Club of the Month

September

North Gwinnett High School

Break Out Box

The Break Out Box event was meant to

be an introduction to Certamen, but not

a Certamen practice. It was a chance

for members to learn more about the

topics in the world’s greatest sport

while munching on pizza, as well as

a fun competitive event for

further member bonding.

Falling into the Forum Feast

Students submitting ancient Rome inspired recipes to be distributed to the school's students and faculty at a classically themed feast

Ice Cream Social

The ice cream social was an introductory event for

the NGJCL chapter to introduce the club to those

that are new and a chance for returning members

to catch up.

Meals on Wheels

The NGJCL decorated lunch bags to put donated food in

while bonding as a chapter. Approximately 80 paper bags

were donated to the nonprofit organization.
