"Good, better, best, never let it rest. 'til the best is better and the better is the best." The ladies OEGE had proudly shared this maxim since 1947, its members wearing white, pink and silver as their unifying colors. \ o~r.ct Because the club was small, members .,..':1 got a lot more face time with each other, cultivating strong bonds and support. "A lot of girls enjoy bigger clubs," sophomore activities director Jenna Sampson said, "but I like OEGE because I feel comfortable going to any one of my sisters about anything, and I know they'll be there for me to confide in." Junior Brittany Penrod agreed that there were benefits to being in a small club. "At the end of every meeting we go around and let everyone say what is on their minds and say a prayer," Penrod said. "I have always really enjoyed that." OEGE's club passage was found in Proverbs 31, and it held great importance for the club members. "Proverbs 31:30 is on the back of our athletic shirts," Sampson said. "It really sums up what our goal as a club is: to build each other up so that we become better women of faith."

Young juniors Trevor Curd and Ben Beggs spray shoving cream on the jousting stick Oct 28 during the annual Knights joust The joust this year featured costumes such os Mickey Mouse, o teddy bear and a two-person dragon. Caleb Rummel 0 CD (Q CD Being Reol and Open Despite the f.act that men's social club Knights may have been known for its annual C{hJb week joust, during which new inductees faced off with older memb~s equipped with shaving cream-covered lances, there were also som~ ~ftivities Knights did together that were not so well-known. - "[We have] a retreat every '!emesterfor just Knights guys," senior Brad Muncy said. "I love it; it's one of my favorite times. We go camp out, have a few people come and speak and take time to refocus. It's a fellowship time to grow closer with each other. It's always fun to leam something new about someone you didn't know about before." Another Knights tradition involved the men wearing creative costumes to the basketball games in order to support the players. "We have dressed up like the Grim Reaper, a chemical waste expert, Apollo Anton Ono and Speed Racer," senior Corbin Huffstutter said. Ultimately, it was their balance of fun and faith that made Knights so appealing to members. "Something that I really love is that we're so open with each other," Muncy said. "[When] coming in as a freshman, they would just come and talk and be real with me. I always loved the sense of being open." Corly Kester/Soroh Eason club profiles 2 61
