Favorite color: maroon Favorite quote: "Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which ones to keep." Scott Adams Favorite KC Event: LOCK - IN!!!

Why I love Key Club: Though I'm the quiet one who doesn't do much, I enjoy looking at spirits, and how they're so energetic and positive. They're cool, so that's why I go to Key Club week I wanna be like them someday...

My favorite hobby is art because I enjoy art and I like to be creative! One of the things that I'm able to do during my free time and in projects. I enjoy being anonymous until my art screams for attention and reveals my

Letter from the President

Hey KM Key Clubbers, how do you feel?!

I feel, properly quoting Bryan Raganot, "fantabulous". First and foremost, let me introduce myself. Salutations, my name is Kimberly Ly, your newly-elected club President for the 2015-2016 term. You may all know me and seen me around meetings because I'm the immediate-past Treasurer for the 2014-2015 year. Continuing the legacy of the Ly Family, I'm extremely excited to "fly" through the rest of this school year and not let it "dragon" because I'm sure everyone's ready for summer.

Now, I have to say that it's quite surreal to see me run for Sophomore Class representative or club Treasurer, let alone President. I could never imagine myself being where I am today, seeing how I am awkward (still am), if it weren't for Key Club. The same would probably go to the attendees of the 66th Annual Key Club District Convention taking place just a little over 3 weeks ago.

A weekend full of laughter, fun, innovative speakers and inspiring workshops *wink wink*, taking their service and love to infinity and beyond, KM Key Clubbers (and others) displayed the core values of this fine organization of inclusiveness, character building, caring, and leadership. I'm truly proud of all of you, along with those that weren't able to attend. As a club, we can make a difference in our community by simply helping one another whenever possible. This month, our club has successfully survived PDS (Post-DCON Syndrome), volunteering at the Track Invite and Senior Breakfast. On April 10th, Key Club will be helping the Chambers of Commerce with their gala event. There will be more service opportunities after this, so keep an eye out for any new announcements! I'm beyond ecstatic to be working with the new officer board, along with getting to know more of you personally, and simply making more memories. Also, please, if you have any comments, suggestions, concerns, compliments, feel free to talk or message me or any of the other officers!

In Love and Service, 3 Kimberly Ly

Past Events Review

Mid April consisted of our devoted Key Clubbers working the Kent Commerce Gala at the ShoWare Center. The people who cluttered did such a great job, they personally asked John for Key Clubbers to come again next year! That following week we held the KentMeridian Key Club installation banquet at the Golden Steer. What delicious food they provided. It was just as good as past Key Clubbers (Yen, Vidaul, Marquel, and Calvin) attending the banquet! Near the end of April, Key Clubbers came out to support the sophomore class’ Carnival. We witnessed many people in sumo suits tackling each other that night. The last thing attended to in April was the Division 32 April DCM! On this chilly day at Lake Coulon, Kim, our LTG leaded us with many ice breakers and goal setting activities.

As we started May off with a bang, we started with our favorite… CONCESSIONS! On this 80 degree day, 5 Key Clubbers decided to stay in a tight spaced room and work concessions for the Junior Olympics. As we saw the elementary school track kids come and go, we stayed at concessions and sold our butt 4 off!
