HIYA Ninjas! We’re finally in our second quarter of the term!! Thank you all so much for participating in so many of our online service and social events without your help we are one step closer to our goal. Although we are facing a difficult time right now, please be sure to continue practicing proper hygiene by wearing your masks when going out and continuing to wash your hands. With this simple act you will be helping us be a step closer to having irl or in other words in person events! As summer continues please be on the lookout for many fun events such as Team service and social events, D13S x D30S Penpals, boba fundraisers, division events, and even region events. Although we can’t do much staying at home, we can always look on the brighter side and continue serving our community one step at a time. Also PLEASE STAY HYDRATED THE SUMMER HEAT IS NO JOKE! Kickin’ for Service,

Division 13 South Lieutenant Governor ‘20-’21

Whats KICKIN’ Keyuties! I hope you guys wiped the sweat off of your forehead for this HEATED MONTH! Thank you to everyone who has been participating in our first-ever TEAM events! Many of the Team leaders have been putting in their hard work to make sure you guys are expanding your friendships across the DIV! I just want to personally thank TEAM WHITE for being so amazing with attendance and participation :) Even though there were some technical difficulties, we still made it through with a success! By the way, I hope you guys have enjoyed me, drinking salty milk and smashing eggs on my head :,) Thank you to those who donated to PKC’s Dare square! I’m pretty sure a majority of you guys have attended OTC and took a lot of notes. Harry PotterTC was certainly a MAGICAL day for me ahaha since I got to present alongside one of my close friends Victoria, who also serves as both president and EA for 13 north! Victoria and I worked hard on creating those slides, as well as our icebreakers so a special thank you to those who attended our workshop. The summer is really flying by fast so please make sure to get those HOURS!! Make sure to stay active y’all :>> Through the hardest times we have to stick together to continue making a change in our very own homes.

AYO Ninjas! It’s hot in here, there must be some ninjas in the atmosphere… I hope you all are enjoying your summer as much as you can! With the current situations going on, don’t stress yourself out too much. Pace yourself and take it one at a time. A BIG thank you to everyone who came to Officer Training Conference to learn more about their positions or other positions! I hope you all had as much fun as I did. If you ever need help about effective communication, discord or anything else, I’m always open to help anyone. Aside from that, teams are NOW in effect. Make sure you attend your team’s events and be on the rise up for the lil’ competition. Remember: I’m always here if you need someone to talk to, at any time! Stay kickin’ ninjas, I love you all!

Ruth Rapuri Secretary | Gahr The dog toy making service event was an extremely fun way to combine service and social together. Everyone on the zoom call was having fun listening to music and cutting up old shirts :) Although some people did struggle braiding the shirts haha, it was super fun to see everyone just bond together and catch up while doing a good cause!

Ronald Ourng Historian | Sato Members of Sato Key Club during the month of June created fathers day cards as a service event for Fathers Day! Even as the quarantine restrictions ease up, service opportunities are still limited to what we can do at home. Every member that participated in the card making made at least 3 different cards for their dad. We hope that the cards our members made will have an impact on their dad's day and their future!

Ian Salazar President | St. John Bosco During the July 4th Weekend I and many Key Clubbers from the Bellflower schools helped out with the Bellflower Kiwanis Fireworks Stand. It was an awesome way for us to get out of the house and be outside for the first time in awhile due to the ongoing pandemic. Although it took standing outside in the hot weather and carrying many heavy boxes around, it was fun to hangout with friends and see each other again after a while. I had such an amazing time seeing my fellow Key Clubbers again.

Coral Pongsuwan Historian | Bellflower From June 26th-28th, Bellflower Key Club decided to create a service event called Love and Positivity! Our members created paper heart origami with a message inside! It was a fun way to show the appreciation we have for the people in our lives, and an easy way to be crafty during the summer! Thank you to everyone who participated!

Jacob Arce Historian | Mayfair Bellflower, Gahr, and Mayfair’s board members all collaborated to create a fun bonding experience for members of their respective clubs. To kick off the bondfire, members had to guess the drawings of each board president in a game of pictionary. Unfortunately for them, though, they were quick at guessing, and good too, giving them about 20 seconds to draw. Afterwards, members began to fill in coloring pages for service hours, in which they conversed for about 40 minutes, mainly led by Abby’s bizarre topics. To close off, members learned more about key club through a kahoot game about key club trivia. To close, I can only hope we have more collaborative events like this one, and hopefully even one in person!

Megan Deseo Graphic Editor | Polytechnic DCM for this month brought back all four nations as well as every school in our division. Everyone had a fun time guessing the club presidents in our division for the ice breaker. We had our monthly recognition as well, cheering everyone who made it as well as the first recognized DLT member. People who made it to our committees such as Spirit Team, Publicity Committee, and Judging Committee were announced as well. Everyone congratulated these people as they moved forward to fulfilling their new roles and responsibilities for the division.

Emily Uy Historian | Wilson Officer Training Conference was on June 27th and we were joined with both Division 13 West and Division 13 North. The officers were joined by guest speakers and our Kiwanis Advisors. Officers learned more about their roles in their home club board and division. Along with other important skills like communication and dealing with stress. Of course by Key Club fashion there are many icebreakers and games in between the sections. The conference was a fun way to learn more about the responsibilities of their roles and meeting new/old faces from our and other divisions.

jia lucero HI-YA Division 13 South Ninjas! For the month of June, Mayfair Key Club has been on hiatus due to the current social issues. During this time, we have been taking the time to reflect on how we can better serve our community and focusing on what has been happening. Although we have been on a hiatus from our club events, our board has been using the time as well to plan effectively for the month of July. Be on the lookout!

angelina liu This month was slow but seeing other clubs being interactive and motivated inspired us to do the same. We are planning to start holding board meetings every month.

liana ngauv This month, we attended events and plan on attending more in the future.

Overall, June was a successful and productive month for our club.


nicole capcha Hi guys! For this month, we held our fifth general meeting where members got to know their officers more and had a little key club 101. We are still working on our website and have many service event ideas for the future such as a father’s day card making event!

zerlin garcia This month, we attended events and plan on attending more in the future.

mariana martinez During the month of June we didn’t do much. As the summer break has started for us, we had a harder time reaching out to members. Although this month, we plan to get a head start in planning things out for our home club. Such as a website and visuals for the upcoming school year.

hector andrade & ian salazar HI-YA Division 13 South. For the month of June, our club continued on the Key Club grind especially as our summer vacation was fast approaching. A majority of our officers and members participated in the service weeks that were put on by the division. We also participated in D13 OTC. We hope to continue serving our homes, schools, and communities as we move into our summer vacation and into the new school year.
