HELLO EVERYONE! I hope all of you guys are doing well! As we head into the second quarter of this Key Club term, hopefully you have made amazing experiences with the first— whether it was through OTC, DCMS, or service projects :). Along with the second quarter, we are also heading back to school in a much more traditional setting, so let's take this to our advantage when Fall rally, club rush, and in person DCMs are around the corner!
Shining in service,

CLUB UPDATES On June 15th, Centennial Key Club began the Colored Concrete Service Project. Members could gain service hours by drawing health and safety reminders on their sidewalk or could create a health and safety infographic. Centennial Key Club members shared their creativity through the infographics they made and their art on the sidewalks. The event ended on June 30th. CORONA

During the month of June, Corona is planning an interclub social/service event with Santiago which will be Phineas and Ferb themed! Our officer boards met up through zoom on June 19, 11:30 AM to plan out our “104 Hours of Community Service” social/service event. In addition we had a separate meeting on June 27th to finalize the event details. This event will be held on zoom in July 25th and we will be playing many games on backyard.co and do color-a-smile with Santiago! We also have planned introductions and icebreakers!
For the month of June, ERHS Key Club had a service project where members ran, walked, or biked miles for service hours! By downloading the Charity Miles app and joining the team “erhs key club 2021-2022” members were able to keep track of their miles and exercise for their chosen charity! This helps to raise money for great causes, with the additional benefit of getting in shape!

JOHN F. KENNEDY For the month of June, we started off with the Positivity Posters service project. This service project was to help relive the stress on JFK’s highschool students and help them mentally prepare for finals. We placed posters all over the school with a couple of special ones where you can pull off a little tab with encouraging words. Overall for this service project, the vice president, secretary, and historian got a total of 10 hours towards the club. As Norco is getting settled in the tasks to have a successful term, we hosted our first general meeting with the students at Norco High School. Before the meeting, we campaigned about our club and showed how exciting it is to be a part of this family. We gained insight as to how many students were interested in our club. Our president, Roxy Fisher, and vice president, Jazmin Sifunetes, were helpful to the incoming members as they prepared a presentation in order to explain what our club is really about. We also discussed future plans to gain knowledge to which events people are most interested and excited about. This will help our club during the term because we are willing to listen to what our members desire to do. We hope to expand our services with the amount of members involved in our club.

On June 22nd, Santiago Key Club held an officer bonding meeting and it went from 3pm to 4:30pm. At the meeting we were able to get to know each officer better through fun activities like show and tell, tarot card readings, we’re not really strangers questions, and making a summer bucket list together. All five officers, Nicole H, Jasmine P, Janita I, Riya M, and myself attended this meeting and we all had lots of fun talking about how our summers were going. The reason we held the event was to get to know each other better and to become stronger as a team. The event was planned and led by our awesome president, Nicole Hatton, and she made it such a fun summer activity for all the officers, so a big thank you 7 to Nicole!
PRESIDENT’S MESSAGES CENTENNIAL Hey everyone! I can't believe summer is almost over. This month in July, Centennial has been working extremely hard on our Back-to-School Game Plan. Over the course of the past few weeks, our club has been developing our merch designs, our new website, service/fundraising ideas for the beginning of the school year, and our Club Rush Execution plan. Our officers are planning to have a Decoration Day (a day dedicated to creating booth decorations), along with an Officer x Committee photoshoot for our website profiles. Lastly, our community service events for this month are Charity Miles and Compliment Chains. Can't wait to see each other soon!
CORONA During July, the Corona High Key Club has been preparing for next school year! We are getting ready for some officer bonding, as well as a joint social and service event with Santiago’s Key Club later this month.❤
E. ROOSEVELT Hey Sheeps ! This month Roosevelt had their monthly street clean up on July 10th. Also members and officers attended the Eastvale Kiwanis Meeting at the Boostma Ranch on July 12th! For this month’s service project we have a recycle drive which all of the money made will be donated to PTP!

JOHN F. KENNEDY Hi there to our division 15 south family! This month I proudly would like to say that JFK key club finally has things under control. During July, we’ve had our ongoing service project “kindness rock project” which helped brightened our community and bring some smiles to our community which we love to see :) As the next school year approaches us, we’ve decided to team up with Alta Lomas key club in d15n and have a social/service project for when we go back to school <3
NORCO Hey Key Club! Norco completed our first service event as well as having our first general meeting this month! Working over the summer is tough but we’ve got this! We can’t wait to see you this year :).
SANTIAGO This month, Santiago has been hard at work planning an interclub service/social event with Corona key club! It is our backyard beach Phineas and Ferb themed event where we will do color a smile, watch Phineas and Ferb, and play mafia and it will be on Sunday July 25th from 2-3pm. We were going to additionally plan for a park clean up with corona but we unfortunately had to cancel it due to regulations and difficulty with it being summer. For monthly service, we have color a smile again, charity miles, and paper bridges letters to orphans. Last month, we also posted pride month resources to be INCLUSIVE since inclusivity is one of our core values. As for me, I have been more active using the Santiago remind and Instagram. Santiago officer board is also going to have an in person meeting with circle city Kiwanis on august 6th at Graziano’s! We want to establish those bonds so we can connect better (shoutout to Lauren for this idea of meeting up!)

EASTVALE KIWANIS MEETING
On July 12th, some ERHS officers and our LTG April Lonh attended our first in-person Kiwanis Meeting! We were able to hear club updates about the Eastvale Kiwanis club, what they have been working on, and what they are looking forward to in the future! They are actively engaged with their community and our LTG was so happy to see Key Clubbers there supporting their Kiwanians!
Special Guests from D15 Kiwanis LTG Ms. McNay and D15 Kiwanis LTG Elect Bob Prior made the experience all the more amazing and enjoyed seeing the unity! Shoutout to Mr. Rife for the free Eastvale Kiwanis shirts and April is so excited to attend more Kiwanis meetings in the 14 future!
