Even with all the clubs available , Holden Bryce , senior , created a club that would be unique from all the others - the Grill Club . With the help of Mr . Naumann the idea became a popular club among seniors .
“ We were just sitting in class and talking about how much we like to grill , so we came up with the idea together ,” said Holden .
They had their first event of the school year on September 22nd , which conincided with Brother Rice ’ s Field Day .
“ As odd as it was , there was much thought and effort that had to go into that ,” says Mr . Naumann .
“ I think it ’ s a unique club at Brother Rice , a lot of the other clubs are sport or academics-driven , and
