Night of Holiday Lights

49 attendees for 98 hours

Guillermo Mendoza

Senior Night of Holiday Lights was a service event where Key Clubbers operated different booths and activities for the city of San Carlos. The booths and activities were meant for a celebration of the holidays. The booths ranged from creating paper fortune tellers to snowflakes. The event was one of my favorite events of the year. The kids were lovely to interact with and the scene itself was beautiful. There was a band walking around playing Christmas music and there was fake snow falling out of the sky. The kids were very joyful to even just create such little crafts. I really enjoyed bonding with my fellow key club members as well and highly recommend this event to everyone who can participate in it in the future.

Sara Wilkinson

Freshman The Night of Holiday Lights is when families and friends can go down to Laurel Street to enjoy live music, crafts, food, and much more. As a Key Club member, I volunteered at one of the craft booths to help kids make snowman ornaments. I really enjoyed seeing the kids having fun and being able to make something they can use for decoration. There were 2 sisters that had come to my booth and made my friend and I ornaments for our trees. It was really sweet and I hope I can do it again next year!

December DCM

10 attendees + 3 advisors for 20hr

Camille Ching

Freshman The December DCM at Aragon High School was a fun event I went to. We started out with the DCM and monthly awards. Then, we did a White Elephant and created origami soul boxes to honor victims of gun violence for the service portion. There was also a photo booth and food. I enjoyed creating soul boxes and being able to meet and spend time with people from many different schools!

Kaitlyn Kwan

Senior The Holiday-a-Thon was a social and service event that included members from D34N and D34S. At the event, we listened to informational presentations about gift-giving, time and stress management, and keeping new year’s resolutions. Following the presentations, we had the choice of participating in multiple activities including ornament making, karaoke, and playing games. I really enjoyed making my own ornament and meeting Key Clubbers from other schools. Another segment of the event was community service where I decorated postal boxes to send to military members. Overall, this event was filled with lots of diverse and fun activities that kept me engaged.

8 attendees + 1 advisor for 16hr

Holiday-a-Thon

HolidayGoodies for LifeMoves

12 attendees for 14hr

Sydney O’Donnell

Sophomore The Holiday Care Goodies for LifeMoves event was a small, simple after school event where we assembled gift bags. We divided candy into bags and then made handwritten little notes with phrases such as “Happy Holidays” and “Merry Christmas” to put into each gift bag along with the candy. It was a small group of people and we just sat at tables and talked while we worked. It was a very rewarding and enjoyable experience. I’m very glad that I attended.

Campus Cleanup

5 attendees for 7hr

Elizabeth Cruz

Freshman The Carlmont Campus Cleanup event was in-person and gave me a chance to make a difference at my school! We went around campus for an hour and a half picking up trash we saw littered on the ground. We were given trash bags and gloves to roam around with and ended with multiple filled bags. I liked this event because it let me have a specific time to pick up trash instead of just picking a piece or two of trash whenever I see it on the ground. I picked up trash from places where people would never see them and found pieces I had never noticed before. Generally speaking, I enjoyed picking up trash with my friends and I hope we can do it again with bigger attendance.
