HAPPY NEW YEAR D13W!!
Welcome to the 8th issue of The Spiking Scoop! I can't believe 2023 is finally here! I hope everyone ended their 2022 year with no regrets! hope you all has a wonderful winter break, Christmas (if you celebrate) and New Years!
My first Rose Float Decorating was a blast! Although decorating the floats were tiring, having the chance to help the community and bond with my fellow Key Club members made it all worth wild. It was a long 6 hour day and by the end of the day my home club devoured 8 Domino's pizzas.
Winter Solstice is coming back yipieee! If you don't know what Winte Solstice is, it's our division formal full of fun, dancing and recognitions Members have the opportunity to "buy" the Division Leadership Team (DLT) and be apart of the Royal Court! (proceeds will go to PTP)
Make sure to stayed tuned for upcoming events on our division Instagram, Remind and Discord!
Drink water and stay safe hedgehogs! Can't wait for a wonderful 2023 with you all. <3

NEW SPEED NEW YEAR
Hedgehogs, we’re rolling faster than ever before. Can you believe it? All the service, fundraisers, and training conferences and now we’re in January. It’s like a new beginning. As you make your new starts, let your inner hedgehog spirit continue to roll you to being as spiking as you could ever imagine. For hedgehogs, January doesn’t represent the start, but rather the point of reflection and drive in hibernation. Whilst reflecting on the term’s pasts, let’s make an even better future. We have many goals to reach and events to experience. Roll with me before my term ends in hibernation!

Key club is such a fun and comfortable club, I’m able to help out the community while having fun with friends. I really like how easy it is to bond with people inside of key club, I’ve probably made 10+ friends all just from fall rally. Key club really just feels like a big family, I’m so glad I joined.
