Hey Key Clubbers! One quarter down and only 3

more to go! I don’t know about you guys by I know Key

Club has definitely helped to keep my spirits up this

school year!

Thank you to those who have volunteered

throughout the school year and have continued to be

active participants through the club and at meetings.

You guys are greatly appreciated! Don’t forget to keep

track of you hours and recycling's so you can use it for

this years DCON!

I have just a few reminders for you guys, please

make sure you are checking the school emails your reps

send out. They contain very valuable information and it’s

a very easy way to keep up to date with the current

news. Also make sure you are committing to the events

you sign up for, there is more about that on page 5.

Overall you guys have been doing great! Thank

you to all who payed your dues, thanks to our awe-

some treasurer and you guys we have turned in 117

dues! That’s put us in the lead so far for our district and

will help with DCON seating! Way to go KR!

As you all know, we recently elected our new Class Representatives. Each representative had to fill out an application and give a short speech in front of their peers. The people elected will now act as a liaison be-tween the officers and you as they will send out frequent emails as well as be open for direct discussion with you. These wonderful Representatives will also collect handbooks and take attendance at meetings. We are very excited to begin working with these wonderful people, congratulations to our new Class Representatives!

What it Key Leader? Key Leader is a weekend long leadership pro-

gram geared towards the youth leaders of today (that’s you)! The retreat

includes workshops, discussions, and team-building activities. Through-

out the weekend the attendees get to develop their skills as a leader and

make life-long friends!

This year some of Kentridge’s Key Club members attended. I think

they can all agree that it was an amazing experience. Check out what fel-

low Key Clubber Andrew Uyeta has to say: “Where do I even begin... Key leader was such an amazing experi-

ence from meeting new people to all the fun activities we did. I honestly

have to say the best moments of Key Leader for me where the outdoor

activities. Working together with your key leader friends and trying to

figure out how to pass the levels is the more satisfying feeling ever. This

place is just full of fun and excitement. The people their make you feel

like you are at home because everyone there is just like you. I've learned

so much their and I'm glad Jessica got me to go because this is some-

thing I'll never forget. I encourage anyone who wants to become a lead-

er or if you're shy... to GO! I consider myself a shy person but once I got

there I opened up and it gave me a different view on live. All in all Key

Leader is something you can't miss out on. See ya next time at KEY

LEADER!” - Andrew Uyeta

comes with school and the

end of the quarter. We are

blessed with a passionate and

hardworking club. Keep up

the good work!

I do want to throw out

there an important reminder

though. If you have signed up

for an event, please attend

the event. You guys have

been truly amazing, but there

has been a few times where

people don’t show up. We

understand stuff comes up,

but please let an officer know

We have had a blast

these past few months during

a variety of volunteer services.

From participating at our clas-

sics like NW Harvest, Kent

Parks, and Green Kent Day.

Or branching out and volun-

teering a spectacular events

such as Aki-Con and

KentHOPE, the club has really

been pulling through.

A huge thanks to all

who continue to volunteer

throughout the chaos that

This past week was probably the best week in existence…

Key Club Week! A huge thank you to all who sported your KC

gear! I hope you guys will continue to spread the joy and love

that comes with Key Club all year long.

Also thanks to those who participated in the potluck on

Friday and brought food or bid on an officer!
