division council meeting

Hi Everyone, We have one month left of this term, so let's give it our all and accomplish all we that we can to reach our division goals that we have set at the beginning of the term! Keep serving and I hope you'll enjoy reading this issue.

P.S. Whenever you get a chance to listen to this month's playlist, I suggest reading

Peacocks,

Welcome to the eleventh issue of the Peacock Press! It has almost been a year since I started making newsletters for Key Club, which also means we've been in a pandemic for a whole year (wow).

However, even through difficult times, we should be proud of all the accomplishments we've completed!

I chose a minimal theme for this month's newsletter, so I hope you enjoy! Make sure to check out our division goals & upcoming events. Also to celebrate the start of March and spring, I have added a section for fun DLT facts. <3

CLUB president

Hey Peacocks, My name is Lana Doan and I currently serve as Helix High School's club President. I've been in Key Club since my freshman year and have grown to love the organization. I know with Covid-19, it's been a pretty difficult term, but as a member of Key Club we've all

continued to make an impact of lives all around the globe.

Helix has definitely been struggling the last few years, and with the pandemic this year has been especially tough.

Although our club hasn't been able ot reach our goals of 25 members, $500 to PTP, or 300 hours served, I'm at least able to say that we've tried our best to keep our members motivated to stay active within the club. I hope to contribute towards this division by preparing next year's officers as best I can and give them my full support while offering any help or answering any questions they may have. Thanks for reading.
