Essentially a WP:ONEEVENT group that got e-mail-bombed and featured in various News of the Weird segments last heard from in a puff-piece by ABC News in early 2009. Per WP:NOT#NEWS, I submit that this organization fails our notability test of WP:ORG since we are tasked by that guideline to consider the "organization’s longevity, size of membership, or major achievements, or other factors specific to the organization...." I submit that considering these factors makes it very dubious that this parochial organization is notable enough for this encyclopedia. Past AfDs were probably blindsided by the recentism of the news-coverage. Current consensus on the talk page of the article seems to indicate that the article should be deleted.

- DeleteI have to agree. There seems little or no coverage beyond the "and finaly" style. The two schools do n ot seem to have consoderd this noteworthy (and one has a schools club page which does not feature this club, which indicates to me that it was ini no way an 'offical' school club). There is no independant varification of most of this clubs claims. It would also appear to have now disapeared being essentiualy a one of shot at fame.Slatersteven (talk) 14:33, 20 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - Agree with the nom. It's not even a 15 minutes of fame sort of piece. This is slow news day material. Shadowjams (talk) 06:15, 25 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Agree with above. Taylor Karras (talk) 16:52, 25 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
