PRESIDENTS LETTER Hey Key Clubbers! (How do you feel?!) I'm so excited to be your president this term! I joined Key Club all the way back in my freshmen year, and now I'm a senior... It's insane. This service year, I want to ensure that every single Key Clubber feels included, seen, and appreciated. You're voice matters in this club, and I want every single one of you to be involved to whatever level you wish to be. Even throughout covid, I will make sure that our clubs continues to contribute to our local and international communities to the highest degree possible. I also want to ensure that not only are we completing community service, but we're also having fun! From bonding games during meetings to fun socially-distant parties, we're gonna have a great time together this year! If you ever want to chat about Key Club or just in general, don't be afraid to message me! I can't wait to see and hang out with all the returning and new members.

In Love & Service, Alicia Ballesteros-Mitchell

EDITORS LETTER Hey Key-uties! My name is Jayla Reyes and I am the bulletin editor for the 2020-2021 service term. Making this newsletter has been a huge learning expierence and it hasn't been easy. The hardest thing has been finding colors that go well together and finding things that look cute. But on another topic I am super excited for this year and to be on the officer board. But to also be able to get to know everyone more (new and old members). Keeping you guys informed about what is happening and will be happening with everything in Key Club (on all levels) in a fun way is basically the whole point of the newsletter. But besides all that I hope you guys like the newsletter and feel free to hit me up. Stay toasty key clubbers!

In Love & Service, Jayla Reyes

I am a Sophomore this year and also involved in the band program at Kentlake. Although, this year is not going anywhere close to planned, I am still excited for this service year! I hope to increase the impact Key Club has on society as a whole. Making a name for Key Club in the community and spreading awareness to what we do as a club and how we help out is one of my main goals! I would also like for Key Club to be a safe space for everyone of all races, genders, sexualities, just everyone in general. I want to spread awareness for minorities and support them in any way I can! There is only so much we can do during this pandemic, but our club is definitely going to make the most out of it and continue serving! Thank you so much and remember stay toasty, key-uties!

If you don’t know me, I’m Mareena Pan, and I will be your Key Club Treasurer for the 2020-2021 term. I started Key Club because I wanted to become more involved in school. Ever since I joined, I haven’t regretted it one bit. Key Club has allowed me to meet some incredible people who have changed my life for the better. As someone who is hard-working and passionate about helping our community, I look forward to meeting all of you so we can work together to help serve it!

Jayla Reyes

Hey key-uties! My name is Jayla Reyes and I am your bulletin editor for the 2020-2021 service term. This is my second year in Key Club, I joined the club last year. Even with my short amount of time being a part of the club, I have enjoyed every single minute of it. I hope to create the same enjoyable experience for everyone who joins. One of my favorite things about Key Club is how much we give back to our community and the amount of friendships we create. Outside of Key Club I’m usually playing Minecraft, getting boba or crying over Harry Styles latest album. But chile- anyways, feel free to hit me up anytime. I hope to become friends with all of you and make this year memorable
