[NEWSLETTER] March Issue

Before I go on weenie-mode and get all sappy, I'd like to thank Laguna Hills High School and Capistrano Valley High School for sending in articles and visuals EVERY SINGLE MONTH for EVERY SINGLE ISSUE. You guys deserve dimsum and kbbq. I'd also like to thank Dana Hills, Aliso Niguel, and Trabuco Hills for sporadically sending in articles and visuals. And thank you Tesoro, El Toro, and San Clemente for sending in at least one article and visual. I really appreciate the effort you put into helping me compile the newsletter. It's been real.

I remember all the way back from last year around April/May or so asking Hannah how I could get more involved in Key Club since I was inactive Junior year, and she told me to apply for an Executive Assistant position. So for kicks, I applied for the Division News Editor position, and a month later, I received an email congratulating me for acquiring that position. Whut.

It may not seem like a big deal to many people like it didn't to me at first--of course I was excited--but I had no idea what Key Club had to offer outside the school clubs. I never thought that I would make new friends and build stronger bonds with people that make Key Club so much better than it seems. The thought never occurred to me. And now the term is coming to an end, an end that I did not prepare for. I'm going to miss the adventures and endeavors of being a part of Key Club on this level, and I'm going to miss working with Hannah, Austin, and Joe as well as the Division Leadership Team. Like Hannah said, "it was a good run." I am grateful for seizing this opportunity to work with and meet colorful characters and diligent lions. Thank you for the experience, and let's welcome the new term!
