As Thursday’s club hours approached, I kept searching for something that would truly be of interest to me. With Baruch’s pause on Greek life, I looked for a club that would offer some sort of excitement. Late Wednesday night, I saw a post for the Absolute Adrenaline club in the Baruch 2021 Facebook group, and decided that this might be worth my time. I scrolled through their Facebook page, and saw countless photos of students going rock climbing, paintballing, snowboarding, and more. I knew that I had to go check out this club and see what they were all about.

On Thursday afternoon, me and a group of classmates went to their General Interest Meeting. There we met the president of the club, George, and we learned about the specifics of the club. We talked about how one of the very first events the club had was indoor laser tag, and how the new leaders wanted to revive that. We talked about the different trips and events they have scheduled, and how even during midterms and finals, club members are trying to relieve their stress by being active. One of the things that stood out to me was how closely knit the group was. The members not only participated in club events together, but they created their own plans during their free time. George was telling us how their snowboarding trip stemmed from a few members telling each other that they wanted to go snowboarding upstate and then through word of mouth, a whole group of people came. It is very important to me to make friends that are interested in similar things and I would love to meet new people who constantly want to go on new adventures and experience new things. I look forward to going to one of their club events and I hope that it will be a lot of fun.
