EAGLE PROJECT
EAGLE PROJECT Eagle Project was an event where Key Club members worked to clean up Schabarum park. Split into groups, some Key Clubbers repainted the park tables, benches, and fire pits while others planted trees. Members were able to help improve this park and the community through their work.

The November DCM took place on the 19th at Baldwin Park where Key Club members from all across our division were able to participate in multiple exciting activities. In celebration of Thanksgiving, Key Clubbers were able to make CARDS TO VETERANS, thanking them for their service and dedication to our country. Since the beginning of his term, LTG Dylan Tran has been promising us with an amusing prize of watching him go bald. Although we didn’t win the spirit stick at
Fall Rally, Dylan still decided to award us with his bald head. “Watching Dylan getting his head shaved is definitely one of my favorite Key Club memories. It reminded me of how much LOVE AND DEDICATION Dylan has for this club and made me fall more in love with Key Club! Thankful for having such an amazing LTG who is so dedicated to all his members!” said JULIE YANG. All in all this event was definitely a success with the huge turnout and the overwhelming spirit!

DAVID LAM “After working as hard as I can getting pic-
tures for our club and division, I feel appreciated for my efforts. But this isn’t going to stop or limit me anytime soon. I know I’ve been lacking at events, but I’ll be sure to pick myself back up and provide the club with memories again.”

KARDS FOR KIDS
KARDS FOR KIDS
At the Kards for Kids event we made cards for the sick children in the hospital that were not able to spend the holidays at home. I believe that by making these cards we were able to make their day brighter. I am glad I attended this event because I got to meet more members from the club and you could probably say that we got closer as well! My favorite part of the event was how creative everyone got with their cards and imagining the kids’ expressions once they receive these wonderful cards!

MILES OF MUSIC
KIIS FM: miles of music
My experience for the KIIS FM Miles of Music was really nice, I got to talk to other Key Clubbers, meet new people and I even got to look around the CBS studio after giving people water who were running/walking for the event. I felt really good being able to help out. My favorite part about it was after volunteering they gave us pizza and I got to eat Chipotle for the first time and that was pretty cool!
