I am a founder and an executive at my school’s Magic Club. I try to perfect one to three tricks each week in order to teach them to my club members. I meet with three other executives weekly to discuss our plan for the next meeting. In addition, we planned events such as magic shows to fund raise for children in Northern Africa. We also volunteered at Children’s Birthday Miracles to perform for children from homeless shelters.

Outcomes:
-
Developed
new skills : learning magic tricks; public performance and public speech.
-
Worked with others executives when discussing and organizing activities
for each meeting.
-
Undertaken a
new challenge to perform risky magic tricks in front of large crowds
-
Increased my awareness of my own strengths and growth in public speaking
from teaching new tricks to our members, and from performing in magic shows in
front of large crowds of audience. I realized that I am a much more skilled speaker
and presenter now. Each success of our show gives me more confidence when I’m
speaking in front of a large crowd of audience, and I will continue to further enhance my public
speaking skills and presentation skills.
-
Planned
and initiated activities: being a founder of the club; planning executive
meeting times and what we will do during the meeting. I initiated the magic
show by writing a proposal to our school; I planned and participated in the
entire event from performing to selling tickets.
-
Integration
of service and creativity.
