Clay is involved in activities in addition to journalism. She has been a drum major for the Atlantic Trojan Guard since the beginning of her junior year. “Sometimes there are difficult situations you have to deal with, but at the end of the day, it's about the band, not about you.”
During symphonic band, Clay plays first part saxophone. She has also been in the musical pit sophomore through senior years and is teaching herself to play the guitar. At the moment, she plans to attend the University of Iowa to be an Instrumental Music Education major.
Clay has played soccer for a few years and again last year. She also loves being able to put projects into the Cass County fair through 4H. Clay works at the Atlantic Theater and the quilt store Something for You.
