Historian Eyubed Balcha’s take on: Big Game 10K “The Big Game 10k was an amazing event. It was at a unique venue; at a duck pond. We had lots of fun serving the runners. We gave them snacks and drinks. In addition, we had talented live performers. This event was definitely among the best.”

Note from the Editor
Hello, Reader! So much good change has occurred for Valley Key Club, and with this good change, a brilliant future is in sight. The Valley Key Club 2015-2016 executive elects are more than capable of carrying on the legacy that Valley Key Club 2014-2015 has created. I am so proud of each and every single one of them and I know that they have the ability to accomplish so much more this upcoming Key Club year. Although the 2014-2015 Key Club year is nearing its end, new beginnings are still blossoming. Even with only weeks left in our terms, the Valley Key Club Administration is still working hard to try and bring the best for our membership. There are a lot of events coming up these next couple of weeks, such as #VKCMovieNight, #VKCDodgeballTournament, and the
multitudes of fundraisers and service events that we find and prepare just for you! I hope to see you at these upcoming events, and I hope you’re just as excited for the future of Valley Key Club as I am!
In the spirit of service,
Alissa Dumo
