1. Personal Integrity Doing the Right Thing
KEY LEADER Key Leader is an amazing leadership training ability that all Key Clubbers need to go to at least once, if not multiple times. It takes place over the weekend in October from the 16th-18th at Windy Peak just out of Bailey, Colorado. Throughout the weekend Key Clubbers participate in leadership and character building activities while making new friends from schools right around your own. You can register now for a life changing experience and a weekend packed full of memories. My favorite part about Key Club was writing a letter to myself which Key Leader then mailed to me a little while later. Also, once you have attended one year, you have the opportunity to be a student facilitator the next year.

MAKE YOUR CLUB VISIBLE AT YOUR SCHOOL OUR DIVISION NEEDS A MASCOT! Some of the other divisions in the Rocky Mountain District have a mascot to unite their schools together.
