No Club Rush?

For quite some time club rush has been a tradition. This year, however, the fate of this RHS tradition is questionable. Will there be any club rush at all?
Usually club rush is towards the beginning of September, when the school year is still fresh but not so new that people would have a hard time jumping into additional activities. This year is different. At the moment club rush is not on the calender due to the teachers aiming to get a new contract.
Club rush is an oppertunity to preview all the clubs that are going to be available in the school year. The amphitheater is filled with tables, each displaying a particular club. Students then wallk around signing up and getting information from the ones they are interested in.
I can remember club rush my freshman year, and even my sophomore year. It has always gotten my friends and I pumped up for the new school year.
Club rush encourages ALL of the students to get involved in their school in one way or another. It brings us all together.
Hopefully club rush returns.
