KEY CLUB INTERNATIONAL | CNH DISTRICT | REGION 3 | DIVISION 41 SOUTH
VOLUME II | ISSUE 5 | OCT 2012
Did I scare any of you? But of course not— Lions are the fiercest! And as far as District Treasurer Cannon Joyce is concerned, we are also
the most spirited! Thank you to everyone who was able to make it out
to Region Training Conference (RTC) 2012! I could not have been more
proud to call myself a lion—from the four workshops, to the meeting of
countless new Key Clubbers, to making rain, to meeting District
Treasurer Cannon Joyce and winning the spirit stick, RTC 2012 could not
have been any better!
But our October is much more than just RTC 2012! It truly has been an
event-filled month, from club events to division events … to even
holidays! There are many opportunities to help out our community, so
don’t shy away; ask your club officers if there are any events to help out
with, I know they will have lots to offer! I do look forward to hearing
about all of your October adventures! Halloween does fall on a
Wednesday this year as well … so don’t be out too late on a school
night! And don’t you fret, one is NEVER too old to dress up OR collect
candy! This year, trick or treat for our troops … our Division will be
collecting your Halloween trick-or-treat candy to send out to our Troops
via Operation Gratitude. Also, get ready to Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF!
UNICEF is one of our preferred charities; they are also the group that is
currently spearheading the eliMiNaTe Project!
But don’t forget to also get ready for Fall Rally South 2012! We’ll be
going all out this year! It is truly our Lion quality that will earn us our
spirit stick. Among the district events that we’ll have this year, Fall Rally is
a truly memorable one! With the amount we have raised for PTP, I know
we’ll be buying out district officers as well as other LTGs!
Have a SPOOKY October, Lions!
On the Prowl for Service,
Hannah Tuong Lieutenant Governor

“As a volunteer, I helped out with the Relay for Life event on Saturday and Sunday. On Saturday, I helped out
with putting out the Luminaria bags for the Luminaria
ceremony. It was really touching to see and experience the
ceremony as everyone was bonding over his or hers
remembrance for a loved one who had cancer. On Sunday,
Brittany and I rolled tables as part of the clean-up crew and
we had a lot of fun! The event overall was amazing and it
was an honor to be able to participate!

September DCM This month I went to my first DCM. It was at the Costeau Park
in Laguna Niguel, and it was really helpful. The Lieutenant
Governor, Hannah Tuong, was so helpful and gave a lot of
information. Not only do I now know how important these
DCM’s are, but I also realize how much it will help our club if I
can attend. I am excited for October’s DCM!
Our school’s club rush was this month and we got over
90 sign ups! As a school that is working very hard on
increasing our Key Club membership and spirit, we
were very excited. We are hoping to double our
membership this year, and we felt like this was a great
start!
San Clemente Club Rush
On September 23rd, a group of Key Clubbers braved the cold and dark dawn as they arrived at
their water station alongside the road for the annual Orangeman Triathlon. The Key Clubbers
filled hundreds of water bottles for the athletes that would run by later in the morning. As the
race progressed, Key Clubbers helped the racing bicyclists by handing them bottles of water
and energy gels while screaming words of encouragement. In addition, Key Clubbers worked
hard to keep the roads clean and obstacle-free for the incoming riders. The triathlon raised
money for the Boys and Girls Clubs of San Clemente so the Key Clubbers were happy to spend
seven hours of their day to help out at the event. Overall, I thought event was very gratifying, as
there is no better feeling than providing people with a much-needed cold bottle of water. We
look forward to helping out at the same event next year.

On October 3rd, I visited the San Clemente
Kiwanis meeting at Carrows. It was really fun
meeting all of the members and learning
about certain aspects of our community. The
main subject of the meeting was the RSM
reserve and how it is important in our
community. We talked about nature
preservation, the impact on wildlife, and the
dangers that it faces. I am thankful for all of
the commitment our sponsoring Kiwanis show
towards their youth groups. The San Clemente
Kiwanis showed great hospitality and kindness,
and I felt very included in the conversations
they had. Overall everybody had a great time
talking to each other and discussing upcoming
Kiwanis and Key Club events.
Kiwanis Meeting
Our school held their club rush
for three days during the last
week of September. During
snack time, all of the clubs set up
their tables and booths as well as
advertised to get as many
students as possible to sign up.
Key Club was representing the
blue at the time, and it also had
numerous other Key Clubbers
help out. We got over 200
interested students sign up, and
everyone was so stoked about
joining. All in all, it was super
successful, as we are still the
biggest club on campus!

On October 2, LHHS Key Club held
their first meeting of the school year.
It was a great way to start the year
with over 100 students in
attendance. It was also great to
see old and new, aspiring Key
Clubbers. Everyone was excited,
especially the board. We reflected
about all of the things that we have
done over the summer and we
discussed future events, such as the
Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF boxes, Fall
Rally, RTC, and T=shirts. Hopefully,
this great start will continue
throughout the year!
First Meeting

Relay for life is such a great, inspirational event, and I am so glad
to have been a part of it. Cancer is so widespread that almost
everyone has or has had a loved one affected. It is wonderful for
our community to come together, volunteer, and reassure each
other that they are not alone in this fight. Everyone was so nice
and appreciative, and it was our pleasure to serve.
Joining the Fight
[Executive Assistant]
On October 9th, Trabuco Hills High School had their non-curricular club rush where
Key Club recruited over a 100 new members. Once the bell rang for the extended
snack, lines of students formed to get their name and e-mail down to become part
of the Key Club family. This is a big deal for Trabuco since last year the club only
consisted of 20 active members by the end of the school year. Our goal for our first
meeting, which is on Tuesday October 16, is to leave a lasting impression on the
potential Key Club members by playing fun ice-breakers.

“Joy Jars are for kids in
the hospital who have cancer,
and it’s basically like a “don’t
give up” kind of encouragement
gift which is really rad. This was
actually a challenge because
we had to fit maybe five to eight
toys including socks, rubix cubes,
coloring books, markers, hand
toys, etc. So putting them in an
organized fashion was kind of
difficult, but totally worth it and
fun.
Sally Sim, Member
“This year at RTC, I was able to meet tons of cool
people from all over region 3. The day began with spirit
battles and pizza for lunch. Then all of the Lt. G’s
welcomed us to Regional Training Conference. People
were able tot take workshops that would benefit their
positions in Key Club. Then to end the day, Division 41
South won the spirit battle against the 4 North Otters.
T’was a great day.
Austin Malis, Executive Assistant
Despite the lack of submissions this month, this
newsletter actually turned out very nicely! This
is just like at the spirit battle at RTC: it’s not
about the quantity, it’s about the quality. So
huge thank you to those who contributed!
And for those that are not featured in this
month’s issue, you have until the rest of the
term to!
Senior year would be easy they said… It would
be fun they said… Oh man, October is such a
hectic and stressful month. Shout out to all my
fellow seniors! I hope all is well with your
applications and academic endeavors. It’s
okay, we got this!
Start building up your momentum now
because Fall Rally is in three weeks! Carry
on the Lion Legacy! Become one with the
roar: stimulate that spirit, store that potential
energy, and prepare to release it during Rally
3.
I hope Fall isn’t being a tease with it’s Summer-
like tendencies. The cold weather is creeping
up, so stay warm and stay focused! Stay
ambitious and get enough rest!
Roaring with Service,
