What is up with the Baking Club?

Last year we had a solid group who would participate in bake sales and then whatever projects we were doing. I had the 1st meeting for this year on Tuesday. . . and 3 people showed up. Only 1 of them was a member last year. I was like WTF? I don't know if they were looking for me at the old classroom or if they just chose not to participate. At one point the members of the Hispanic Heritage Club flash-mobbed me and they all signed in saying they wanted to be members. Then they left because they had to go practice their dance routine for the pep rally. I posted a sign-up list for next week's bake sale. So far only 2 people have said that they are bringing something. I posted that I am giving it until Monday and will cancel the sale if we don't get many more contributions. I don't know what is going on. I am just hoping that they were looking for me in the wrong space.

Hopefully, there will be some more interest next week. It was certainly popular last year! Did you have any members last year that stood out as really interested in it all, or might join again? As you said, they could be looking for you in the wrong place, too.

I'm not stressing about it. I wouldn't be upset to give up Baking Club.

@NJChicaa I know it is a lot of extra work. I can understand not wanting to do it all the time, for sure.

That seems very strange. I remember her popular it was last semester.

I would imagine more people will start to show up even if you have to cancel the first bake sale.

That's rough, hopefully it's just the room mix up and not a sign of the year. The flash mob sign up thing made me laugh though, kids are wild lol. Fingers crossed more people jump in before Monday.
