CALENDAR & EVENTS TAP PROJECT SCRAPBOOK KC PEN PALS DCON 2014 MESSAGE FROM THE EDITOR Dear Key Clubbers, Welcome back to school!

Are you excited for DCON yet? There are only 36 days left until DCON 2014!

Hopefully all of you have completed your 30 or 60 required volunteer hours by this week because this week is the final deadline. Also before I forget, you should buy any necessary clothing for DCON early if you can. You are required to have business attire and semiformal attire, and since it gets kind of hectic during prom season, get your stuff EARLY. You’ll be kicked out of the caucus room or whatever if you’re not properly dressed.

Emily has posted the application for fundraising committee on the group page! We are looking for a wide range of people and skills to contribute to next year’s committee, so feel free to apply no matter what. The applications are due by the end of next week, March 7th. It’s only about a page and shouldn’t take you that long. Email it to garfieldkeyclub@gmail.com or hand it in to Emily Wong or Cindy Lam. SENIORS, YOU CAN’T APPLY. Reanne Wong
