Georgia Southern also came and brought some home-made desserts! Afterwards, we enjoyed a small Presidents Council Meeting followed by the Division Rally at the Oglethorpe Mall where we ate dinner, shopped around, and took some great pictures. All in all, it was a great time with some great friends! :)

Congratulations Jasmine! Jasmine Sherman has shown her dedication to Circle K by going above and beyond her regular officer and member duties. Not only did she step up to the plate earlier this year to become new club Treasurer, she also took special initiative to gather any and all materials needed for volunteers to work the BBQ Hut at the Kiwanis Ogeechee Fair in October, even taking money out of her own pocket to do so. Even though most would find preparing an event to be daunting and overwhelming, Jasmine took the task in stride and delivered when the club needed her most. When it comes to club activities, Jasmine is always ready and willing to participate in service projects and events, even helping the planning committee to devise the best budget and scheduling for the event. Despite class and other duties, Jasmine came to help with the BBQ Hut the week of the fair and brought a bright smile and warm attitude to the customers as well. As a previous Key Clubber, Jasmine Sherman has continued to promote the K-Family not only by assisting with the club's first recruitment drive but also by reaching out to other Key Clubbers to join Circle K. All in all, Jasmine has continued to amaze her companions in Circle K with her leadership skills and open heart for service, and that's why she was highly recommended to receive this recognition.
