Club of the Month

Jinny Tran - Santa Rosa

You have

been working very hard these

past few weeks! Your

dedication for volunteering in

Cross Country and getting

other officers together for the

training conference took time

and effort. Thank you so much

for taking some time off to and

putting it into Key Club, and

getting back to me when

necessary. I hope that you

continue to show your

commitment and support as an

epitome for others!

Serena Uppal – Montgomery

Great job Maria Carrillo! I am very proud of you with the service that your club has

performed. I am very pleased to hear the volunteer hours related to helping people, and a

hospital! Keep up the great work and don’t stop on serving your community! I hope to see

more of you all in our division events!


Thank you

for attending many events that

our division holds! I know that

you are constantly informing

Your communication is always

consistent, and your

am eager to do a visitation for

your club! Good luck with the

rest of your year serving your

club!

Fall Rally North

For those of you who do not know what Fall Rally North is, it is a rally that is held in Northern California

at Six Flags Discovery Kingdom. Thousands of members gather together on the day to hang out, cheer,

mingle and auction off LTG’s and Executive officers! All the money from Six Flags and the money that

was auctioned off goes towards Pediatric Trauma Program (PTP). For more information regarding the

program, please refer back to past newsletters or to :

cnhkeyclub.org/downloads/Projects/publications_PTP_1213.pdf.

My experience at FRN was ineffable. When I first attended, I not highly educated what KEY Club

was exactly about. I always thought FRN was just a small gathering with people do go on rides and

befriend them. I was definitely wrong. I was in awe seeing the amount of people I saw at FRN. Everyone

was so kind, friendly and enthusiastic. I do not regret attending FRN because this event awakened me to

see KEY Club on another level. From “How do you feel?” to “Putting some booty in it,” I am definitely

ready to feel the GOLDEN energy and hot weather that FRN always brings. I really do hope that everyone

will be able to attend this amazing event. If you love making new friends, enthusiasm, KEY Club, people,

roller coaster, saving lives, and hanging out, then this is definitely the even for you to attend!

Piner High School

I can't wait to go to Fall Rally because last year I heard it was a lot of fun. The spirit is really high and every division is there. It seems like a great way to meet people all while having fun. I can't wait to show off D32 spirit! - McKenzie Martin Rancho Cotate High School After hearing all the golden stories from my friends, I am so excited to attend Fall Rally North for the first time. I’m really looking forward to meeting my fellow key clubbers and seeing all the key club spirit. I can’t wait to attend because I am sure it will BEE just as amazing as I have heard. I hope to see my fellow dinosaurs there. - Karissa Mills Piner High School Fall Rally was amazing the year I went! I've never seen anything like it. The spirit there was so insane it made everything so much fun. I can't wait to go again. - Jinny Tran Santa Rosa High School Fall Rally was an exciting event. I have never experienced any event with so many smiling and spirited teenagers. This is something a Key Clubber can't miss and will probably regret not going to. Key Clubbers will see how amazing Key Club is and how much we contribute to the community. You will be full of energy and dino-pride after this. - Steffanie Tran

Piner High School

Even though I don’t enjoy roller coasters, attending the rally was great. I did not expect to see so

much spirit and excitement, but when I did it was incredible. Everyone was full of energy, and the

number of Key Clubbers there was amazing.

-Vicky Nguyen

Piner High School

Fall Rally was the highlight of my Key Club adventure last year. Thousands of Key Clubbers all

with such amazing spirit make you feel part of something huge. I learned how key club is not just some

school cub; it is so much bigger. I loved the rally and seeing all the other divisions decked out in their

gear. I hope this year we can make D32 stand out in the crowd with our gear and spirit!

VI. Adjournment

On Saturday, July 20th, our Division 32 Key Clubs came together in Fort Bragg to do a beach Clean-up. For most of us, it was a pretty long drive to Pudding Creek Beach where we assisted with the clean-up. When we got there it was surprisingly not as dirty as we thought, but looks can be deceiving. We all split into groups, grabbed a pair of gloves and a garbage bag and set off to work. Everyone seemed to be having a good time. It was a great day for being at the beach. It only took us about an hour to get the beach clean. It was good to know that not a lot of people littered at that beach. When we were all done we all had a picnic and we all had a great time. All in all, it was a great day at the beach, We cleaned up all the garbage so that others could enjoy a more beautiful environment, and we all had fun doing it. Plus, it was nice to bond with other Key Clubbers from our division. ~Alayna Lorence

Pediatric Trauma Program


What It Is

How We Help

The Pediatric Trauma Program

helps to train pediatric doctors, nurses, and

first responders, purchase medical supplies

and equipment, and create outreach

programs to educate the public on

preventative and safety measures. PTP exists

because accidental injury is the #1 cause of

death in children under the age of 14 in the

U.S., even though 90% of these injuries can

be prevented. Many of these injuries are

caused by lack of proper safety equipment or

lack of education about child safety. The

Pediatric Trauma Program works with

hospitals around the district to change these

statistics. Our division’s nearest PTP

hospital is the Oakland Children’s Hospital

and Research Center.

Our district has committed to raising

$150,000 for PTP. Fall Rally is one of the biggest

PTP fundraisers of the year. Our division is asking

that ALL CLUBS THAT ATTEND

FALL RALLY BRING AT LEAST

$150 FOR PTP to help us reach our goal.

Besides just fundraising, Key Clubbers can also

help by spreading awareness and educating the

public about issues related to pediatric trauma.

Going into Kindergarten classes to teach bike or

playground safety are great ways to get involved

with PTP. Our goal is to lower the occurrence of

pediatric injury through education and resources.

Member Recruitment

The KEY to Key Club

As fall rolls around, it brings many things with it: the start of school, the changing of leaves, and a new Key Club season! This means that a whole new class of potential Key Clubbers is ready to be informed, inspired, and recruited—by YOU! These students may never have even heard of our club and the amazing work we do, so it’s your job to fix that!

You can recruit new members in many ways. Most schools have a Club Day, where your club can set up a booth and charmingly persuade passing students that Key Club is the organization for them by talking about all of the possibilities a future with Key Club holds. You can also talk to the students in your classes about joining, and bring it up in conversations. Your club can even talk to your school about making announcements or hanging flyers encouraging students to become members. Whatever you do, just get the word out about how wonderful our golden club is, and the future dinos will surely come swiftly to attention! Good luck out there, Key Clubbers!

Leadership Opportunities

Membership Orientation

Want to Learn More About Key Club?

Membership orientations and conferences are a golden

opportunity to get to know Key Clubbers, learn about the

ohana we have in the Cali-Nev-Ha district, and come

together to celebrate our passion for service. Membership

Orientations are held at the beginning of the new year to

Welcome new Key Clubbers into a world of compassion and

service.

Want to Hold a Membership Orientation?

Things to Think About:

What to Mention: Key Club not only is a way to earn

copious amounts of service hours, it is an opportunity

to become involved with the community.

Personal Experiences: How have your experiences

shaped who you are today through Key Club? Tell

these to your members, this is what keeps them

coming back.

The Event Itself: Where should you hold it? A classroom

during lunch, a friend’s house, a local rec center are

great ideas. Familiarize the structure of meetings with

the new members, as well as reciting the pledges and

announcing upcoming service opportunities.

Extras: Be sure to bring food, have lots of icebreakers

planned, and paper to write down golden ideas for

the upcoming year!

Hershey’s® Track & Field Games Hershey’s Track & Field Games is a great way for Key Clubbers to host their own event and help children in their

community BEE more active! From ages 9-14, children in your town can participate in fun games and activities, celebrating

the achievements of youth around the country! If your club has a Builder’s club or K-Kids, this is a perfect opportunity to get

to know them and provide them with a day of fun! To participate, you must first find an advisor or a Kiwanis member to help

organize the event. Then, you must register the on the Hershey’s® Track and Field website. Don’t forget to promote! Get as

many families involved as possible for playing and having fun. Ask your fellow Key Clubbers to volunteer at the event, and if

you have any questions, feel free to email those at HTFG.

Registration for the 2014 event must be received by March 28, 2014.

The events: meter dashes and relays, including 50-meter

Dash for children ages 9-10 and 100-meter dash for

Ages 11-12. Also, there are softball throws and long jump

Offered.

Why?

Organizing an event that helps combat the lack

Of activity across children in America can help your Key

Club bond and have lots of fun at the same time. Many

Children who have participated in these events nation-

Wide have competed in the Olympics as well! This event

Can provide a wonderful experience for children as well

As help them discover their inner talents!
