Hey Hey Monsters!

With summer coming to a close end, many of you are probably scrambling to finish all the summer homework you have neglected for the past several months. Although summer is coming to an end, there are still several events you could sign up for before the school year starts.

In this issue, you’ll find some upcoming events coming up this month, a recap of last month’s events, updates regarding our International Board, and a few other fun things!

Please remember not to slack on your hours and try to get them done before you become busy! If you have any questions, comments or concerns, feel free to contact me or any other officer using the Contact Information page. Enjoy your last few days of summer! I’ll see you all when school starts.

In service and friendship, Cassandra Woo Franklin Key Club Bulletin Editor 2016-2017 Franklin Key Club Member 2015-2016
