What part of key club makes you keep wanting to come back
“Everything.” -Kim Anh Tran
“On that, I'd have to say the people. I could serve my community with any other organization, but Key Clubbers are the most caring and inclusive group of people I have ever met.” -Tyler Bosser
What part of key club makes you keep wanting to come back “It's the warm welcoming feel. The feeling you get is that everyone is welcome to come in and join.” -Darwin Phu
“the part of key club when I volunteer, I help people by donating my time and I have fun with my friends at the same time.” -Kelly Lo
“I think it's the sense of community Key Club gives that keeps we wanting to come back “ -Ryan Radius
“The fact that there is never enough work to be done around the community and all of the amazing people that you can meet make me want to come back.”
-Diego Betancourt
Hello from your President: Hi Key Clubbers, I hope you are enjoying the nice weather during summer break! I hope to see you soon at either our summer meeting or the July DCM! Whenever you have the time to, please go out and try to volunteer your time for those who need it. Make the most out of your summer by making the lives of those around you brighter. Share what being a key club member really means to our community each time you participate in an event, and most of all have fun! Even if you do not have time to volunteer this summer, just try to go out of your way to spread happiness around. Stay toasty guys! In Love and Service, Jacquelin Huang

It’s been fantastic so far! I absolutely enjoy the friendly atmosphere when you walk in. More information on the Kiwanis club will be provided Everyone make sure to enjoy the rest of your summer and hopefully see you at the two summer meetings. And I promise these newsletters will be much improved in August! I’ll see you next month. In Love and Service, Andy Ly
