TABLE OF CONTENTS The Official newsletter of Pascal High School Key Club Volume 1, Issue 2 August 2012 1……Summer Page 1…… Summer Social
Summer Social While Key Club’s main mission is to serve the home, school, and community, one of the organization’s other objects is to “provide experience in living and working together” through things such as socials and fun events. The Paschal Key Club officers and members-atlarge upheld both objects of this organization this past month as they had a board meeting and social to plan for the new year and celebrate the last week of summer. With our faculty advisers there, as well as our Kiwanis adviser, we accomplished a lot and mapped out various changes for our club that we hope to implement during the upcoming term. Afterwards, the board members enjoyed eating pizza while hanging out and making posters to

advertise our club. Overall, it was a not only a lot of fun, but also very productive. With all the ideas and projects initiated during the meeting, we have high expectations for this year to be the best yet for our club and hope that ALL of our members will get involved and excited about Key Club by bonding together, working together, and serving together at future service and social events!

KEY CLUB PLEDGE Paschal Freshman Camp Key Club kicked off the new school year by trying to pull in new members. At Freshmen Camp this year, we set up an informative poster and talked about what the Paschal Key Club is. It was a really great way to let freshmen know that our awesome club exists at our school. I personally enjoyed seeing new faces and meeting some underclassmen.
Don't know the Key Club pledge? No worries. Just follow along below: I pledge, on my honor, to uphold the objects of Key Club International; to build my home, school and community; to serve my nation and God; and to combat all forces which tend to undermine these institutions.
KEY CLUB MISSION Key Club is an international student-led organization which provides its members with opportunities to provide service, build character and develop leadership.
I really hope that those who showed interest will become active members and be a part of our Key Club family.

Back To School Evaluation Now that we are back to school, it is no longer the quiet and free days of summer anymore. I find the going back to school fact very distressing. However, there is service out in the world that is yet to complete. So, although going back to school may be stressing, remind yourself that there are others in the world doing service that is much more stressing than our deeds and yet they don’t feel it because of the joy that they have for service.
