In January of this year, a new open to all club was created here at Grand Island Senior High School. Mrs.Boyer, the sponsor of this crochet club says, ‘’The reason why I became the sponsor is because a group of kids that asked me to do it were very energetic and excited about the possibility of a crochet club, and so seeing their excitement motivated me to want to help them out in trying to create a club that they could be a part of at GISH.’’
