About keystone 650Keystone 650 is the collaboration between

two clubhouses:

● Dore Clubhouse - Keystone 200 Bulldogs

● DeLue Clubhouse - Keystone 450 Owls

As we often collaborate together on the four

pillars of academic success, career

preparation, community service, and teen

outreach, together we create

Keystone 650!
