What’s Crackalackin Monsters? Once upon a time there was an ugly barnacle, it was so ugly that everyone died. The end. This month I worked on a Goals Guide for 2015 and my other monthly DNE tasks of emailing the editors and submitting our division’s articles and visuals. The Beastly Bulletin comes out on the first of every month so bee sure to check it out because it’s so beautiful that everyone will be informed of what's going on in our division! Also if you see anything that you would like to alter about our newsletter let me know! By emailing me or messaging me on Facebook or texting me. I promise I won’t be offended. I’m so proud to say that over the past quarter our team of editors has improved substantially! My new goal is to receive all on time submissions of visuals and articles. We’re almost there! See you all soon Kiddos~ Sammi Tai Division 7 South Division News Editor Region 16| Cali-Nev-Ha District Key Club International

Executive Assistant Tommy Dang | Laguna Creek Aloha Division 7 South Monsters! Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to provide you with a little tale of the past month. Once upon a time there was once a toaster, inside contained a piece of toast and a slice of pizza. One day, the toaster managed to escape the death oven, but he was all burnt! In distress, he ran to the nearest local caring station, which turned out to be the Kiwanis Family House! Upon entering, the toaster discovered that there was Kiwanis DCM with a terrier hosting! The toaster went ahead and got involved with the terrier and duked it out! In the end, the toaster had been enslaved by the terrier, in return the toaster decided to take this position for the better good. The toaster focused on improving the community by creating an Inter-Club reflection google form, along with researching on the August Spotlight on Service Program: Children Education, and researching dues. This toaster had also helped aid the terrier with appointing recent TC apps, Autumn TC and FRN TC. The end!

Administrative Assistant Megan Morris | Franklin Hello, Division 7 South! As usual this past month I have been reviewing and working with secretaries on their MRFs. I would just like to say that our Division 7 South Secretaries have been doing a phenomenal job on their Monthly Report Form submissions. I have seen so much growth within each of them that it has made me truly grateful to serve such a dedicated division. I am also glad to announce that we have had 100% on time submissions for the 2nd month in a row! Thank you to all secretaries for all of their hard work. I have also been working on a project that will hopefully provide some motivation for members to attend DCMs that I hope will get members introduced to their Division. With some luck, this project will be revealed to you all before or during the next DCM so watch out for that.

Media and Tech TC Nathan Dang | Franklin What Up Monsters? It's your Tech & Media Task Coordinator again on the newsletter! So far I've worked on a few other video projects that contribute to Key Club, such as the Caring With Food, which is on the Division page! I'm also brainstorming for the next video, which will be RTC! Be sure to be on a lookout as RTC is coming soon. Have a good read!

Member Recognition TC Anthony Chan | Sheldon Hello, Division 7 South! I hope everyone is having a wonderful summer! This summer is going by fast and there is about 25 days left until school starts. Yikes! Although I am a member of the DLT with multiple tasks, I still focus on my academics and education. I am going into my sophomore year and I have put myself in AP and Honors classes as well as participating in two sports. High school does not last forever, but does not end quickly so I try to make the most of my high school life with my academics, sports and Key Club! I believe that this will be a fun year and I hope all of you have a great time as well in the next year of high school. School season is approaching and you should be getting ready for a jam-packed year of stress and homework, but also a lot of fun. Enjoy the rest of your summer because it is ending soon so make it count!

Kiwanis Family & Foundation TC Michael Mendoza | Florin Hey, Hey, Hey D7S Monsters! Lately I have been working on a guide on how to get more interactive with the Kiwanis and it is call "The D7S BEEing interactive with Kiwanis". This guide is for all of you wonderful faces. Also I plan on creating a service project at the Kiwanis Family House to make closer bonds with them. I have more planned out and will let you know as soon as they are complete! See ya later MONSTERS!

Summer Public Relations TC Joshua Diaz | Franklin Hello 7 South, As summer is closing, my term as your Summer Public Relations TC ends. I sincerely am glad to have served you all, and hope that my efforts have had a positive impact. For my successor, David Keet, I am confident you will do just as well or better than I have in taking on the responsibilities of your position. Some quick tips: make backup plans, keep in frequent communication about any plans, ask for help, and don't stress if things go wrong. Keep a positive outlook and remember to go back to the meaning of service. For the wonderful people I have worked with these past three months, I am going to miss it all. You all are really great, and I hope you don't forget it. For everyone else, keep doing what you do for others. Key Club is more than just a way to get hours signed off on a sheet. Serving others is a way to make things better for everyone. As has been emphasized over and over, keep on serving and remember that we are all leaders. Thank you all, and farewell.

Member of the Month Member: Yulan Feng (SHS) Although Yulan has not been very active her Key Club term, but she has been extremely active over the summer. Her attendance at events has been high and this could not have been possible without sacrificing her tennis practice to attend these events. From the Land Park Clean-Up to the Color Run and to our Division service project, she has attended them all along with many other events throughout the summer.

Officer of the Month Officer: Jackie Guan (Laguna Creek) Over the past month, Jackie has done more than his fulfilled duties on the Projects and Resources committee. Not only does he find service events, he also updates their clubâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Google Calendar. Although not many members are active over the summer, this does not determine how hard Jackie works or how much effort he puts into it. The fact that he has available resources for the members is great because it will allow members to find information on events and such.

Caring With Food By Benjamin Chan of Pleasant Grove Key Club On July 25, Division 7 South hosted Caring with Food Service Project at the Kiwanis Family House. Members were given the opportunity to donate foods such as bread, fruits, lunch meat, and cookies to be donated to the St. Johns Shelter for Women. At the event members from across the division were divided into three different stations. While some prepared sandwiches and packed them in paper bags, others wrote meaningful cards for children at the UC Davis Children’s Miracle Network hospital. This event was also paired with the Division’s ongoing Caring with Crafts Project in which volunteers loomed hats, and prepared blankets for hospital patients. Key Clubbers made blankets by cutting the edges off.

The Color Run By Karen Tran of Sheldon High School I attended the Color Run on August 1st which was my first time at the Color Run. I went with other members, Krista and Yulan. There were a lot of other members who were in charge of throwing the colors and helping pass out water. Krista, Yulan and I helped out by cheering on runners at the start and finish. We cheered at the top of our lungs to get the members hyped up and motivated. My favorite part was when runners hugged me and gave me high fives. It was also really nice when the runners would thank us for volunteering. It was a nice and heartwarming feeling seeing their smiles as well. I will definitely come back next year to volunteer and get color all over me! This was a great way to end the summer with a fun splash of color!
