Love is in the air, Kiwis! What love you, ask? That D2 love! February is here and a handful of great events and opportunities are coming your way! January was a great start to the new year for us. We're entering an era of new service and leadership. The term is soon coming to a close, but Division 2 is nowhere close to slowing down. San Leandro continues to hold their annual tradition by hosting Awake-a-Thon! Come out on February 20 for a night of service and bonding. From 9 PM to 9 AM, we will be staying up ALL NIGHT in an effort to raise money for the EliMiNaTe Project! I have been to this event almost every single year in high school and I can say that it's filled with fun times and memories. If you have any questions, feel free to ask a San Leandro officer! As mentioned before, the end of the term is coming soon. It's not all sad, however. I know, I know, I'll be leaving, cry cry cry. District Convention 2016 is on the way! On-time registration is due on February 10 at 6 PM. If you decide to register after this point, the registration fee per member will rise to $249. Be sure to communicate with your club advisors and make sure that you have the help you need! If you have any questions about this wonderfully memorable event, feel free to ask me or a club officer. Time is running out, Kiwis! Isn't it weird to think that this will be one of the last issues from DNE Meiling? Be sure to thank her for all her hard work throughout the entire term. She works tirelessly to think of new ideas to make the newsletter more interesting for you guys. Please take a good read and I'll see you at an event soon! Taking FLIGHT in Service, Calvin Tang

RECOGNITION

OAKLAND

AMERICAN INDIAN had the most service hours. ALBANY raised the most funds. ALAMEDA is our club of the month.

$374

KIWANIAN of the month VICTOR CHAN— He has been assisting Oakland clubs for years as

their Kiwanis Advisor and as the assistant Region 9 Advisor. However, he has recently been promoted to Region Advisor for all of Region 9 to help guide not only Division 2, but Divisions 8, 26N, and 26S as well. The amount of work and care he’s put into Key Club is admirable.

YVETTE RODRIGUEZ— As a new secretary for a newly chartered

club, she did not have much guidance from other officers to fill out the MRF properly, but not only did she submit a perfectly completed MRF for the month of December, but she also updated all past tabs to show just how well her club has been doing.

MEMBER of the month

CASTRO VALLEY

SABRINA HO— Despite

her extra busy schedule, she always makes time for service and Division Council Meetings. During her three years in Key Club, her passion and dedication has always been apparent, and she goes above and beyond to make new friends while continuing to keep in contact with those she’s made in the past. She is one of the friendliest Key Clubbers you could meet.

ClubClubRepOrts RepOrts Our key clubbers and key club officers attended the Dunsmuir Holiday Tradition event, the Salvation Army Christmas Luncheon, and also Rythmix Cultural Works: Bubble Show. We finally collected all the money from UNICEF boxes and started to count the money raised. We are currently planning a fundraiser where we will members and nonmembers can buy roses and write a note and we will deliver them to the recipient. We are also starting board elections next week.

For this month of holiday cheer, Albany Key Club had a variety of fun events! We helped at a Barnes and Nobles Gift Wrapping that contributed to our school district, and also helped at the Christmas Bird Count Dinner, making centerpieces for tables and registering attendees. Lastly, we held an annual holiday fundraiser making, selling, and delivering winter wonder candy cards at our school


In December, we began the month by monitoring street closures for Montclair Village's Holiday Stroll. Later, we decorated and participated for the MDA's annual holiday party and the Kiwanian Auction. We also volunteered for December's DWS at the Dunsmuir Estate and ushered for OYC's 41st annual Winter Concert. To end the month, we served at the East Bay College Fund's Annual Winter Retreat and Oakland AFS Foster Youth Holiday Funtastic.

To finish off the year, Arroyo Key Club has participated in as many events that would bring joy to the community as possible. Through events such as It’s a Wonderful Night, and Toy Basket Sorting, we were able to spread the joy of service to all we encountered. We topped off the year with a collaborative event with Arroyo Interact. The InterKey movie night was a great success to celebrate the amount of service committed by both D2 Kiwis and A2 Salamanders!


During the month of December, Berkeley High key club participated in two events. On Saturday, December 5, we helped out over in Oakland with the Lake Merritt Clean Up and on December 12, we volunteered at the Berkeley High School Holiday meal.

Before transitioning to the new year, Castro Valley Key Club had to wrap up a few lose ends before calling 2015 a good year. We volunteered twice with our Kiwanians at the Safeway BellRinging. Before the break started, we announced elections for the 2016-2017 term as well as information about DCON 2016. On the 20th, we worked with CVHS's Acts of Random Kindness club to make cards for hospital patients. We celebrated 2015 together with our Winter Social. We ended December with Meals on Wheels, as well as Bethel Food Pantry.

In December, Oakland Tech has participated in the DWS that lasted over a few weekends, helped out Uhuru with baking pies for fundraising, and fundraised for ourselves over $200 from a boba sale.

This past month, our club volunteered at the Uhuru Farmer's Market and Holiday Kiwanis Auction. At the Farmer's Market, we were happy to have four new members attend, and hope they will continue to stay active within our club. Additionally, we had Club Day at our school, and were able to recruit more new members for our club. We're also continued our bubble tea sales to raise over $250!

This month of December, San Lorenzo Key Club participated in the Oro Loma Levee Project, the Dunsmuir Estate DWS, Aquarium of the Bay Breakfast Support, and the Salvation Army: Christmas Food Boxing Event. We also had 2 fundraisers where we sold cookies and coco, and also had a Christmas-themed photo booth. We raised $150 for the Eliminate Project! (we also performed an awesome Christmas-themed club report at the DCM.)


In the month of December, we unfortunately have not had a lot of attendance to services, but we have focused on building stronger relationships between officers and the club. We had a white elephant event and we also had a potluck. We have also been prepping for elections.

December DCM: D2 Charlotte Chan, Encinal

What better way to welcome the holidays than iceskating? As the cold weather approaches, we all f ind ourselves drawn to the chilly ice rink. However, this we are warmed by the opportunity to meet our fellow key clubbers from other divisions. Our unity as a club extends beyond our own schools and divisions as we all put on our skates, gloves, and scarves. At this month’s division council meeting we met up at the Dublin Iceland Ice Skating. Once again we meet to discuss the progress and news of our clubs, but even as we talk we’re all excited to get onto the ice. This time it’s not just us Kiwis, we’re also joined by the Blue Devils who share are anticipation. It is a great opportunity for us to meet

with other Key Clubbers who share our heart for service, leadership, and fun! As soon as we get onto the ice, some are already gliding along effortlessly around the rink. Some of them even showed off their cool moves here and there. It looked so easy when they did it, but who knew it would be so hard? Personally for me, ice isn’t my natural habitat. The skates felt foreign to my feet as I dragged them into the rink. I found myself hugging onto the edge of the rink as I inched my way in. After awhile, a long while, I realized that holding onto the edge of the rink would bring me nowhere. I gathered all my courage and let go. It wasn’t so bad. I took small steps and bigger steps as

I became bolder. It was all going so well until I suddenly found myself sitting on the ice. I struggled a bit before a friend helped me up, and it wasn’t long before I was skating again. Maybe it took a couple of falls, but by the end of the night I was no longer afraid of the slippery ice and blades on my feet. Even though falling is frightening, there’s a certain sense of victory and assurance that comes with getting back up. After falling once, I was able to take confident strides on the ice, because I was no longer afraid of falling. Falling is just a part of taking risks. I realized at this short and fun event, that the greatest lessons come from the most mundane things.

Christmas Food Boxing

December 20, 2015

5 days before Christmas, San Lorenzo Key Club attended the Salvation Army: Christmas Food Boxing event. When we arrived to the event, we were greeted by other volunteers ranging from students, adults, and seniors. We were given a brief orientation about the history of the Salvation Army organization. They also informed us that the boxes that we will pack that day will be delivered to various food banks in the TriValley area. After the orientation, we were assigned different stations such as preparing the boxes, filling the boxes with various foods, taping the boxes, and also putting the boxes on pallets in

Wesley Sosa, San Lorenzo

order to easily place them inside the delivery trucks. We were also challenged to pack 650 boxes in an hour, and that motivated us to work even faster. Everything happened so quickly, many boxes were filled, and before we even knew it, we already completed our challenge. Although the time constraint added a pressure to us, we were still able to complete the challenge and have fun while doing it. I interviewed Key Club member Galal Mohamed about his overall experience in the event and he replied, “I had a great time, getting to meet new people and working [alongside with them] to make a change was

a heart-warming experience! It really [made me aware] that there are people in this world who care about others, EVEN those who work so hard to get on the table to support their families. I know that every box we filled wasn’t going to waste but [instead] going to the right hands of thankful people who just try to make it through the day with what they have. “I would really attend this event again because it just fills [my] heart with love and care that [I] never felt before, therefore, I absolutely recommend that [SLz Key Club] do this again and persuade others to try it out because I assure you won’t regret it!”


Alta Mira Club Holiday Tea The Alta Mira Club Holiday Tea event was a lovely occasion that took place in San Leandro on December 12, 2 01 5 . T h e a m o u n t o f volunteers we had for the event was outstanding, considering that December is typically a busy month. With so much help, volunteers were able to quickly and efficiently assort platters of sandwiches and sugary sweets for elderly guests. Volunteers were asked to

politely greet the table they were serving and to attend to their requests when necessary. Members reported back saying that it was “like working in a cafe” and that they “really enjoyed serving the guests.” I, along with my peers, would be glad to serve at the Alta Mira Club again. We were taught proper etiquette for serving and drinking tea and coffee, as well as appetizer assortments. The Alta Mira Club was so thankful for our service that

Kristen Chhom, Arroyo they provided each volunteer with a small tip, as well as provided food. Members were able to communicate with those who were serving, as well as those who were served, enjoying one another's company. All together, volunteering Alta Mira Club was welcoming, and exciting. Respectively, both parties would enjoy joining forces for another event.


Winter Social “Tis the season to be jolly,” and that’s exactly what Castro Valley Key Club did on December 22nd. In desperate need of relaxation and bonding, our Service Committee hosted the Winter Social for all of our spectacular Kiwis! Although the social wasn’t technically supposed to start for a few more hours,

people started to show up Johnny Chen, Castro Valley and get comfortable for everyone had brought. From the huge amounts of fun that sushi to katsu, from homemade they didn’t even know they were boba to bacon-wrapped mashed going to have! Once 3 P.M. potatoes, we started stuffing rolled in, we kicked off the ourselves as we all got to chill out bonding with introductions and and have fun! an Ice-Breakers which many Throughout the night, know as “Bang!” After that our Kiwis were playing cards, intense gun-fight, we started watching movies and doing even eating all of the potluck that more games like “Mafia.” Unfortunately, we had to call all of the excitement to an end as the time was approaching 6 P.M. However, we finished off a SUCCESSFUL Winter Social with our “amazing” holiday karaoke where ears may or not have ended up bleeding (disclaimer: they didn’t). Having such an incredible membership of dedicated members is what made this event so much fun! To an even greater year in 2016!

Raymond Chu, Oakland Tech

December is the month of song, joy, giving, and receiving. Once again, Oakland Tech’s Key Club was fortunate to be able to work with Uhuru Foods and Pies in an effort to battle colonialism in Africa. December is the last month of the year and one of

the coldest, so surely families would love to enjoy handmade home pies over Christmas. Just like Thanksgiving, Oakland Tech Key has participated to help prepare, bake, and box pies ready to sell. The proceeds will go toward the African Community and help employ all people of African American descent. We look forward to more opportunities to work with Uhuru and contribute to their aim.


Winter Wonder Candy Cards

T’was the month of holiday cheer, and Albany Key Club’s annual Winter Wonder Candy Card Fundraiser! We would make cards for people to buy at our school for $1 each, and then deliver their cards on the second-to-last day of school before winter break, along with a yummy baked good. We got to work early this year, making cards three weeks before delivery so we had ample time to sell. We bought colorful card stock and ribbons, and members helped at the end of club meetings to make cards in assembly-line fashion. We then sold cards for a week before delivery, at every lunch in our school’s atrium. Members also had the option to sell cards themselves. We trusted them to keep track of the cards and be honest about turning in money. These two methods turned out to be very effective, as we sold over 400 cards in the end. As for the baked goods, we gave the choice of either ricekrispies or brownies to come with the card. Members helped bake both, which was incredibly helpful, but in the end there were just too many orders of brownies to possibly home-make all of them in time and we had to buy some. Fortunately, they were still delicious! The day of card delivery was chaotic, but exciting and

fun. Members helped during every period of the day to deliver the cards, and we even had a Santa costume that members could dress up in. We also had a mix-up during third period, but thankfully we found out in time and with the help of our incredible members, running from classroom to classroom to try to deliver in time, all cards were delivered in the end. Although this fundraiser took many hours of planning, organization, and work, in the end we made great profit, had lots of fun, and brought joy to so many people.

DECEMBER DWS Angela Quach, Alameda

The Dunsmuir Holiday Tradition took place on December 5th, 6th, 12th, 13th, 19th, and the 20th. This event started from 10:30 am to 4 pm. The location that the event took place was in Oakland. This event happens every year and it was Key Club’s Division Wide Service event. The people who came to volunteer had to wear black since it is easier to see who were the volunteers and who was not. The mansion was really big and spacious. It was also really nice too since it was decorated with a lot of Christmas decorations and Christmas trees. The mansion was already decorated a while ago so we were not assigned to that job. Instead, the job we were

assigned to was watching the children that came to the event and to also entertain them. We stayed in the area that was designated for children. There was not a lot of kids at this event when I went but a few more came after. We made some roasted marshmallows and enjoyed them with both the other key clubbers and also the children. We entertained the kids The next day that we went to volunteer, we were led inside the mansion. Our job was to direct tours that many people took and to also explain the items in the mansion. Overall, this was a really fun event. It was filled with many christmas decorations and it also gave a really great

warmth since many people came to see the mansion. It was a really great way to meet other Key Clubbers since this event was a DWS. It was also really fun too.
