I am in this club called Best Buddies. It is a great club to get involved with. In the club you get matched up with teenagers with special needs. You hangout with them and take them places that they would not normally go/do. You also have monthly meetings that gives you information bout what is going to be the next up coming event. There are 2 events every month. Some of the different events that we did was, tie dye, pizza party, went to the zoo, Navy Pier, game night, and the block party. The block party is my favorite because all of the Best Buddies groups from different schools get together on one Saturday, and there are games and a dance floor so you could see everyone bust a move. So i hope everyone will join Best Buddies it is one of the best clubs Stevenson has to offer.
