BY AUTHOR IN CAPS Club President

Dear Editor or Editors, This is where the president puts his or her message or messages. These messages should include things like club announcements, shout outs, or even just things that they want to rant about.

Remember to give your president an adequate amount of time for this message so it’s meaningful and practical. Do not just go up to your president the day before the newsletter is due and ask for a lengthy message.

Separate the message into paragraphs so that it’s easier to read and overall easier to the eye. No one want to read a giant block of text on the first page so be sure to split it up! You can even go up to the button next to the zoom on top to arrange the text into columns!

Remember to finish off the message with a proper signature! The signature should match or closely resemble the signature found below.

Yours in Caring and Service, Author’s Name 2013-2014 Club President

THE ELIMINATE PROJECT

BY AUTHOR IN CAPS Club Position

You can put an article here about the ELIMINATE Project. Be sure to include things like what your club is doing to help either by either fundraising or how your club is raising awareness. Apart from that, this section can also be used to talk about the ELIMINATE Project overall like what has the ELIMINATE Project has done, what it is doing, and what it will do. You can write about its progress and accomplishments. Another interesting idea is to ask editors from other schools about how they fundraise for the ELIMINATE Project or how they raise awareness.

Be sure to check out updates on the ELIMINATE website, the Key Club International website, as well as the NJ Key Club website. The social media outlets also offer a plethora of information so check out the Pinterest, Twitter, Facebook page, Instagram, and etc.
