![The Fall Food Faire, the first of two annual food faires, occurred at lunch on Nov. 18 on the senior law. Ventura High School clubs sold food items to raise funds for their respective clubs. Clubs that participated in the event organized tables from which they sold food. ASB’s student affairs committee organized the faire. ASB Student Affairs President Caylin Mobley ’23 said, “The purpose of the Food Faire is for clubs to raise money for their various expenses, as well as an opportunity for the school to come together and enjoy a fun Friday afternoon. Personally, I love the Food Faire. It’s one of my favorite events at [VHS], and the opportunity to plan it has been a blast. I love seeing everyone enjoying the food and hanging out with their friends — it creates a sense of community you can’t find anywhere else.” Photo by: Adi De Clerck](https://thecougarpress.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/1-AH-AD-Food-Faire-900x600.jpg)
![Chess Club President and founder Riley Simpson ´24 said, “We meet on Tuesdays and Thursdays during lunch in the music room. We also are starting [chess] lessons on Wednesdays after school in the ASSETS program. Just show up. We have a lot of people participating this year. It's just something new to try. [Also] this Friday, [Sept. 23], we are holding a human/life-sized chess game, with people as the pieces and people playing as the kings.” The Chess Club collected names for a raffle (left) to decide on king players for their upcoming life-sized chess game.

![On March 25 at lunch, the spring Food Faire took place. Food Faires occur once per semester, with the previous Food Faire taking place on Nov. 19. Junior Lilia Duque, who is ASB student affairs president, said, "ASB was behind the Food Faire! [The] student affairs committee is tasked with the communications between clubs and ASB, and plans Food Faire! McKale Bauerlerin, Thomas Anter and Caylin Mobley are the other members in Student Affairs committee. Food Faire is an opportunity for clubs to show what they represent through food."
