Clubs
The largest club at DH Conley is the Conley Crazies. Each year, they design shirts which are worn at sporting events where the crazies can sit in their own section to cheer on the team. Also, this club helps to pick days for spirit week, which always celebrates crazy blue and gold day on the Friday of that week. Conley also has many honor societies including Beta Club, National Honor Society, Mu Alpha Theta, Art Honor Society, Spanish Honor Society, Science National Honor Society, National English Honor Society, and French Honor Society. Most of these clubs promote volunteering to gain points to wear cords for graduation, which takes place at Minges Coliseum at East Carolina University. The Quiz Bowl club also has had success at Conley; they appeared on television in 2005 for the state championship in which they placed second. Model United Nations is a small club which competes at East Carolina University in the Model United Nations Conference. Also, Close Up is a club which always volunteers for Special Olympics, ECU games, the Pitt County Fair, and Eastern Regionals. They take a yearly trip to Washington, DC for National Close Up Conference.

That swarm around the sleeper’s head
But are fended off with clubs and knives ...”
