Walk to Cure Lupus

~Written For Key Club President Kelly~ The Walk for Lupus was an extravagant experience. It was the third Key Club event I attended in 2018. I was able to bond with the members of my school as well as talk to some people from other schools. The walk felt very short because of the long conversations I had with my fellow members. The adults participating were also very appreciative of us being there. Attending this event made feel great as well, because I was able to help a cause that I believed in. Everybody there was very enthusiastic about the event and the cause. Key Club is a great organization and the people in it are very considerable with the way they attended this event. I think I will enjoy attending more events in the near and further future.-Xikai Ma, member

My Key Club Walk to Cure Lupus was overall very fun. I got to meet new people and talk to others. As a plus, we got free food and merchandise. We walked for a very long time and it was very tiring, but I am glad I came to this event. In the future I plan on attending more events that provide benefits to other people and doing as much as I can for others.-Chris Yang, member

Last Saturday, I attended the Walk to Cure Lupus. It was an experience of struggles and fun. I met a lot of key club members both from my school and from other schools. When we arrived to the Intrepid Sea, which is the location of where the walk took place, there was food and drinks provided for us. All the food was delicious! After we finished eating, the walk had begun. I had a poster that said " Bayside H.S.K.C. Walk to Cure Lupus" to hold up, but since, I didn't bring any gloves; my hands were freezing. Adding on to my struggles I made myself hold up the poster throughout the entire walk. My shoulders were sore after and my fingers felt like they were about to fall off. In the end it was worth it because I spend time with my friends and help raised awareness to a horrible disease that there's no cure for. I would love to do this again next year, but I'll have to remember to bring gloves next time to provide protection against the cold weather.-Jonathan Yu, member
