MESSAGE FROM THE EDITOR Dear Key Clubbers, I hope you enjoyed your three-day weekend. Hopefully you had a chance to thank a veteran for their service to this country! The winter months are upon us, and that means LOTS of new volunteer and social events. I’m pretty pumped to tell you that there will be a DCM this month hosted by Evergreen, and that new volunteer events have been added to the list. I would really encourage you to attend the meetings and sign up there so you can get first priority and avoid the shame of being put on the wait list. Check out the new events for The Eliminate Project: the dance and a benefit showcase hosted by the PNW district. In addition to these district-wide events, there will be ice-skating in December, which will be multi-divisional, and possibly another multi-divisional winter service event as well. I really hope you can make it and meet some new friends! PLEASE COME TO THE MEETINGS! -Reanne Wong
