, from 6-8 pm.
My first impression of the Latino club was very good, from the livelihood exhibited by everyone there to the massive room, I was definitely not expecting the club to be so much fun. The room was filled with about 50-60 people from many different ethnic backgrounds, and everyone was very social, funny, and friendly. The atmosphere of the club was extremely lively and enthusiastic, everyone was socializing.
At the club meeting, I watched as different groups of people like, CGC and Wise, competed at family feud. The game was hilarious and included topics like what food do you eat with your hands and what are your parents most likely to use to hit you with. Along with the incredible energy exhibited by the competing groups, the entire audience was also very involved. People in the audience could be heard screaming answers at the competing groups from down the hall.
After about three rounds of this game, we had an intermission during which we ate pizza provided to us by the club. After that short break, there was a final elimination round, between the two losing teams from before. This also exhibited the same lively upbeat energy as the previous rounds.
Overall, I would say that this club was a lot of fun and a great way to spend a Thursday night. I had an incredible time and am really glad that I attended this club and got to experience it. I for sure plan on going to more of the Latino Heritage club meetings, and hopefully next time I’ll be in one of the competing groups for Family Feud.
