Message from the LTG
Greeting Trojans!!!!
How’s everyone’s summer?? I hope it is full of service
and Key Club!!! Although there is one month left before
school begins, there is still time to plan service projects
and fundraisers! In addition, keep up with regular division
updates and upcoming division events! There are tons of
volunteer opportunities for you to get involved. Ask your
officers for the division updates and invite others to these
events. And do not forget to join our Facebook group and
follow the division Twitter page for the updates also.
Although school is about to begin…… that means
everyone should be preparing for all the amazing Key Club
events coming up. It will be filled with events such as
Pasadena, RTC, Fall Rally, and much more. Especially for Fall
Rally, all clubs should be planning some sort of fundraising
event for PTP (Pediatric Trauma Program) so that Division
05 can show off all the money that we raised! Be active,
consistently be active, and encourage others to be active! I
hope everyone enjoys the rest of their summer and look
forward to an exciting year!
Fighting for a cause,
Eugene Park

2 KEY CLUB District 5 Newsletter
McLANE HIGH
A few members of Mclane Key Club had the honor of attending Clovis North’s PTP Car wash. PTP
is pediatric trauma prevention and it was a great experience to be a part of. At the car wash, we were
able to meet many new members from other schools. It was nice to see many different schools come
together and work as one. At the car wash Mclane helped wash cars and also helped advertising the car
wash by waving our signs around. We hope to be a
part of other service events that are held at other schools.

CLOVIS WEST HIGH
During the month of July, The Clovis West Key Club has been working hard to begin raising funds for the
school year. In order to do this, members came out to help wash cars. The members were highly supportive of
the car washes, and helped provide supplies like towels, sponges, soap, and buckets. Despite the heat that
persisted throughout each and every carwash, the clubbers continued to work hard at both washing cars
thoroughly and holding signs to attract customers.
Overall, the carwash fundraisers have raised over one hundred dollars for the club. This money will contribute to
supporting the club, and lowering certain fees for members. More carwashes will be held throughout the
rest of the summer, and hopefully will continue to be a huge success! Submitted by: Claire Carlson, Clovis West Key Club Bulletin Editor

Runners and walkers from all over the Central Valley came out to celebrate America’s Independence Day by participating in
the Freedom Run. The Freedom Run gives back to the community by funding Tri-This Triathlon Club (a network that promotes health,
fitness, and knowledge for the youth), Candle lighters (an organization that provides support, education, and advocacy for
patients and families dealing with childhood cancer), and Sierra Challenge Express Scholarship Fund (a scholarship that awards five
cross country or track Runners enrolled in a local college). Clovis

CLUB SERVICE
HIGHLIGHTS (cont.)
BUCHANAN HIGH
On July 14, 2012, Buchanan Key Clubbers went up to Wishon Reservoir to help
Kiwanis run their 16th Annual Special Olympics Fishing Derby. The fishing derby has helped raise funds for Special Olympics for 16 years. There was a great turn-out this
year in both fishers and volunteers. Twice as many key clubbers were able to contribute their time this year than last year. We had a great time camping out overnight, parking
cars, and preparing food with our Kiwanis sponsors. We woke up at 3 AM to help prepare and sell the breakfast burritos and coffee. Later in the day, we grilled,
wrapped, and sold hamburgers and hot dogs, along with bottles of soda and chips. All
profits made were given to the Special Olympics. Volunteering for nearly a whole day, we helped setup on Friday, teardown on Saturday, and everything in between.
