For the month of December, CAMS Key Club attended numerous service and division events. On December 22, CAMS Key Club appointed two delegates to vote on our division’s next Lieutenant Governor at Region 8 Conclave! It was a really great experience for members both new and old to see how the election process works. Several CAMS Key Club members also attended the Operation Jack Marathon where we were awarded an amount of money for having a certain number of volunteers. We also attended the Rose Floats which most of our District was invited to attend. We held numerous services and shifts such as helping with vials, sweeping, scaffolding, and helping prepare roses. CAMS Key Club was also awarded club of the month and had the Division’s Member of the Month, Damian Romualdo.
HMSA
Co-Vice Presidents | Ruth Moreno and Brian Cifuentes
Greetings! For the month of January, HMSA Key Club had minimal events offered to our Key Club members, nonetheless, we started off with a successful year in terms of members’ attendance and participation during weekly meetings. We have been truly grateful to all of our active key club members that have committed to going to our weekly meetings, and those who have been very active with going to volunteer events. So far, we have had 4 meetings at HMSA, in which we have been receiving at least 30 members that have been present. In those meetings, our KeyClub webmaster, Sergio Morales, conducted an HMSA MarioKart 2020 tournament that gained great attention from all of our members, and so far we have two weeks till the winner is announced in the month of February. This tournament took place after our KC meeting ended, and so most members stayed a little longer to take part of it, or to just watch their peers play. Moreover, some of the events we have taken part of are: the first DCM in January and the Super bowl Marathon, in which we helped set up the marathon. In addition, HMSA key club is in the process of getting our own HMSA Key Club Windbreakers, from which we plan on selling and offering to our members. As a result. Though we didn’t take part of many events in the month of January, we are pretty excited to plan out and take part of future events for the month of February and so forth. As of now, we are getting prepared for the 2020 key club officer position nominations, and we are eager to see who our future board members will be, for the betterment and success of HMSA Key Club.
LEUZINGER
President | Jorge Arroyo Vice President | Juan Contreras
During the month of January, Leuzinger Key Club participated in one community event. On January 20th, 2020, nine members attended our Manhattan Beach Clean-Up. At the event our members fit their gloves and grabbed their trash bags and began picking up trash. Our members undertook the task of beautifying the beach from 9am to 12pm.
HAWTHORNE
President | Eduardo Barajas
For the month January Hawthorne was relatively inactive in terms of service but has worked on the club itself. We only attended one service event in the month of January and that was the Gardena Willows Event at a Wetlands preserve in gardena where we helped pick out non native plants that were harming the native plants. We also had a member attend the Winter Smashdown / Gamenight in Lomita where a Smash Bros. Tournament was held along with other games for the division to bond. We then attended the DCM/ Movie night with Green Monkey where we watched the live action version of Aladdin after the DCM. We focused a bit more on how we can try to get member attendance up and came up with a monthly raffle that would take place at our meetings where members earned tickets from things like service events and participation. In the raffle they can win a little goodie bag that has been themed based on the month the raffle takes place. We are also working on trying to hold our own events more often so members from Hawthorne don't have to travel as far. We are also currently trying to find new fundraiser ideas like bowling.
Vice President | Danielle Lopez
Ahoy pirate penguins! In the month of January, Santa Monica High School’s Key Club prepared for elections and DCON. Our board met with our advisor, Michael Flinkman to discuss transportation and funding for our trip to Nevada and we sorted out our forms as well. That following weekend on the 26th, we organized a bake sale with a Valentine’s Day theme to raise money for PTP. We raised around $300 and had so much fun getting to know our members, playing music, and selling baked goods! To end the month, on the 30th, we held a general meeting where we explained each officer position as far as responsibilities and requirements. We announced that elections will be held on February 13th and we took our club picture for the school yearbook. Despite our lack of service this month, Santa Monica has a lot planned for the future!
