Club Focus: Filipino Culture Club (FCC)

By Delaney Pound

Once a month in room 37, Filipino Culture Club meets to spread their traditions to all corners of Westmont. Run by the wonderful 2025–2026 board, Laura Hah, Jade Bito, Jacob Mendoza, Summer Duazo, and Miguel Bayona, students work tirelessly to plan club and board meetings each month, often bringing food or bringing fun crafts. This year, FCC performed a traditional dance, tinikling at Westmont’s second annual international night after spending many weeks practicing. Every audience member was captured by their quick movements and the rhythmic flow of the bamboo sticks hitting the stage. All of their hard work and passion shines through in all their activities, meetings, and potlucks. Be sure to follow their Instagram, @westmontfcc to be up to date with their club!
