Need ideas for a "creative" resume (university ski club)

So I need to make some sort of creative resume but I'm not creative.
I'm applying to be a junior exec for my school's ski club, which would more appropriately be named the drinking club; this definitely does not have to be some super serious thing. Junior execs pretty much just show up to events and party and don't have any responsibilities as far as I know. It's not supposed to be in typical resume format and I can't think of what to create.
Just need ideas on how to format this bad boy, the objective is to "tell us about you and why you want to be an exec".

Help me NS!

Make certain you include your varied experience with tropical animals.

a trail map? that tells your experience/education story?...like a chair would be named after your high school, and HS diploma would be the run down from it? green circle.

another chair could be the name of your college, and the run down is your degree. black diamond.

You could do it in powerpoint and save the slide as a pdf.

Without looking at your profile I could tell this was U of C.

Get ready for A LOT of drinking and not much skiing.

Get a picture of a koala and write all your qualifications on the bear and when you hand them your resume tell them you have all the proper koalafications for this job. Bonus points if you can find an actual koala and shave your qualifications into the fur.

Write down your leadership experience on your penis, and just drop your pants when they ask for your resume. I bet they've never seen anybody do that before.

What if the people who make the decisions are on NS and they see your blatant lack of creativity and radness and don't choose you now?

But if I were doing this I would make a formal looking resume and say how much radder than them I am, or I would make a resume but print in comic sans and say how rad I am, purely in the getting rad sense, not the responsible sense. Basically I would make what you say creative, not how you say it.
