The CRAFT Club, which is also referred to as the CRAFT Society or simply as CRAFT, is an all male secret society founded in Charlottesville, Virginia.
Recently, CRAFT may have expanded to include several other chapters in the United States, including sattelite chapters in New York City and Washington, D.C.
It is rumored that CRAFT has deep ties to several specific student organizations at the University of Virginia.
Although CRAFT's purpose is unclear, members attend meetings at which they read passages from classic literature and drink heavily.
CRAFT meetings mostly occur late at night, usually in remote bars, where members can avoid notice while ordering many rounds of bourbon and ginger ale, the organization's unofficial drink.
Although membership is secretive, members are seen carousing before or after meetings in sports coats at specific Charlottesville bars.
CRAFT members outwardly exhibit virtues such as loyalty and fraternity and privately refer to each other by numbers indicating order of induction or by surname, rather than by first name.
Financial generosity is a hallmark of the organization, although it is unclear whether members are the only beneficiaries of its deep resources.
To ensure member commitment and loyalty, potential members are required to solve several extensive riddles during the induction process.
