January: Monthly Member of the Month: asia ros, Enochs This member is new to her club, yet she already has volunteered for 11 hours for the month of December alone. Showing great activeness in the club, she helps out the community very much and showcases her responsibility by attending all the club meetings. She has shown a great amount of enthusiasm and passion for Key Club already, and I’m excited to see what else she will bring to her home club. *Accepted by Philip Gergis, Enochs President
Officer of the Month: Christine to, gregori This officer has done a good job in leading the club by being a role model, with 7 service hours completed in December, and by constantly searching for potential service events for the club. With over 200 hours of service, this officer has been extremely active in volunteering in the community. I am proud to see all that she has done.

Recognition Club of the Month: Peter Johansen This club doesn’t have many members, yet they were able to volunteer for a total of 101.5 hours in December alone, which is an average of 5.97 hours per member. That’s amazing! The club board communicates well with me when necessary and I’m glad that they’re continuing to help out the community as much as they can.
Advisor of the Month: Brent Burnside, enochs This advisor really stepped up to help the club he advises connect with other resources to plan future events. He’s provided his club with many potential service projects to volunteer at, especially in December, and has helped in the planning process of many club events in the past month. Overall, he has been a great support to the club and I’m looking forward to seeing the end results of his help. *Accepted by Philip Gergis, Enochs President

McHenry Mansion Christmas Party Gabriella Dias, Central Catholic High Key Club On December 10th, one member from our school attended the McHenry Mansion Foundation Christmas Party from 3:30 to 7:30. She helped hang coats and help in the kitchen. She believed the experience was a great way to spend her Saturday because she was exposed to Modesto history and plenty of great people. In the next year, she hopes that more members are able to attend this event to be able to experience what she was able to experience. !

Philip Gergis, Enochs High Key Club Every year, Modesto Gospel Mission hosts a Christmas Party right before the 25th to celebrate Jesus’s birthday and assist families who have below average incomes. They do so by providing families with donated gifts and food at the party so they can afford celebrating Christmas. To prepare for this party, Key Club volunteers got together and went to Modesto Gospel Mission to organize the hundreds of gifts that were donated to them. The, we decorated the tables and background to make the place look more festive for the party. The event turned out to really fun for those who went since getting to decorate the room was entertaining, and we were even provided a small meal for our work. Overall, the event was a success and Modesto Gospel Mission was able to have a great Christmas celebration the following day. Division 46 North | Page 14

Division 46 North | Page 16
Hello D46N Red Pandas, My name is Philip Gergis and I am extremely proud and excited to say that I am your Lt. Governor Elect for the term of 2017 to 2018! I’ve been in Key Club for a whole two years now and I currently serve as Enochs Key Club’s president. I cannot wait to be able to serve you all and to work together to further improve our division! My time in Key Club has been more than enough to make it one of the most important aspects of my life. I decided to join Key Club after seeing the booth set up at our school during club rush and going with my friends to the first meeting. I knew right away that I wanted to be apart of this organization and joined. Although our club was fairly inactive at the time, I tried attending all of the events the club had offered and ended up getting hooked on Key Club. This is what led me to run for club president, and eventually, Lt. Governor. Key Club has proven to be one of the best things that high school has yet to give me. I’ve made so many amazing friends, went to extremely fun events, helped several people, learned how to be a leader, and made memories that will last for a lifetime. Seeing how spirited everyone is and how big of an impact this organization has made on the world truly has changed my life for the better. I wish to repay Key Club for all that it has done for me, and I plan on doing so by serving as this division’s Lt. Governor. I have many ideas and goals I wish to accomplish, but I can’t achieve them without all of your help, so I look forward to working with each and every one of you and doing everything I can to make our division the best it can be!
