Hey Guys,
When you upload new pictures try and tag as much of the key clubbers that are in there (you can do that by going to our home page, clicking the picture and then typing in their names). However, if you see a name/person that goes untagged please tag them. :]
New Car Wash Pictures were added.
Got pictures from a key club event? Go add them.
Our photobucket information is on the resource page :]
Have a good day.
Your Editor,
Alexia

Charity of the week: N/A
Hey Guys!
Okay I just spent 3 hours, THREE HOURS, writing the best charity of the week ever. Actually it wasn't about a charity, but it was about Kiwanis International. I wrote about the government and who holds what position, how we effect the world, etc.
And you know what happened?
Blogger had an error and deleted all of it. And it wouldn't save any of the drafts like it usually does!
So since I do not have three more hours to write it AGAIN, I'm sorry but you all will have to wait for next week. Hah, I know I can hear all your disappointed sighs.
Until then, Have a great week!

The Beach Banquet is Canceled!
Hey Guys!
Here is a text from our LTG Kay Manuel about the cancellation of the banquet!
"Dear Beach Party Attendees: Due to the high chance of thunderstorms tomorrow, and the rain this week, the CSH Divisional Function will be canceled until we reschedule it in August. I am sorry for the late notice, and please inform everyone you have invited. Again, I apologize for canceling our event due to bad weather."
Though this is unfortunate, look on the bright side. Now you have even more time to convince others to come! Raise the attendance and raise the money we fundraise for CSH. It'll be a fun time.
Can't wait :)
Have a great week!

Mini Mini Post: CSH, Clean Communities and Sign ups.
Hey Guys!
Clean communities (9-10:30 @ the corner of natures blvd and brewers bridge) and our monthly CSH visit (3:30 - 5:30) is tomorrow! Be there if you signed up!
PS: (this is a personal note from me, Alexia, howdy!) Next time you all sign up for an activity make sure you can come. Of course you can be excused sometimes (you know, emergencies and stuff) but when A LOT of people drop out last minute well it screws us all up. Anyway, please try and remember this next time :) thanks! (And again, please don't think I'm being harsh - I'm just saying in general)
Double PS: Please answer all texts and or forms of communication that we send to you if it pertains to an event going on that you signed up for. We like to confirm that you all are coming to events and if you don't confirm, well we are at a lost because then we don't know if we need replace you.
Sorry if I'm coming on strong, but I would just like to point out those two things. :)
Have a goodnight guys!

Charity of the Week: Charity Walks.
Hey Guys,
All of you know that the JLHS Key Club is planning a charity walk of our own, so today I wanted you all to be a bit more informed about charity walks in general.
How does a walk raise money?
There is a crazy amount of ways charity walks raise money. For example:
1. Registration: Usually there is a fee of some sort. It can go from as low as $5 to as high as $100.
2. Pledges: In some cases, before the event, walkers are asked to get their friends and family to pledge a certain amount of donation. Then they collect the credit card information, etc.
3. Donations: At the event you can usually donate more if wanted.
4. Sponsorships: Certain corporations will pay to donate or pay to have their logo on a poster near the event.
Do you have to walk?
You can volunteer to help run the event, and you can help by donating money period. You don't have to walk.
Can I run?
Yes. In fact there are multiple of walks were you don't necessarily walk!
There are:
1. One day walks.
2. Walk-a-thons (where you walk a certain amount of miles for a longer period of times - usually days)
3. Runs.
4. Sprints.
5. Relays.
So no matter what your style is, you can still participate.
What are some examples?
Good question! Here are only some of the many walks that go on: (all sites can be found of http://www.thewalkingsite.com/)
American Heart Walk
Race For The Cure
Avon 2 Day Walk
Breast Cancer 3 Day Walk
24 Mile Walk for Life
MS Challenge
MS Walk.
Jingle Bell Run/Walk
National Kidney Foundation Walk
Leukemia Society Light the Night Walk
And there are so much more!
What do I need to remember while walking?
Two things!
1. You are helping the charity. Sometimes people get carried away and walk for the glory. Walks only have one winner and that is the charity that is being benefited.
2. Relate you physical fitness to the walk you choose. Do not pick the 60 mile, 3 day walk, if you cannot achieve the necessary physical output.
Can I see a video about walks?
Of course you can! :) Some of the videos are PSA's while other's are recaps of walks in general. I hope you like them :)
Anyway, I hope you realize the importance of our walk and I hope it's gotten you a bit more excited about the idea :)
Have a great weekend guys!

Mini Post: Dining to Donate and PCM!
Hey Guys!
My computer is finally fixed, so you can all calm down your Key Club information is here! :) (I know all of you are so dedicated that you were lost without these updates! Hah!)
Anyway, thanks to all who went to the Dining to Donate. I'm not sure how much we fundraised but, any amount helps!
And, the Presidential Council Meeting, was great today. For those of you who do not know, a PCM is where the boards of our district meet with our LTG, Kay Manuel. (PS: Thank you, again, for awarding me with the District 6 Officer of the Month award :) )
Anyway, that is all that happened in the span of days my computer was broken.
Yay!
Have a good night guys.
By the way, for all who received your AP scores today, I feel for you!
Hope you did great :) Hahah.

Corrections
Hey Guys!
I don't know what happened but it seems like some of you believe there is a general meeting tonight. No, there is not. There is the Dining to Donate, and then there is a Board Meeting.
Here's a little run down:
General Meeting = Everyone.
Board Meeting = President, VP, Treasurer, Both Secretaries, Editor, Historian, LTG (or any member of the district board that chooses to come), Scalzo, and Ms. Corman. (AKA: The board :) )
Sorry if there's a little bit of confusion.
As for the Dining to Donate it is not mandatory so for those of you who have Doctor's appointments, etc. It's fine. Dining to Donate is just a way we can raise money for our club and especially for the walk.
It is very suggested you come. :) But if you can't, it's fine. No pressure. :)
Hope I helped correct some of these problems that seem to be swarming around!
Have fun at Dining to Donate tonight, Hope to see you there!

Mini Post::: Dining to Donate and Cameras
Hey Guys,
Here's just a small thought. As you can see our picture portion of our site is lacking a lot, and during the summer we have a couple of great picture opportunities.
So here's the deal,
Please bring a camera to the Dining to Donate thing and take a picture of you, or a group of your favorite key clubbers and post it on the photobucket account (which the username and password are on the resource page!)
This isn't the only place to take pictures too. So at meetings, car washes, CSH gatherings, anything.
Please and thank you - you don't know how much that would help!

Mini Post:: Computer Failure
Hey Guys!
My computer failed, so I'm borrowing my mothers! :) Anyway, I most likely won't be able to post the charity of the week, the agenda, and the dining to donate posters.
I will probably be able to update the calendar with the events really quick, but all the meeting information will be posted in a couple of days when my computer is hopefully fixed :)
Maybe sooner, I don't know what the computers will do.
Hopefully my computer gets virus free soon! But when it does, everything will be posted!
Sorry for the inconvenience.

Mini Post: Newsletter.
Hey Guys!
So I finished the newest edition of the newsletter and I have been trying to get it into pdf form so I could show you all on the blog. But of course, as you all may have read in previous posts, pdfs just don't want to work with me.
So here's the deal: I will of course continue my struggle against Adobe PDF's (and it will probably end unsuccessfully). However, if you want to read it, comment this post with your email and I will send it to you right away.
PS: If you are worried that other people will see your email, don't be. I moderate all posts, so if you post a comment with your email, I will delete it.
Okay, that's all.
Hope your all having good summers and your all getting good tans! :)

Charity Of The Week: Cancer Charities.
Hey Guys,
This past week we have been hit with multiple celebrity deaths. One being Farrah Fawcett, who died from Cancer. Because of this recent tragic loss of an idol, I believed it was suitable to replace the Charity of the Week, with a post of recognition.
We all know how horrible Cancer is, whether it's from personal experience of losing a loved one, to learning about it in our science books. That is why everyone comes together and tries to put a stop to it.
There are many charities that try to find cures, and help people who are effected by it - so today, this post is for all of them.
Here are some examples of cancer charities:
American Cancer Society
http://www.cancer.org/
The Valerie Fund
http://www.thevaleriefund.org/
Susan G. Komen For The Cure: (Breast Cancer)
www.komen.org
The Simon Cancer Foundation:
http://www.thescf.org/
Prevent Cancer Foundation:
http://www.cancerprevention.org/
Nation Brain Tumor Foundation:
http://www.braintumor.org/
Interested in finding more charities? Check out - http://www.cellscience.com/CANCharities.html which is a national listing of cancer charities and societies all over the world.
For YEARS people have tried to spread awareness. For example, this PSA is from the 1960's!
And this one - more recently.
Recognize some actors/activists? That's because EVERYONE is joining this movement. This PSA includes Christy Turlington, Tilda Swinton, Elle Fanning, Tobey MaGuire, Christina Ricci, Susan Sarandon, Morgan Freeman, Mayor Bloomberg, Keanu Reeves, Casey Affleck, Lance Armstrong, Jodi Foster, John Williams, Sidney Poitier and the Stand Up To Cancer team!
Stand Up To Cancer is a huge organization who has the support of politicians, buisness men, celebrities and us!
That is why our walk that we are planning is going towards Stand Up To Cancer! That's right, what we do will help them!
We can always help. We are the difference we want to see.
Never underestimate that.
This post is deticated to Farrah Fawcett.
In her memory, stand up to cancer.
We all can.
Have A Good Summer.
