Student Clubs

Club Day 22

Student clubs at Lake Tahoe Community College are a fun way to get involved in student life, meet other people with similar interests, and develop leadership and communication skills.

LTCC offers a wide range of clubs catering to many different interests. From the dedicated Honor Society to the fun and popular soccer club, there's something for everyone to experience and enjoy.

Are you an LTCC student who is interested in joining or creating a club? Please view the Club Advisor handbook in the right column for more information and answers to general club questions.

Circle K International

CKI is committed to developing leaders by offering unique service, leadership and fellowship opportunities that not only change the world but change members’ lives. CKI members are dedicated to childhood development, environmental justice, serving those who are food insecure or lack housing and mental health. So, the work of this foundation helps the Kiwanis family of programs change children’s lives—often in ways that would otherwise remain beyond the resources of clubs and districts.
