Also please complete the waiver on the following link: http://www.sausalcreek.org/pdf/FOSC-Waiver.pdf

Another note is that Key Club does have official membership. We ask for an $11 membership fee which covers International and District expenses. You also get a neat little i.d. card that states you are a member of Key Club International.

If you want a formal membership, email me back and I will hunt you down for that $11 or come by room 38 near the beginning of lunch on Tuesdays.

If you are interested in buying an American Apparel jacket for a discounted price read on.

So San Leandro’s Key Club is having a fundraiser where they sell American Apparel jackets at a discounted price. Jackets are $25 except for the colors listed on the Facebook page which are available for $30 each and are thicker and higher qualitly.

Hello everyone, last weekend Brian, Brandon, Kevin Wei, and Tobi went to Lake Merrit and cleaned for 3 hours. This weekend we are going to fall Rally North! It is an event where we got to Great America and meet fellow key clubbers! You get to spend the day at the park with free drinks and since key club is renting the park there will be shorter lines. It is getting a bit late to sign up but we might be able to pull a few strings, so if you are interested email us back and we will see what we can do. Also be sure to bring around 15.50 for transit and the key club bus that will be heading out from the San Leandro Bart station and extra cash for food at the park.

-Brian Mah Piedmont Key Club Secretary

Hello all,

Apologies for the brief hiatus. Our officers just got back from the Key Club District Convention in Sacramento! All of this year’s officers (Ashley, Thomas, Frank, Stephen, and Kevin) received awards, so congratulate them when you see them!

On another note: now that the wonderful, earthquake-proof 30’s building is now semi-operational, we’ll be moving to Mr. Marthinsen’s room! From now on, all meetings will be held in room 32. This includes tomorrow.

Upcoming Events

4/17 (Saturday)

  • All Day → Rebuilding Together Oakland - Rebuild old buildings in Oakland and make the city a safer place!
  • Early Afternoon → J. F. Kapnek TrustHelp the J. F. Kapnek Trust unload donations, which will then be sent to Zimbabwe.

Both of these events will be open to members (we will be splitting into two groups).

______________________________________________________________

4/25 (Sunday)

  • 9 AM J. F. Kapnek Fun Run - Help the J. F. Kapnek Trust entertain kids at their annual Fun Run! More information is available on their website.

Community service opportunities are blue for regular events, and green for events that can be used for APES hours.

To learn more about a specific event, email us at officers@piedmontkeyclub.org or drop in at one of our meetings every Thursday at lunch in room 32. More events can be found on our calendar.

______________________________________________________________

Also, be sure to buy Tapioca every Thursday at food service! Tapioca Tuesdays have moved to Thursdays, and are now school-sanctioned! The proceeds will be donated to charity. I hope to see all of you in room 32 tomorrow!

Note: After tomorrow, we’ll be moving meetings to Tuesdays to avoid conflict with Tapioca Thursdays. But don’t worry, we’ll remind everyone again next week.

Hello.
 
This weekend's event is on 3/6/10 (Saturday) from 9am – 12pm at Martin Luther King Junior Regional Shoreline (Oakland) with Save the Bay San Francisco.  It is where we will be doing all sorts of planting.  The goal is to plant 25,000 native seedlings for the whole community, so this is not the only area where the seedlings are being planted.  For more information, some of the officers will be meeting in room 15 this Thursday.
 
For the rest of the officers, and interested members, a mandatory meeting in P2 at lunch tomorrow is required by the PHS ASB charter.  Remember to bring some paper, a pencil/pen, and maybe a clipboard for notes.  They will be going over certain rules and guidelines to make sure that current clubs stay active.
 
Thanks and that's all, hope to see you tomorrow!
