Note from President Adam Newton Hello Key Clubbers, I hope that you've all had a great winter break! Now that we're

back at school and Key Club has resumed, there will be plenty of service opportunities to be had. There will be another middle school dance on January 23rd, Swinging in Vienna on February 7th, and if you need sponsored hours, be sure to help us create trauma dolls in the near future. Also, don't forget to attend the Lieutenant-Governor election rally on January 10th or the January DCM on the 24th. Going to these gatherings is a great way to experience the Key Club

on a greater scale and join in on the spirited side of the club. Happy 2015, Adam Newton
