MESSAGE FROM THE EDITOR Dear Key Clubbers, Ready or not, school’s about to start in a few weeks! Have you finished your summer homework? Seniors, have you gotten enough volunteer hours for graduation yet? There are only a few more weeks before we’re back in work mode so now is the perfect chance for you to fill up that empty schedule with some volunteering or Key Club bonding time before the school year starts. If you’re in a time crunch to meet DCON or graduation hour requirements and don’t have a lot of time during the school year, now is the time to do it! I hope you had fun at the Seahawk’s game and at the bonfire social with Franklin! Free tickets into the game can’t hurt, right? If you enjoyed one or both of those events, we have the opportunity to partner with the Seahawks to fundraise for foster kids once again. In addition, there will be another summer social TOMORROW. This will be an ultimate Frisbee game, so I expect to see there with your game face on! There’s also an unofficial Key Club bonfire get together being organized on Facebook, so you might want to check that out. Don’t forget: our car wash is on Saturday! -Reanne Wong
