Your DNE, Heyyy

How’sOrcas!it goinggg?! I assume all of you have started school and have gotten settled in for the most part, sadly we have to say goodbye to summer. September is the first month clubs start to get into the groove of Key Club and officers have to handle their duties and academics. I hope all of you plan to stay on top of it by adapting schedules, calendars, to-do lists while also taking time to yourself. I want to emphasize that even though the pace of life is quickening, staying motivated is the most important part of having a successful term. If things start to get overwhelming, please talk to others and try to sort out a solution (you can even talk to me!). As for this newsletter, it’ll be packed with important info pertaining to club rush. Which is THE most vital event that determines your term.

What’s Splashin’ Orcas?

Messages From LTG & DNE2

The school year is now in full gear! I hope you all are looking forward to an amazing year of accomplishing new goals, having fun, and living high school life to its fullest. Make sure to make an impact during this point in the term because we’re heading towards Club Rush! Make sure to recruit new members (especially those freshmen!) and reach your club to new heights! In this newsletter, the focus is growth and setting goals for the school year and the rest of the term(I hope you like the sunflower aesthetic LOL). Hopefully you are thinking of how to benefit yourself as a member and your club as we reach further into the term. Adding on, there aren’t any division events in this newsletter(But please look forward to the recap on Region 2 Picnic in next month’s newsletter!). However, let’s recap on all of the service your clubs have done in the months of July & August!

Your LTG,

5Club Rush TIPS & TRICKS From the Membership Growth Committee 1. Identifying New Members ● Don’t be afraid to reach out to people you don’t know, from different grades or from different backgrounds. Don’t forget to be inclusive and understand that anyone can be a Key Club member. ● Invite your friends! Key Club can both strengthen friendships and foster new ones. ● For those who already want to perform community service, let them know that Key Club can be a great way to serve. 2. Publicize Your Club in Multiple Ways! ● Social Media (Instagram, TikTok, Remind, Discord) ● School Announcements (Bulletin Board, Overhead Speaker, Flyers, Advertising to Teachers) 3. Show Off Your Spirit Cheers/Gear 4. Offer Incentives (Candy, Stickers) 5. Make a Photo Booth

On an early Wednesday morning, members from El Camino and Vista Key Club gathered at Vista Sports Park in the spirit of giving back to the community and getting to know each other! Members enjoyed donuts as the remaining key clubbers trickled into the park and participated in a game of duck duck goose, hide and seek, and soulmates. With that, it was finally time to package craft kits and snack bags!
