Hello Division 3 South!
I am very sad to say that summer is finally over. Days of binge watching Netflix
shows, going out with friends, and sleeping for hours and hours will now become
days full of homework, study sessions, and more homework. BUT, let us not be sad
but be happy for all opportunities that will come upon this upcoming school
year!
The school year not only means new classes and teachers, but new service
opportunities! It is the best time to rack up your hour logs and serve your
community. Be aware for all the service projects that will come in the future.
To kick of the new school year, on August 23rd, Saturday, Division 3 South will be
holding their August DCM and have their second beach cleanup Santa Monica
Beach. If you were not able to attend Region 7 Beach Clean Up back in July, this
is a great opportunity! Spend a fun day under the sun, while also cleaning up the
coast! Feel free to bring any beach gear, snacks for everyone, and of course, a
friend with you. On August 30th, the division will participate at Run or Dye, Los
Angeles, where we will be setting up, cheering on the runners, and of course,
throwing dye at people. It’s not too late to sign up! Visit the Run or Dye, Los
Angeles page and sign up!
For more future events, be sure to either check out the Division's Facebook page,
Instagram account, or go to your home club's meetings. I am sure the presidents
that serve you will provide you with all the deets.
That is all for now! But before I go, I have a challenge for all of you! The next Key
Club meeting you attend, bring a friend! It is the season for member recruitment
after all! Until next time, Division 3 South!

I joined Key Club my freshmen year of high
school, not knowing what this organization was
truly at first. As I started getting involved with
service events and met inspiring people who
devoted their weekends towards community
service, I desired to take part in this group and
contribute with my effort as well. When I
remember the days we packed rice and
beans for the less fortunate families or the days
when we supported fundraisers that would go
to the Pediatric Trauma Program to prevent
accidental injuries or deaths, I have no regrets
about joining this amazing organization. We all
have a duty to do and as key clubbers, we
make this world a better place. We are a
community of high schoolers who make a
change, and I am proud to be a part of that.

CHERRYN PARQUE EXECUTIVE ASSISTANT
I joined Key Club my freshmen year as a way for
me to start off my high school career. I really
had no idea what this “club” was at first other
than the fact that so many opportunities to
serve my community were being provided. As I
slowly began to attend these service events, I
started to see people so full of life simply
because they were able to help somebody by
using a couple hours of their day. And to that I
think Key Club not only gives you the
opportunities to serve, but also to grow.

YOU JOIN KEY CLUB?
THOUGHTS ON THE SO FAR?
I joined Key Club in the spring of 2012. Eagle
Rock has grades 7-12 so I've been able to
witness key club in action even before
joining. My friend, Kirsean, was president at
the time and always showed me how much
fun he was having, all the friends he's
making, and how dedicated everyone was.
He encouraged me to join as soon as I
became a freshman.
So far, the organization is amazing. From my
experience, everyone is incredible. The
friends I've made, the experiences we've
shared, the roles I've ran for and positions
I've been appointed to serve, the countless
hours I've put in so far, every single detail
and action I've put into this organization
goes without regret. Everything about the
organization makes me feel at home and
welcomed. Key club had helped me grow
as a person, has taught me countless life
lessons, helped me through tough times at
home and school, and overall has just
always been there for me.

RHEYVEN BAYLOSIS SERVICE EXPO COORDINATOR
I joined Key Club my freshmen year
when my sister and her friends
recommended the club to me while I
was looking for some extracurricular
activities to do outside of school.
Thinking back now that I’m a senior, I
still kept to the single reason on why I
enjoyed being a part of this club,
and it was that I cared a lot about
giving back. Besides service, but with
compassion and desire to help
others. Throughout all my four years in
Key Club, I learned a lot from the
training conferences the skills into
what makes a strong leader and
effective communicator, and to me
there is more than that. On a more
spiritual level, I see that the
organization inspires members to
embrace and pursue how far they
can go with limitless potential on
helping and caring for others
together.
CHRISTIAN ACFALLE INTERCLUB COORDINATOR
the organization is amazing.

KEY CLUB 101 WHAT IS KEY CLUB?
Key Club is an
international student-led
organization which
provides its members
with opportunities to
provide service, build
character and develop
leadership.
The core values of Key Club
International are leadership, character
building, caring and inclusiveness.
We are caring and competent
servant-leaders transforming
communities world-wide.
CARING – OUR WAY OF LIFE
YOU are the catalyst
for CHANGE. With
YOU this organization
grows and lives are
changed for the
better!
Members, divisions, and
regions make up a DISTRICT.
There are 33 districts with
their own executive officers
(District Governor and district
board). They, with the
Lieutenant Governors, lead
the clubs in their district.
Each CLUB that has paid its
due is part of Key Club
International. This level is where
most of the service takes
place. Clubs consist of
members, officers and Faculty
Advisors. The Kiwanis Advisor
from the sponsoring Kiwanis
Club is also involved on this
level.
A DIVISION is a grouping of
clubs in an area led by the
Lieutenant Governor and the
assistance of a leadership
team. So often, Division
Council Meetings (DCMs) are
held to discuss of service
events within each club and
volunteer opportunities are
organized for every school
within the division to attend.
A REGION is a grouping of
divisions within an area.
One or two Kiwanis
members are assigned as
Region Advisors who help
the Lt. Governors with the
division they serve.
The 33 districts make up
Key Club International
(KCI). We are led by a
President, Vice President, 11
Trustees, and a passion to
care for and serve the
world.
We are a part of the
(California-Nevada-Hawaii)
CNH District.
Approx. 45,500 MEMBERS

DUES ? WHAT’S UP WITH
WHY PAY DUES: As a member, your dues provide you with the
opportunity to fundraise for projects such as THE ELIMINATE PROJECT and work with
global organizations such as UNICEF to cure deadly diseases that occur around the
world. The benefits don’t stop there; you and your club immediately receive district
support ranging from the help of your Lieutenant Governor and District Executive
Officers to the aid of the adult Kiwanians who support us in every endeavor.
No other groups are on the same level as Key Club in the
opportunities they provide and support they grant to you in your
work to serve your home, schools, and community!
Make sure you pay your club dues so that your club can be an official Key Club and your service hours can be counted for!
WHY THE DUES INCREASE: This past year Key Club
International ran a deficit that required us to draw from our reserves to pay for. Since
this is not a sustainable practice, a dues increase was called for. The currently
approved increase from $11 to $11.50 per member provides enough money to
account for the deficit each year in addition to replenishing the depleted reserves.
HOW YOUR DUES ARE SPLIT: It only costs $11.50 for a life
changing experience! $7 of your dues goes to International – this helps pay for your
membership card, membership pin, the administrative budget, the international
board budget, Key Club magazine, Youth Opportunities Funds, International
Convention, and leadership education! $4.50 of your dues go to the District and this
helps pay for administrative fees, District Board Budget, Key Leader Scholarships,
SLP/PTP Grants, Leadership development education, Fall Rally North, Fall Rally South,
District Convention, and insurance!

For decades, Key Club has
partnered with the March of
Dimes to give every baby a
healthy start. Key Club members
raise thousands of dollars annually
through various programs, including
collecting change, holding dances
and taking part in March of Dimes’
signature event, March for
Babies, which helps raise
awareness towards the illnesses of
mothers and their children.
WHAT’S
DCON?
The annual DCON or District Convention is where people from
all over a district meet to celebrate a year of service with
workshops, dances, etc.
Since 1994, Key Club
has been Trick-or-
Treating for UNICEF and over the years
has raised nearly US$5
million for iodine
deficiency programs
worldwide and HIV
and AIDS programs in
Kenya and Swaziland.
Now, it’s helping The Eliminate Project.
Key Club
participates with
Children’s
Miracle Network
Hospitals by
sponsoring
fundraising events
and participating
in service projects
at their local
children’s hospital.
WHAT’S
ICON?
The annual ICON or International Convention is where people
from all over the world meet to celebrate a year of service with
workshops, dances, etc.

FALL RALLY Due to the District's massive size, two Fall Rallies are held each year; one in Northern California
at Six Flags Discovery Kingdom, one in Southern California at Six Flags Magic Mountain.
Thousands of members gather at each of the two theme parks on their selected day, one in
October, and one in November. At Fall Rally North and South, LTGs and Executive officers are
"auctioned" off to Divisions; the winning Division is able to then spend a designated period of
time with the "purchased" officer. Auction funds and a portion of the ticket sales for both
events go towards the Pediatric Trauma Program.

PROTECT THE CONNECTION Every nine minutes, a newborn baby dies from tetanus. It is excruciating, and a mother can only watch. The baby’s sensitivity to light, sound and contact prevents even the
comfort of her touch. You can help protect that connection. The worldwide Kiwanis family is joining forces with UNICEF for The Eliminate Project: Kiwanis eliminating maternal
and neonatal tetanus. It’s time to do YOUR part.
SAVE A
BABIES LIFE
OUR GOAL To eliminate MNT, more than 100 million women must be immunized to protect them and their future babies. This comes at a cost of roughly US$240 million. Millions of dollars have already
been committed. But a US$110 million funding gap remains. With The Eliminate Project, our goal is to fill this gap by raising US$110 million by 2015. In fact, Kiwanis will become the world’s
largest single donor in the effort to eliminate MNT. Our work will make a profound and historic impact.
On average, US$1.80 can protect a woman and her future newborns from
this horrific disease. Using this average, we will save or protect more than
61 million women and their future babies. We’ll also pave the way for other improvements to maternal and infant health. After all, there are
times when something as simple as a mother’s touch requires a group effort. The worldwide
Kiwanis family has the power to protect that connection.
TETANUS results when
tetanus spores,
which are in soil
everywhere,
enter the
bloodstream
NEONATAL TETANUS: Infants can be infected soon
after birth. The infection spreads quickly and the infant suffers
intense pain for days until it dies. Because of the pain, mothers
are unable to touch or comfort them.
MATERNAL TETANUS: MNT is easily prevented by
giving women of childbearing age a series of three vaccine
doses, which costs roughly US$1.80. This cost includes the
vaccinations, syringes, safe storage, transportation, and more.
HOW CAN WE HELP? Go to fundraisers for Project Eliminate, donate, and
spread awareness for maternal/neonatal tetanus!
Together we can make a difference. sites.kiwanis.org/Kiwanis/en/theELIMINATEproject/home.aspx

The Region 7 Beach Cleanup
was an awesome event! I
haven't seen most of my
friends in Key Club in a while,
and it was fun serving with
them in helping clean up
Dockweiler Beach at this
huge event. When I mean by
huge, I mean by the turnout
of people who showed up! I
formed a lot of new
friendships with people from
other divisions, and the
activities that the Lieutenant
Governors prepared for us
were exciting. All in all, I had
a really great time hanging
out with my ohana at the
beach and at the same time
serve to the community in
helping clean up.
CHRISTIAN ACFALLE HERBERT HOOVER
Every year, our Region 7
Ohana gathers together at
Dockweiler beach and
spends the day cleaning it
up! There was a great turn
out of over 150 key clubbers,
and some new faces that
were brought by their friends
to help us out. The weather
was perfect, not too cold
and not too hot, but plenty
of sun to get the perfect
tan, considering you are not
me and don't forget to put
sunscreen. It was not all
work, as when we were not
cleaning, we got to chat
with our friends, soak up the
sun, and take a swim! All in
all, everyone enjoyed
themselves and the
company they were with.
Definitely a pleasant day at
the beach for all who
came!
MAGY AVEDISSIAN HERBERT HOOVER
On Saturday, July 19, key
clubbers from various
divisions (within Region 7)
gathered at Dockweiler
State Beach for the annual
Region 7 Beach Clean Up!
This event consisted of
cleaning up more than 3
miles of trash,
meeting/making new
friends, and simply enjoying
a day at the beach. To
begin with, for cleanup we
were separated into groups
based on the day of our
birthdays (so those born on
the first of ANY month, were
to form a group).
In my opinion, using this tactic had
seemingly helped out a lot of
people as they were able to get to
know others and not be so
awkward the rest of the day. In
fact, many people left the event
with having at least made one new
friend! To add on, being near the
ocean, having a diverse amount of
athletes, intellects and great loads
of food had made this beach
cleanup one successful
service/social event! I definitely
can't wait for next year and (of
course) hope to see more people
attend!
EILEEN WISCO HERBERT HOOVER
After missing out ever since I joined key
club back in freshman year, I can
finally say I attended Region 7's Annual
Beach Clean Up! Every year, the
divisions that make up our R7 Ohana
come together on a summer day to
not only pick up scraps of trash at
Dockweiler State Beach, but also
spend some quality time with one
another. With this being the very first
time I attended this event, I can say it
was especially memorable! The day
started off waking up super early to
catch the bus so we can all get to the
beach on time. After everyone got
situated, we got split into different
teams, mingled/introduced one
another, and finally got to business.
Two hours and dozens of trash bags
later we successfully got the job done!
Before having the rest of the day to
ourselves to eat, swim, play volleyball,
etc., everyone got together for the
Region 7 group photo. Our beach day
ended with yummy s'mores around a
bonfire and reflecting on the new
memories made on the bus ride back.
All in all the day was filled with good
vibes and good company. What a
great way to serve the community and
have a blast at the same time.

REGION 7 BEACH CLEANUP
JULY 19 @ DOCKWEILER STATE BEACH 9AM – 6PM
On July 20th, I attended a community event, The Great Root Beer Taste-Off. As a volunteer, we
were supposed to help set up during one shift and/or pour sodas during another shift. I went for
the latter of the two and found that it was more fun than it seemed I really enjoyed how it was
so crowded and busy most of the time; it helped pass the time and was more fun. It was also
really enjoyable to see the little kids so excited to have so much soda and the adults on a
sugar high like the children. I also liked meeting Key Clubbers from other schools. They were
really nice and great to work alongside. I think it was nice to see the community
come together like that in such a relaxed and happy environment. They
gave us cups to sample some of the different root bears and it was really cool. They also gave
us cute little hats that advertised that sponsor of the event and the event itself. Overall, it was a
great event and very successful, based on the amount of people that attended and the
happiness you could see on their faces. I really enjoyed this event. Meeting new people and
interacting with the community was a bundle of fun. If we can volunteer for it next year, I’m
definitely going again.
MIRANDA FLORES-TIRADO JOHN MARSHALL
“Our president Jeffrey and I volunteered at Galco's Soda Tasting Event just nearby our school.
The event was held for all the residents of Highland Park to enjoy the different sodas. It was a
great experience! Although I live fairly close to the store, I had never been inside. Volunteering
there was a great time to explore the store. When Jeffrey and I arrived, we were given different
tasks to align and separate the different root beers, sodas, by their brand and setting up tables,
chairs. Seeing members from other clubs was nice too! It was so cool to be in the store that I've
always passed by every day in the past. I wasn't able to stay for the actual event, but I'm sure it
turned out great! I hope other members can volunteer in this event another time!”

Watch for Babies was a Key Club/movie fundraiser hosted by Eagle Rock High School's (ERHS) Key
Club and our very own in an effort to raise money for the Eliminate Project. It was definitely an
enjoyable experience since Marshall was in charge of selling pizzas, popcorn, and drinks. Who
wouldn't like to sit and enjoy a movie while devouring a delicious slice of pizza and a crisp, cold
soda? I know I would! In addition, it was a great opportunity for me to meet with other Key Club
members from other high schools and catch up with old friends was great as well. Towards the
end of the night, we managed to raise more than we had hoped for and knowing that the
proceeds will go towards a great cause makes my experience at the Watch for Babies all the
more worthwhile.
SREYMICH LACH JOHN MARSHALL
It’s the feeling you get when you help people with something simple that puts a smile on their
face, it’s the amazing feeling you get when you sit in a classroom full of people being part of the
Key Club and planning the events to help the outside world. “Key Club is not about just
doing community service or filling out the hours, it’s about coming together to help
the world around us” That’s the reason I'm in key club, because it makes me happy to see all
of us working together on something that will help others. I am new to Key Club and I have been
to a couple of events which made me happy because I knew in that event I did something to
help the outside world. And of course when you go to these events you get to know a lot of
people gather more information about jobs, have fun, laugh and SERVE!
SERA SHAGHOLIAN HERBERT HOOVER
For the past three years, I have had the pleasure of working with a fantastic organization called
Child S. H. A. R. E. and coming back again after a hiatus is an honor and brings back a lot of
memories of fun volunteering activities. Today's event consisted only of moving boxes to a storage
facility nearby, and good thing they needed only a small number of volunteers. From our 9AM-
1PM shift, we made two trips to the storage center with boxes filling up a minivan and a U-Haul
and hilarity ensued when organizing the boxes from inside the vehicles to the small storage space
they were kept in. Incredibly, both locations were stuffy and hot, I even felt like I was going to faint
pretty soon. We managed to move about seventy-percent of the boxes that were at Child S. H.
A. R. E.'s office to the storage room, a joyful relief to everyone that participated. I had a
tremendous amount of fun working there, and I can't wait to help out again with them at their
annual gala coming up in September!
CHRISTIAN ACFALLE HERBERT HOOVER
Attending bridge parties sounds something out of the ordinary, but they're still a party. There were
a lot of booths we helped set up, and in the heat we had to jog back and forth from opposite
ends of the bridge carrying items that the booths needed. I found it to be exciting, because as
long as there were tasks around, someone has to complete it. My favorite memory of the event
was that my fellow members and I sat next to the coordinator's tent and as soon as we returned to
take a break in the shade, the coordinator in the next couple of seconds would be radioed in with
a new task for us. I really enjoyed the event a lot; we worked around the clock trying to finish the
tasks given and saving energy to make it back to the resting spot in the heat.
CHRISTIAN ACFALLE HERBERT HOOVER
The July Division
Council Meeting was
beyond fun and
entertaining! I got to
meet some of the
other Key Clubbers
from the different
schools in our division,
such as Eagle Rock,
John Marshall, and
Holy Family. At first I
didn’t know where
our group was
located in the park,
but then some fellow
Key Clubbers led the
way (they were very
kind). There was food
and laughter all
around, and overall it
was great to be a
part of it. Once the
meeting started,
I couldn’t help but
take pictures of
everyone, whether
they were giving their
reports, or watching
and listening from the
sidelines. Then, Ms.
Jekarl arrived and
was nice enough to
bring us Girl Scout
Cookies after she
joined our DCM.
Afterwards, we had a
water balloon fight,
and although I didn’t
take part in the fun, I
was busy snapping
photos of people
tossing water balloons
left and right. But I
was really happy
about our canned
food/clothes
donations. We had
around maybe ten
bags of canned food
and clothes
altogether! All in all, I
left knowing that we
could still serve while
having fun.

special thanks to this officer for taking
photos throughout the DCM + social
I had a great time volunteering for the Muse/ique
event. The staffers there were very kind to us and
thankful that we were even able to be there and
stay for as long as we did. With it being a hot and
humid day, the staffers also made sure that we
had more than enough water to keep us from
dropping dead. They made sure we had a nice
and relaxing time on a day when I'm sure most of
us there would rather be in our air conditioned
homes. If given the chance, I would be more than
happy to volunteer there again.
CHRIS CHUNG CLUB MEMBER
Volunteering with the Hoover Key Club
was a wonderful experience. It was my first
time participating in an event with them
and it won’t be my last. I enjoyed working
with other students and being able to help
them. At the event, we set up signs and
tables which was actually fun when
working together. After everything was
finished, the place looked spectacular.
Working at this event was a fun way to
help the community and meet new
people.
JESSICA CHUNG CLUB MEMBER
The Hoover High Key Club members spent a very
productive afternoon setting up for Caltech's
Summer of Sound event. We first nailed signs to
wooden posts and stuck those into the ground.
After that we were assigned various tasks like
arranging the tables' centerpieces and carrying
boxes from the auditorium to the outdoors. The
advisors were really nice and seemed to
appreciate our work!
EMILY RAMOS SECRETARY
Muse/ique's Summer of Sound was
definitely an event that had us working to
near exhaustion in the sweltering summer
heat. We hammered signs to the ground,
placed informational cards on numerous
tables, and when on break, retreated to
Beckman Auditorium to rest under the air
conditioner. Besides Hoover's Key Club
that signed up, we worked with members
from Arroyo High School's National Honors
Society. Events that are purely dedicated
to setting up is why I joined a club that
always answers to the call to service! As
long as there are volunteers that want to
get the job done, there's always fun and
laughter to enjoy at events!
CHRISTIAN ACFALLE VICE PRESIDENT
Muse-ique was one community service
that was tiring yet the outcome of it was
amazing! We were volunteering for 5
hours in the afternoon setting up tables
and signs in the heat. Sweating was a
drag but the bond distracted us to have
fun and the reason why we were there. I
hope there are other events like this or to
help them more in the future!
MARVIN DOLLANO HISTORIAN
Every summer, a group of musicians, dubbed as a
"counter conventional orchestra" play amalgams
of songs ranging from all genres to an impressively
large audience. The concert is held at our
neighbor city, Pasadena, right inside the California
Institute of Technology. We, as Key Clubbers,
came in a couple of hours before the show to help
with preparation for seating, decorations for the
tables, and adding signs to direct guests to certain
amenities. It was uncomfortable to work with the
heat, but as the day progressed it began to cool
down. All in all, it was an enjoyable Saturday filled
with service.
MAGY AVEDISSIAN PRESIDENT
HOOVER HIGH AT THE MUSE/IQUE
SUMMER OF SOUND
“Key club is one huge family with people
from different cities and schools. It's a very
heart-welcoming organization with lots of
positivity. Not only are you helping the
community but along the way, you'll meet
new people and go to new places. Key
club offers a lot of opportunities that are
hard to pass up. I think Key Club is a fun,
social, and educational place that can
spark a new light in everyone.”
RAYMART QUIDILLA EAGLE ROCK
“I was a little skeptical about Key Club when I
first heard about it, but I’m really glad I’m a part
of this wonderful organization. It really opened
my eyes about being a family and helping out
our community. You also meet a ton of new
people, which is always great to look forward
to. The events we go to have been really fun
and never a dull moment, especially with
friends. I've been to new places that I never
been before which is really great. Key Club is
just full of positivity, good vibes, friends, and
hard work. Let's just say I love Key Club.”
