Clubs - member initiated activities and meetings which are often open to public participation - have never been codified in the bylaws or votes. They arise from the [[Membership_agreement#Guests|Membership Agreement]] which specifically permits members to invite visitors to the space as long as they are supervised, and the foundational concept of [[Just_Fucking_Do_It|JFDI]]. The oldest documented continuing group activity that could be called a club was [https://pumpingstationone.org/about/| Power Wheels Racing Series in 2009], only a year after Pumping Station: One was officially founded, and is now known as [[Power Racing Team|Power Racing Series]]. It has since formed its own non-profit, but continues to use Pumping Station: One for storage and meetings. [[NERP|NERP or Not Exclusively Raspberry Pi]] also has a long history, hosted by Ed Bennet since 2012. Both of these groups have increased the profile of Pumping Station: One and been of great benefit to the membership. | Clubs - member initiated activities and meetings which are often open to public participation, also known as [[:Category:Interest_Groups | Interest Groups]] - have never been codified in the bylaws or votes.
