Editor’s Note
Hi everyone! As you can see from the table of contents,
there’s a lot of great upcoming events to talk about and pre-
pare for. Make sure you guys all sign up to volunteer so you
can get hours! Remember, you need a minimum of 20 hours
by the end of the service year in order to be counted as a
Key Club member for the year. These events in the next few
months will provide you with ample opportunities to earn
them! Enjoy the last few days of break everyone!
Your Editor,
Samuel Wu
And from all the officers:
President’s Message
Welcome to 2014! I hope you all had a wonder-
ful break! We have so much coming up these
next few months and the officers cannot wait to
start off the year with a ton of service. As a gen-
eral member, there will be tons of opportunities
to get involved such as in school fundraisers and
projects, or Lieutenant Governor elections! I'll
see you all back at school!
Yours truly,
Jasmine Jean
Future Events
Fundraiser for Mrs. Krinner
Mrs. Krinner, a staff member at Central Middle School, recently
lost her house as well as her three dogs in a fire. In a joint effort
with the Builder’s Club, we will be fundraising for money that will
be going towards a gift card for Target/Kohls and other such
stores.
Class Projects
General members, it’s your turn to show the officers and the advi-
sors your leadership skills! Each class will have a Class Project Di-
rector who will lead their respective grade on a project of their
choice. For example, some people choose to do restaurant fundrais-
ers, help at the soup kitchen, or go to the daycare center. All funds
raised through these events will go towards the Krinner family.
Learn more about become a Class Project Director at the next
meeting!
Baldwin Oaks
It’s almost time for our annual trip to Baldwin Oaks! This year,
we’re changing it up a bit and making performances the focus point
of the event, similar to Coffeehouse. So make sure you guys sign
up to perform, whether it’s singing, dancing, reading poetry, etc.
The exact date of the event will be announced at the next general
meeting.
Lieutenant Governor (LTG) Elections
Lieutenant Governor elections will be taking place on January 24.
Juniors and sophomores are strongly encouraged to run for this po-
sition if you are a truly dedicated member, and wish to play a larger
role in Key Club. It is a great way to get more involved, meet new
people, and obtain a unique experience. However, keep in mind that
this is an immense and serious task to take on and would require co-
pious amounts of time and effort. For more information, talk to
one of the officers!
Montville Volleyball Tournament
Yes, it’s that time of year again! The Montville Key Club will
be hosting their annual volleyball tournament in early 2014.
Last year, there were over 20 teams in attendance and courts
spread out over two gyms. The event raised over $8000 dol-
lars for the Eliminate Project! You sure won’t want to miss
out on this event!
DCON 2014
Get ready for another weekend full of expanding your
knowledge about Key Club, attending leadership work-
shops, and even dancing the nights away at next year’s
District Convention! DCON 2014 will take place at the
Ocean Place Resort & Spa from March 28-30. The
spots for this are extremely limited to it’s first come
first serve when the registration packets are given out!
