Arcadia | June Social
What’s up, seals?! On June 15, sealies from D35W met up at the Arcadia County Park for a division bonding! There, we ate ice cream, while also drank boba and participated in many fun bonding activities like hula hoop pass and naming a song that starts with a specific letter. It was super fun and we all enjoyed bonding with each other. We were all happy to see familiar faces, especially ones from other key clubs, while getting to meet new people. In the end, everyone had a smile on their faces, bellies filled with yummy ice cream!

Arroyo | Amigo De Los Rios
Division 35 West hosted a service event on June 8th from 9 AM - 12 PM. The sealies assisted with site care and planting ensuring a safe environment at Durfee. Throughout the morning, the sealies worked on various tasks to improve the greenery and garden at Durfee. They diligently worked to ensure the plants were healthy and maintained properly. Their assistance and efforts in planting, weeding, and site clean-up provided a welcoming atmosphere for everyone who stepped foot on the school grounds of Durfee.
Baldwin Park | Officer Training Conference
On June 22nd, 2024 our officers attended the Finding Nemo-TC event. Where we all learned more about Key Club and our officer positions! It was a new experience for all of us. We felt a little nervous at first but at the end, we had a great time together. Knowing Key Club has spread so far was very informative I truly learned so much about our organization. The presentations in the classrooms were very helpful for us new officers, it gave me a better idea of what I have to do in my position and the details. It was such a hot day!! I felt like I was melting The cool refreshments that were being sold refreshed me. Seeing the Key Club merch be so cheap was amazing, I bought one of my own! The old merch was so adorable, there were many cute designs that they had previously

Glendora | Kidpalooza
Supporting the Glendora Rotary, Glendora Key Club ran the food stand at the city’s Kidpalooza, a beloved summer event! While the community enjoyed the rides, our members ensured a seamless experience for those seeking refreshments and snacks! We didn’t just serve attendees efficiently but rather, supported the community through working alongside one another!
Duarte | Water Lantern Fest
Members of Duarte Key Club volunteered at the LA Water Lantern Festival on June 21st! We were able to help with organizing and setting up for the festival, packing drawstring bags with kits and necessities for people to make water lanterns for the evening. Our members had lots of fun bonding with one another along with members from other schools who participated in this event. We look forward to attending more service events, helping others as much as we can!

Sierra Vista | Retro-Asia
On the 29th of this month we helped set up for Retro-Asia. An event held by APCI, a nonprofit organization dedicated to Asian and Pacific Islander cultural exchanges in local communities. The Retro-Asia pop up was an event celebrating childhood with nostalgic pieces in AAPI heritage. The event was open to anyone of any background who was interested in AAPI culture. The event was a great way for our members to emerge themselves into different cultural groups.
FINDING NEMO-TC
On June 22, 2024, Division 35 East and Division 35 West hosted the first training conference of the year: FINDING NEMO-TC! Officer Training Conference (OTC) is a great way for officers to learn more about the position they were elected into and know how to fulfill their duties At FINDING NEMO-TC, there were workshops that included lessons like officer roles and how to communicate with Kiwanis in addition to general workshops where all officers learned general Key Club knowledge and tips. Everyone had a great time this year, and we can’t wait to see you at the next TC, Region Training Conference!

Introduction
Hi! My name is Ryan Lin and I’m going to be a sophomore at Arcadia High School. I currently serve as Arcadia Key Club’s treasurer and one fun fact about me is that I once bought 96 boxes of banana milk.
What do you enjoy about being an officer?
One of my favorite things about being an officer, especially treasurer and ftc, is being able to maintain the prosperity of such a great division like D35W.
Key Moment
My key moment would definitely be Fall Rally 23’ because it was such a big event and it really put into perspective how many people unite under one for the sake of spirit and service. (and maybe when i opened my acceptance letter on dlt)
