Description
The Champlayers are a completely student-run theater club that produces a show each semester. We are an audition-based club, but we also have positions in tech and encourage students to join our discord to keep informed about what opportunities we have open! We meet twice a week until tech week and hold auditions early in the semester. We do not perform musicals.

We work on many fun and unique projects during the year and experiment with different dance styles. At the end of the year, there is an opportunity to perform at the annual Champlain College Dance Team (CCDT) Showcase, with original choreography from our members. We strive to have a positive and safe environment for everyone to be in their bodies comfortably while dancing.

Greetings Loyal Imperial Citizen and welcome to the Champlain Wargaming Club! Our club is dedicated to all things tabletop wargaming, with a heavy focus on Warhammer 40,000 and Warhammer: Age of Sigmar. Crusades, painting nights, campaigns, skirmishes, and strategy theorycrafting are just a handful of the things we offer. Don’t have an army? Don’t know how to play? We have you covered! Learning the games with starter armies will help to ease you into wargaming. Will you join the loyal forces of the God-Emperor? Fight against them within the traitorous armies of Chaos? Or will you duke it out with both as one of the many extraterrestrial Xenos in the galaxy? Find out at Champlain Wargaming!

Willard & Maple is the oldest running student publication on campus. Champlain’s student-run literary magazine, publishes annual issues that feature visual art, poetry, short fiction, and nonfiction each year. Its mission is to broadcast the diverse and powerful voices in the Champlain community out to the world.
Willard & Maple accepts submissions from the Champlain community. Guidelines for submissions are on its website, as is a link to W&M’s Submittable page. Willard & Maple staff engage in a democratic voting process to determine acceptances.
The Willard & Maple office is not a traditional college-magazine workplace. Students completely take charge of the editorial process, and the review board for submissions is entirely composed of young writers. Nobody’s here to pour coffee and punch copy.
