Just like that! hey?
Do you have all of the members on board, and a commitment to help with the rent? And all that goes along with starting a club?
Renting a place, which is going to be expensive, you'll need insurance, and all kinds of stuff to go with it. unless you can find a sympathetic business owner that has the space.
If this is just a school project, how long do you think it will last? In a year or so, or sooner, is interest going to fade, and members move on? What about the school? Do they have any space for your "project"?
Maybe start out at a home of one of the members, or your house. Have it in your basement, as you are the one starting the club.

Since it is a school project, I would first go to the principal and or the head custodian, perhapse there is a place in the basement that would be available.
Then I would post to the school, maybe even with an announcement over the PA.
I would suggest a modular club (LION has NEVER done modular), that way people can take their modules with them after the school year or when they graduate.
Our schools had basements that were paved directly under the hallways, but had a sandy floor under the rest of the class rooms.
Maybe something could be fixed up in there. Perhaps something like the N-Trak modules would work. Everybody brings in their modules and sets them up in the gymnaisium for the science fair or what ever.

As the title states, I want to start a train club in my town of Lititz, PA, and am doing that for a school project. Does anyone have any pointers of ideas about how to do that quickly and easily, meaning in a month or less? Also, rent is not out of the option, but would have to be very cheap. My father suggested finding a place with an unused basement, or something like that. He suggested contacting the Chamber of Commerce, and I have, but have got nothing back. Any ideas or suggestions are welcome!
Thanks, Trainman05/MatthewB.
