LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR GREETING Hello Division 18! Welcome to my August Newsletter! I can't believe it's August already! Time is flying by! I hope everyone is having a wonderful summer so far. These past couple weeks of Key Club have been quiet, but there are some exciting events coming up! I won't spoil them for you, so make sure you check out Page 4 for “Upcoming Events”. Although we aren't in school at the moment, it's still important to fill out paperwork! I am missing quite a few MRF submissions for the month of June and the July MRF that’s due on August 10th. Make sure you get those forms in ASAP! They are extremely important. That's all for now! If you have any questions, don't hesitate to reach out! Have a wonderful rest of your summer!! Yours in Service, Madison Matice

SERVICE SPOTLIGHT Sarah Weinreich from Great Neck South Key Club Division 4N The Great Neck South High School Key Club has been gathering ideas to help the community in some way. The idea of creating masks for our Key Club was an idea worth investing our time with. This project will be especially helpful due to the fact that we are in an unprecedented time of the COVID-19 pandemic. We plan to create masks for our fellow peers so they can safely enter places while also wearing our simple yet creative design. Although this may be small, it goes a long way considering the position we are put in during these tough circumstances. With these masks we will be able to enter the second half of 2020 with style and with safety. Our goal is to be able to have a few mask designs that anyone at our school can get. This will promote our club and hopefully get us more members!
