For Cerealia, students gathered in the cafeteria to enjoy a festive feast featuring a variety of grains, symbolizing a bountiful harvest. Also, the Latin Club's Bake Sale raised funds to subsidize the cost to attend State Convention, and we organized a food drive to support local food banks.

Johns Creek hosted their first official service project at local Autrey Mill Nature Preserve where they cared for animals. Their 1st club meeting was their annual gladiator fight meeting where attendees crafted their own weapons from foam and duct tape and fought it out in the “arena.”

During Aequora, members taught local elementary students about Classics-related topics. One class focused on crafting amphora from clay, and another class focused on Saturnalia,
in which students made pilei out of paper. They also attended Maryland’s Saturnalia Certamen event, where they wore SNAZZY coordinated outfits :)
Latin students and parents attended a magnificent performance of Gustav Holst’s The Planets at the Detroit Symphony Orchestra. The performance was not only a musical journey but also a chance to learn more about the stories of the Roman gods, reminding students of the lasting influence of these ancient myths.
