Q&A for How to Start a Club

I would just check with an administrator at your school to find out what you need to do. For example, many schools require that new clubs have a teacher or staff member to oversee them, as well as a collection of signatures of students who would be interested in joining.

Whatever is related to the subject, but you could also talk about activities you might be hosting in the future or dates of future meetings.

Find a place you all go to, like a school or park, and if that doesn't work, you could possibly use someone's bedroom or other room in his/her house.

Make colourful flyers to stick on windscreens, desks, doors or letterboxes to advertise an open night where people can come and try out your club.

You don't need a specific amount of kids to create a successful club. However, you should have at least one person for each job needed in your club.

Music, photography, and other arts topics are good subjects. Or, just find out what you and your friends like and start a club around that. For example, you could form an Anime-lover's club if you are interested in Anime.

The president will then have to select new guys to fill these spots, or "recruit" new members willing to take on the roles. Don't worry too much, there are usually people who seek roles they think allow them to wield some sort of power.

Definitely, if you are on an executive committee you should always attend meetings unless there is an emergency. If you cannot be there, always read the notes of the meeting later and be sure to follow up on anything you need to know more about.

Yes, as long as the person can handle the responsibility. But if the leader of the group doesn't feel comfortable with it, he or she may tell the officer to resign.

First, think of your hobbies. What do you like to do? Then you should be able to think how to form it into a club. For example, if you like art, then make an art club.

These are many options for making money for your club. You can have a bake sale, car wash, or a raffle.

It depends on if you have to buy things for every club meet, if so split it evenly amongst the members. If not, do not ask them to pay.

It's not completely necessary, but if you wanted to make a club card or something like that, it would be good to have a symbol to put on it.

Be confident! You never know who might enjoy the same things as you. Make lots of posters and tell all of your friends about your club so they can encourage others to join as well. Even if no one joins, you can still have fun by yourself.

You could buy them, or you could borrow them from friends.

Tell your close friends and see if they want to join. The word will spread if there are girls doing make-up as a club. Second, spread the word on your social media account. If you don't have any social media, ask your friends or family to help. Ask members to bring their own makeup for their own use, as makeup shouldn't be shared. Then set up tutorials (you can also use YouTube ones), to have demonstrations of different makeup styles at each club meet-up.

You can have 'build a character' sessions where you make your own original characters to add to the FNAF universe, with their own backstories and such, and put them through simulations. Another idea might be to imagine FNAF characters in a different context, like an alternate universe.

Here are a couple of potential rules to get you thinking: Members cannot miss more than _____ meetings. Presidents and Vice Presidents must not use their power in wrong ways (force someone to do something, be unilateral in their decisions, etc.). Just think of the what should and should not be allowed in the club.

As long as you keep in touch with each other, sure. You can send out newsletters through email and give each other updates on social media.

Yes, either of these would work well. I'd suggest you do the show. This will get the members of your club more engaged and might even attract new members, in addition to raising funds.

Of course! Fan clubs have been around forever, this is a great way to bond with your friends over something you all enjoy.

It depends on the club. If you don't want to have people in those positions that's fine, it just helps because it keeps the club operations more organized and on task.

Of course. You only really need a fundraiser if you need money for supplies or if your club wants to do something for charity, etc.

If you need legally binding contracts or other paperwork, you will need to consult a lawyer and/or a notary public.

You could do it at the other members' houses, or you could ask a teacher if you could use their classroom at lunch.

If you are starting a club in your neighborhood, you could have a yard sale, a lemonade sale, a bake sale, a car wash, sell candy, shovel snow, or rake your neighbor's leaves. If you are starting a club in your school, you can have a bake sale, sell candy, maybe start a school mural, go on a field trip, or have a protest if your club is raising awareness about something.

Members should be included, a journal or a binder for taking notes, a pen or pencil, games, activities, snacks, beverages, and a plan.

You could have a can drive to collect food for local homeless shelters, or you can raise awareness by talking to people about the issues that are important to you.

No, there is no maximum limit to how much money you can have in a club's bank account.

Yes, you can make a club based around anything you and your friends are passionate about. Once you establish the club, spread the word to gain more members by hanging up posters in the high way and creating a club Instagram page.
