CALENDAR & EVENTS 014-015 OFFICERS SCRAPBOOK DCON 2014 MESSAGE FROM THE EDITOR Dear Key Clubbers, I hope you’ve all had a great midwinter break so far. Hopefully all of you are back safe and sound to read your weekly bulletin and participate in Key Club event! During last week’s meeting, we concluded our elections for the 2014-2015 officer board, and took pictures for the yearbook. Read on to find out who your officers are for next year, if you haven’t checked the updates already! On Friday, the current officers had an officer meeting to discuss a few things. First of all, all new officers will get officer training of some sort, with fundraising committee applications and selections to follow preceding DCON. Furthermore, we have goals to become a much more active club in the next Key Club term. We are currently planning on doing a service project for hospital children, such as making blankets or putting together coloring book and crayon kits for the kids. Things will definitely get moving after DCON, so definitely stick around to be a part of it! Reanne Wong
