The No Balloon Club was founded by Sage Leavenworth last year as a way for Blake admissions to stop using balloons as decorations. The club decorated giant letters that spelled BLAKE and made paper flowers to replace the balloons. Blake used the letters for their admissions events and for Grandfriends Day.

During the admissions event for new students, Blake cut their Co2 emissions by 50%. They also stopped filling their balloons with helium. Sadly, there were still well over 100 balloons at the event, including giant, one-and-a-half-foot balloons.
