Happy September! Wow! The first month of nine or ten is done. Now onto the “ber” months. The first month of school went smoothly and I’m already getting accustomed to my classes. That being said, some abnormal events have happened at my school but it’s fine. Now time to tacklethedauntingpartsofsenioryear.Goodlucktoeveryonethisschool year.

Hi Aqua Apes! I hope the first month of school has been eventful for you all, and I hope that your club rush/ club rush plans are going great. Feel free to contact me on how many sign ups you received! September will be a fun one, September Dares, DCMs, and we’re finally starting spirit preps!
Spirit preps are important to going to FRN, in order to attend FRN, you must attend 2 out of 3 spirit preps. In addition, your school will most likely be hosting your own club spirit prep! And that still counts. There will also be a spirit prep at RTC, I hope that gives you more incentive to go to such a fun event.
Registration for RTC has opened, and I hope to see most of you guys attend. In my opinion, this event was my key club moment, and even strived me to become LTG. I am co-chairing this event, so it would be an honor to see my aqua apes go to an overnight trip that I helped plan.
Hope you guys have a good month! Contact me whenever.
I hope you all had a great start to the new schoolyear!Clubrushhasofficiallystarted,soI hope you all have been very active in your home club, whether as an officer or member. If not, it's not too late! Participate in as many events hosted by your home club and the division, and of course, go to RTC!! You will make so many friends and memories, so I highly encourage you all to go (ask your president for more details). Keep up the good workaquaapes!
I realized I never introduced myself in my first message.(Howsillyright?)I'mNatalieandI'm a junior at Lowell High School. I hope school has started on a good note for you. (Unless you haven't started, then lucky you!) Can youbelievenextmonthisRTC?I'msoexcited for that, it's going to be my first time ever going, and even though I've never been, I cannot wait to meet more of you KEY clubbers there. Again don't hesitate to contactmeatanytime.Seey'allsoon!

The experience volunteering at the food bank was honestly better than I had expected it to be. I had the simple job of helpingtakethecartsoutsideandunloadingthebagstothe pick up area. Although I was really exhausted at the end, I hadsomefunandenjoyedfeelingusefulandcontributing.
ConsideringIhaveneverdonevolunteeringatafoodbank,I was expecting the experience to be an alright event. However, having helped contribute by helping load the food that was being distributed out towards the community, I was so wrong. Although this was one of the most tiring events I've ever done, I felt the most grateful seeing that I have helped contributetowardsservingthosewhoarehungry.

During the month of August, the Aragon officer board began preparing for the club rush. We created spirit sticks, updated our posters, and reached out to old members. We had a successful club rush, as we got more than 75 new sign-ups! During the club rush, we gave out candy and had new members join our remind. We are now preparing for our next meeting in the first full week of September, as we plan to introducetheboardandwhatKeyClubisallabout.
This month, we wrapped up our summer events, which marked our decision to transition to exclusively in-person events to foster a greater sense of community. At the clubs fair, we got over 180 sign-ups from interested freshmen who we entered into a free raffle for a club shirt! Club meetings have stayed very interactive by having guest speakers, including an outside organization, talking to members about volunteering to help special needs kids learn soccer. Other guestspeakerswereKeyClubalumswhoansweredmembers' questions about college and how Key Club continues to help them after graduating! In addition, we have been having more members of the board present slides to keep meetings freshandengaging.Wehavealsobeenpromotingleadership by opening applications for freshman director and reopening committee applications. We had many successful events, including Victorian Days, San Carlos Adult Community Center Hawaiin Luau, and the San Carlos Block party. In addition, at our board and committee meetings this month, we discussed and plan to implement plans for club boba fundraisers at football games, posting more photos of members on our Instagram,andourPTPfundraiserfortheSeptemberSOSP.The boardisexcitedandreadytorecruitandserveclubmembers andourcommunity!
El Camino has had a very productive start to the term! With 150+ sign ups at club rush, we had to move our first meeting to the theater to accommodate for the number of attendees. We've heldafewboardmeetingsentailingourfutureplans for collabs with other clubs on campus and fundraiser ideas to decrease fees for our club members and raise money for charity! We are looking forward to the term and getting our membersmoreinvolvedinthecommunity!
Starting off our new 2023-24 school year, we are so excited to finally begin our journey in providing volunteering and Key Club specialized events with moreofourfellowstudentpeers!Launchingourfirst general meeting, we have introduced the generics of Key Club from what events would be held, what servicesweprovide,andhowthestudentbodycan get more involved with Key Club. Additionally, we have also started planning for two volunteering eventssettooccurinSeptember.Thefirstislocated in San Francisco's Oracle Park aka the home of the Giants, where we will be helping setup, distribute bibs/t-shirts, and overall support the marathon/race that will be taking place there. Our second event is a familiar sight as we will be working with Sunday Streets again to help setup and carry tasks as needed.
