To kick off the school year, Veg Club gave away 2 carriers of coffee with Silk brand vegan creamer at BGSU's annual Campus Fest (Sept. 3rd) and recruited 2 pages of new e-mail subscribers!
For our next event, we spread the love at Hug a Vegan Day (Sept. 22nd), giving away vegan candy and free chicken hugs. The chicken did a lot of awkward dancing. Participants responded with smiles and positivity. :)
After such a happy event, we had to take a turn for the dark side... with an eye-catching cage demonstration (September 29th). Members squeezed into a dog cage to create a visual representation of how egg-laying chickens live for 2 years, crammed with 4-9 other chickens in a space the size of a newspaper. Students responded strongly, reacting facially and verbally as they walked by, and engaging in conversations with us as well.
