What’s new?

MESSAGE FROM THE EDITOR Dear Key Clubbers, Officer Date Night is this Friday—continue bidding to go with the officer of your dreams!

Peppermint bark sales have been doing well! If you want in on the action talk to an officer to help us sell. The more the merrier AND you get half the hours you helped to sell (which go towards DCON).

T-shirt designs will be due January 1st so if you plan to design one, get them in soon!

ALSO: Don’t forget to get DCON forms in by THIS FRIDAY!!! The cost will be $120 for early bird but the price will go up after this Friday so hurry up! You can pay at a later date but we really need those forms in!

Don’t forget to sign up for events this winter break!

As always, thanks for reading the bulletin and try and stay dry folks!
