ReLAy FoR LiFE

On June 7th, Relay for Life was held at Miguel Contreras. This was my first Relay for Life in which the division sold leis and walked to fight cancer.

Although the turnout was not as expected, we made a

difference by raising over $100 for the cause. During this event, I became more

aware of the effect of cancer in our society. My favorite

part of the event was the end during the Luminaria

ceremony because it was dark and we were given glow

sticks. We were told to break them to break cancer and

seeing the bright glow sticks a across the track was amazing. There were also paper bags in which there were candles to

pay tribute to those who have been affected by cancer. Also

the division bonding was amazing as we got to know

more about each other. Overall, Relay for life was

memorable, as I grew closer to my Wolf family.

ALEX’S LEMONADE STAND

“FIGHTING

Childhood Cancer,

One Cup At A Time”

Blazing heat and the whirling breeze. On June 20th, I and five other volunteers were caught in the middle of it all. Call us crazy, but we love to volunteer. But besides that, there was one thing that intrigued me and pushed me to go out and be a part of this event--my childhood bucket list item #1: participate in a lemonade stand! We’ve all had that dream to host a lemonade stand around the corner of our street. I got that exact opportunity, but at a larger scale in front of Toys R Us and around the corner of Best Buy and the all-around awesome Costco! Out of all the grateful and entertaining "customers" we had--we didn't actually sell the lemonade, but we received many generous donations--the one who stood out was a family of four: a mother and her three sons. The eldest stole our hearts! "Wherever the ladies are, Joey's there!" their mother concluded. I had just taken my chance to achieve something that allowed me to reach into the past and complete a feat I would've never thought of coming back to. I'd been given a second chance. On this day, I realized that it's okay to look back. To take all the empty forgotten holes of your past and make use of them. To treasure them. To complete them as you are to make your precious, one and only life complete.

OFFICER TRAINING

CONFERENCE

5

This month, I attended the division Officer Training Conference in hopes of becoming a better and more knowledgeable treasurer. Not only was I enlightened by fellow Key Club members at the workshops, I was also able to create new bonds with the people I met and strengthen ties with my fellow officers from our home club. It was truly an amazing event as it provided the opportunity for past, current, and future officers to come together and share their experiences and knowledge to build a stronger Key Club community. One of the workshops I attended was about PTP and MNT, presented by our district governor, Jacqueline Tsang. Because of her powerful presentation, I once again realized how fortunate my friends and I were to live a life full of laughter and happiness and that there is great need to spread this joy to those affected by PTP and MNT. I also attended the treasurers’ workshop, where I met fellow treasurers from the division. We shared ideas for fundraisers and I was given helpful tips that I hope to apply during my term. Other workshops I attended were about member retention, where I learned new ways to keep members interested in our club, and “Key Club 101,” where officers were reminded of Key Club values. The final workshop I went to was on planning successful events and fundraisers, at which the key steps in organizing an event full of service and fun were presented. Overall, the officer training conference was an unforgettable experience and I will definitely cherish the new knowledge I acquired to better my term as treasurer. This event has definitely got me howling louder for service and I hope our future officers will attend next year! -Brian Woo
