“On April 9th, Key Club members joined with the Interact Club at River Valley for a WAPI event. This was the first event of the term. WAPIs are able to indicate if water has been pasteurized which occurs at a lower temperature than boiling. The use of WAPIs can result in less time and energy being used. There were different stations to create these water pasteurization indicators. One station consisted of heating the tubes, crimping them, and adding the wax. Another station was to drill holes. There was a station for looping and crimping wires, and assembling the WAPIs using washers. There was also a testing station. The final station was for building S hooks and packaging the water pasteurization indicators. Overall, this was a very fun event and we made around 400 of the water pasteurization indicators.”

“I volunteered at the acting company to help set things up and clean. We cleaned out the upstairs of the acting company (that’s where they keep the costumes). We pulled down all the shoes we could find from upstairs. For the first hour I sized clothes, and for the other four hours I sized shoes, found their pairs, and zip tied them together. I enjoyed the amazing pizza donated to us by Kiwanians. I enjoyed the lovely people hosting the event. And we also got to pick out any dress that we liked as a gift for helping (I picked out my next year's prom dress). But! I did not like how many people did not show up. We could’ve gotten a lot done if there were more than five of us there, but because of the low number we only got a small fraction cleaned.” -

“The tree planting event was a great opportunity to celebrate Earth Day. It was fun working with others to make a difference in our own community. Although it got tiring at times, it felt rewarding to make our Earth greener!”
