A LETTER FROM YOUR PRESIDENT

Hey guys!

It's Micow and I've been very happy with the club in general, attendance wise, vibe wise and how much production we make. Now as the year goes on it'll be super cool to see the growth of the club as more certain events and different positions.

Shout outs to everyone who did the gift wrapping and I just want to tell you guys that everyone did a wonderful job and that all the money raised is going towards a good place so with that being said, everyone have a great time over break.

Happy Holidays and Happy New Years,

~President Micow

A LETTER FROM YOUR VP What's going on sharks?

I think we should take a little time off to give each and every one of us a pat on the back! All of you are so spirited and cooperative and that's what key club is about! Where ever we go, there's always good vibes and you all really show that you have leadership skills. Never forget, you can never have

too much fun while helping our community. Even if there's obstacles, I know you guys will be able to pass through it easily.

Elections are coming up and I encourage all you guys to take a chance and run for a position cause key club is pretty great if I don't say so myself, I hope you all have a wonderful break and happy holidays! Also shout out to all of you guys who volunteered this year, you guys are amazing for working so hard, see you guys next year!

-VP Brittney

A LETTER FROM YOUR TREASURER

Hello sharks!

It is I, Selena and I just wanted to give an appreciation post to those who have been volunteering this month! The holidays are a jolly season but for some people out there, the holiday time isn't easy so shout out to those who have been gift wrapping for Salvation Army. Not only is it fun but it just gives me a warm and fuzzy feeling knowing that we can give back during this time. The holidays is about giving back, not receiving.

Also shout out to those who did Santa Run even though I couldn't make it. I hope you guys have a great break and great end to 2015.

Love, Selena

A LETTER FROM YOUR SECRETARY Yo it's Chhom from the 253.

The holidays can get a bit hectic but just wanted to remind you that every second you give to volunteering it's like sending little messages to the people you are helping. You are letting them know that you care and I am so proud of all of you. I've seen how hard you've worked! All your blood, sweat and tears from gift wrapping went towards helping those who struggle during the holidays, you deserve a pat on the back. This year has been a roller coaster yet even with the ups and downs we as a club have preserved and came out stronger! KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK! Remember to stay humble, kind and just a little weird.

Happy holidays & Happy New Year!

Love Chhom ď Š
