On Sunday, November 17th 2024, I went to the November DCM for Key Club at Shasta Park. It was very cold thatdayandthereweremanypeople lying on the park’s grass talking amongst themselves. At first, I was nervoustobeapartoftheevent,but our amazingDLT made it very easy to feel included. The groups games of bingo where we had to interact and take pictures with different clubs from otherschoolshelpedcreateasenseof connection between each club. The community service activities of decorating cookies, making cards, and coloring pages was very fun and entertaining! At the end of the DCM session, we had one volunteer from each school enter into a pie eating contest! I asked my club president, Jisoo, if I could volunteer. She allowed meto,and Iwonsecondplace!Itwas my firsttime eating pumpkin pie, and regrettably, I couldn’t taste much as I was focused on winning. There was also a bake sale happening at the DCM to raise profits for PTP with delicious baked goods. Overall, it’s clear to see going to DCMs is not just forinformationalpurposes, but to also build a stronger connection within your Key Club community with fun workshopsandactivities. LC Moors
