'Satan Club' Finds Home At South OC Elementary School: Report

SAN CLEMENTE, CA — A new club preparing to launch in San Clemente has caused a stir in south Orange County, after it was announced that Truman Benedict Elementary School will play host to the After School Satan Club.

The club will have its first meeting on Feb. 12, which is being promoted with a brochure that displays a cartoon devil and a section titled, "Educatin' with Satan," The Los Angeles Times reported.

According to the report, representatives from the Satanic Temple say a Truman Benedict parent asked them to bring the program to campus after their student was given a permission slip to a Christian-focused after-school club.

“I look at us like vampires: We only go where we’re invited to,” said June Everett, the After School Satan Club’s campaign director told The LA Times.

The Satanic Temple Southern California told CBS News that its after-school program exists to provide a safe and inclusive alternative to religious clubs seeking to convert school children.

According to the club's brochure, the club’s goal is to give students a “fun, intellectually stimulating and non-proselytizing alternative to current religious after-school clubs being offered in our public schools."
