Buffet Club offers a wide variety of food and an opportunity to meet new friends. The group is led by Mr. Kevin Wittman, and it meets once a month.

During the Buffet Club meetings, club members travel to local restaurants where they eat until their stomachs can not take any more food.

“Buffet Club is a great opportunity to go out with friends and eat great food until it hurts. I like how we go to a lot of different restaurants,” said Sam Bouajram, 10.

“The atmosphere is fun and laid back, and its really a fun and exciting experience,” said Bourjram.

Buffet Club is a very social experience, where people can talk and converse while enjoying delicious meals.

“It was pretty fun, we meet some upperclassmen,” said Max Gottliebson, 10.

If interested in being a part of the 2013-2014 Buffet Club, there will be the meeting on Oct. 10.

Ben Ruskin, Executive Editor-in-Chief

Hi! My name is Ben Ruskin and I’m a senior here at Sycamore High School. This is my fourth year on the staff. As a part of The Leaf, our national award-winning, student-run publication, I hold the position of Co-Executive Editor-in-Chief. My position includes overseeing the production of all four of our platforms: print newsmagazine, online magazine, website, and broadcast department. I enjoy writing under multiple genres and thus have written a multitude of articles including feature, opinion, news, and arts & entertainment. I also take great pride in designing pages (Adobe InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator) and editing/shooting videos (Windows Movie Maker and iMovie). I look forward to another great year with the hard-working staff of The Leaf. More about myself: I find volunteering to be extremely rewarding: I work as a volunteer teacher’s assistant at my temple during religious school every Sunday. I am also involved in BBYO, a Jewish youth group outside of school, I have worked as a board member of my chapter for several terms. I am also involved in OGB-GO, a club I founded here at Sycamore High School. The club helps families in Sycamore are who need some sort of assistance financially. I am also involved in National Honors Society and Unified For Uganda as an avid member and volunteer. In addition to volunteering and extra-curricular, I really enjoy movies and television. My favorite TV shows are “Scrubs” and “The Walking Dead.” My favorite movies are “Good Will Hunting” and “Interstellar” I hope to eventually work in the realm of entertainment.
