HIYAA NINJAS! I hope everyone’s school year started great and that you had a even better summer :))
I spent my summer just relaxing and playing ROBLOX. The highlight of my summer would have to be R8 RiO-Lympics! I was apart of the publicity committee and the main graphic took me like 4 hours to make. It was rewarding to see it being reposted tho B) I was also able to interact with new people in our region. I’m hoping to make more friends outside of the division :D
It’s honestly insane that this will be my last year as a Key Clubber, but my years were spent well!!! I can’t wait for the big events of the term like my first (and last) FRS and RTC!!
This newsletter is dedicated to my friend’s dog, Whiskey! He’s no longer with us </3 because he moved away and is with another family :(

For the month of August, representatives from all 10 schools in the division went to Key Club Take-Over. Attendees enlightened others about their Key Club journey. Clubs were also able to fundraise. Thank you to Ms.Lin for arranging the event!
Region 8 Olympics DCM was a fun sports day and one for the books as it was the first R8 Olympics in 3 years. We hope all that went had a fun time!

Division members attended one of the biggest service events of the term, Aloha Run! They helped out with runner registration and water stations.
Next month is the annual Night-Market DCM! Come check out the club booths and enjoy quality time with other Key Clubbers.
The CNH DIstrict recently released several YouTube videos educating Key Clubbers on board positions and other fundamental Key Club knowledge.

Aloha run was amazing! I got to cheer the runners on with some members of D13S and D13N. It was so cute to see how all the runners would instantly smile or take videos of us. I loved meeting so many kind people at the event whether they were runners, vendors, or Aloha Run staff. Overall, we all had so much fun in helping with this event! I can’t wait to volunteer again next year!!

For our PLARN Interclub with Jordan Key Club, we repurposed plastic bags into mats! Using scissors and the magic of knotting plastic together we were able to create something sturdy with purpose! Plastic bags is one of the biggest contributors to waste on Earth. By repurposing the plastic into mats, we aren’t only helping those out suffering from homelessness, but also doing our part to protect the planet. We only have one planet, so make sure to…
Region 8 Olympics made a comeback this term! It’s been almost 3 years since the last olympics, making this event historically important.
The event started off with an opening session when the lieutenant governors and KFF Chair introduced themselves. This was followed by the Pledge of Allegiance and the Key Club Pledge. The divisions had their separate DCM’s and joined back together for the main event… THE OLYMPICS!
Five division-mixed teams were created. They went head to head during multiple rounds of “Poncho” and then games. The games included Air Balloons, Life-Size Cup Pong, Bucket Pour, and Relay Race.
The four games prior helped the team members get to know each other and build team spirit. The Relay Race was the most anticipated event. Two members first completed a three-legged race, then two members popped a balloon by running into each other, then one member carried a egg safely to the runner that carried the team to victory by crossing the finish line.
After these five events, Team For the Win took home the win!
Following the closing sessions, Division 13 South pranked Region 8 with water balloons to help them beat the heat!
Region 8 Olympics was an unforgettable event! Thank you to the Lieutenant Governors for organizing the event and the efforts of all the committees that made this event possible!

The AOC7 Neighborhood showcased our members ability to work cohesively with not only each other, but members of other organization to benefit the community. The event started with a cleanup of the neighborhood surrounding a school where we removed waste ranging from fast food containers to diapers to a rusted out saw blade. After everything was safely disposed our members began their work cleaning up the Franklin Middle school campus by helping to remove weeds, and sweep up large amounts of dust and rocks left over from renovations. Our members worked with volunteers from several different organizations to accomplish this feat, and all in all it was a blast to work with such amazing people towards creating a more beautiful and safe environment for the students and families in the area.

Poly Key Club had an amazing service opportunity with Teqball USA Tournament :DD We helped clean the curved tables that the players played on as well as catch out-of-bound balls! We had to be alert though, because it will hurt if you get hit by the ball :000 (friendly reminder to bring your MRF’s haha). Although our choices were limited, we got free food vouchers!! We also got these FIRE t-shirts that we took home as a souvenir to remember this event by. All in all, it was lots of fun volunteering, learning all about Teqball, and getting to know each other better as a club :^)) We look forward to seeing more of our members at our future events like these!!
I joined Key Club because of the community service. I was dedicated to serving my community from the beginning, and I wanted a club that allowed me to do just that. With Key Club being the biggest club at my school, it was hard to NOT notice their
Key Club has taught me responsibility and dedication. Without earning my DLT and officer positions, I wouldn't have understood the work that's put into planning and executing events. It was easy to consider quitting, but it was the responsibilities of serving my
My Key Club moment was my first spirit session. As much as I love service events, it was nice seeing everyone come together in numbers late at night in an empty (but nice) school chanting with so much hope and pride.
I would say to try out a few events! No one has to commit to Key Club, but once you find your group of friends and uncover the scene that best fits you (at DCMs, service, or socials), you'll be set in a new family for life.
We plan on attending events and planning our own.
For the month of August Cabrillo was a bit inactive due to busy schedules, but we have been preparing for club rush and how we are going to recruit new people! We will try to go to more service events in the future and plan our own as well!
For the month of August we’ve had 0 club meetings but have had a board meeting. We held a joint club service with Poly Key Club and have had no fundraisers. No new members have joined Jordan Key Club.
HIYAAAA NINJASSS!!! For the month of August, Millikan Key Club had an AOC7 neighborhood cleanup with Wilson and a fundraiser with 7 Leaves on that same day! We raised a total of $73.20!!! We’re currently planning ways to recruit members during club rush ;)) Remember, ITS A GREAT DAY TO BE A RAMINJA!
Greetings D13South !! Poly Key Club has been doing well! Collaborating with Jordan for PLARN, we made reusable mats out of plastic bags. Reducing waste! Every month we have a shoutout, and August’s member of the month goes to Jasmine Lee. Make sure to check up with more specific news on our club through the PKC newsletter. Each one is themed and there for you to catch up on what happened. For the month of September, we’re planning a PTP service event with Cabrillo and hopefully we may also work with CSULB CKI for a beach clean-up! September has lot’s in store especially for service, fundraising, and fun! The tradition continues once again with Night Market DCM, and you’ll see us there selling items for PTP! Lastly, make sure to approach everyone with an open-mind and heart. Key Club may be intimidating at first especially to freshmen, but it gets better and you’ll grow out of your shell, cracking jokes at service events in no time!
mcbride key club has club rush coming up soon me and my board are working really hard to make our booth looks the best and very informative so we get more members into our club
School started, we had club rush the other day. It was massive. Current members promoted key club like crazy and a bunch of new students join key club, about 80 signed up. That many people is a lot though, especially in a small classroom that we meet in. Hopefully most of them show up. Planning to get more officers to handle that amount of members.
Hi Ninjas! Sato has attended events like the Teqball tournament and is planning for upcoming club rush! We have a lot planned for the next month for our new members!
St. Anthony Key Club has recently been keeping advertising and growing in number, as well as scheduling their own service and fundraising events for the entire school year, with their first one happening soon. The Saints are eager for their future plans as the rest of the school year awaits, planning more ways to spread love and the Key Club spirit!
