1) How has Key Club had an impact on you? I first joined Key Club because well it would look good for college, and because my friends were in it. But after being in Key Club for 2 years now, it impacted me to become more involved in my community. I never realized how much fun volunteering would be. I have enjoyed every single event that I have attended. I would always try to go to every event I can because it makes me so happy to be able to help. I especially love in person events since we can physically actually be able to do something to help our community. I was a bit sad when we had to stop doing in person events, because of covid. But, I am glad that we started doing in person events again. Being able to help people, and our environment is so fun and exciting!
I would recommend others to join Key Club because like I said, IT'S SO FUN!! You can also be more involved in your community by helping others in events, or doing other fun events! You can also meet new people and make some new awesome friends!

JUNE 27 - 30: Members spent these 4 days obtaining their bingos so that they could submit it in order to be entered into the raffle
JUNE 31: "I participated in the thirst week game night because I wanted to connect with key clubbers not only from our division, but also from divisions 7, 8a, 9, 10, and 11. During the event we got the chance to get to know each other better and play games such as Gartic phone and jeopardy. I really enjoyed talking and playing games with other key clubbers. At the end of the event there was even a raffle where 2 winners were selected to win gift cards. Overall, I had a lot of fun and learned a lot about key club and thirst project." - Jenny Huang

Editor's Note Hey guys! Hope everyone is enjoying their summer break. Can't believe July has ended. The month went by so fast. Anyways, I know a lot of AP scores came out and also understand that not everyone got their desired score. This year was already pretty tough so it's totally okay if you didn't get a specific score. Focus on the upcoming school year and enjoy your break! YOURS TRULY, ADHISHREE <3
