MESSAGE FROM THE EDITOR Dear Key Clubbers, It feels so good to be back in school! After the summer, we have a long year of service and school ahead of us.

In this issue, there will be info about registration, new events, and just a general description of what Key Club is for all you newcomers out there.  Registration starts from the first meeting but you can register after a few meetings to get a feel for the club. We’ll be raffling off our Key Club lanyards for the first several meetings so stop on by and get a ticket!

Having fun at an event? Taking a lot of selfies? Share/tweet them so everyone can enjoy! Also check out our new Instagram: garfieldkeyclub Or send us your images to: garfieldkeyclub @gmail.com
