Battle Buddies
Key Club officers were asked to assist Veterans’ at a tour in Washington D.C. Key Club officers Mandy Chan. Alex May0, Naa Quaye, and Christianna Pepingco served as “Battle Buddies” to the veterans and made memories that would last a lifetime. Thank you, veterans, for all that you have sacrificed for our country!

Fall Rally! On October 11, more than 2,000 Key Clubbers across New Jersey gathered at Six Flags to kick off the new service year. This year’s theme was “Oh, The Service You’ll Do!”, and the District Board dressed up as Dr. Seuss characters as they shared this year’s goals. Our very own Mrs. Meissner spoke as the Keynote speaker and shared a message about hunger and how her job as NORWESCAP director helps those in hunger each and every day. The day was overall a success as Key Clubbers bonded with each other.
