When Kiwanis calls for help, Key Club answers!

Key Club members participated in Kiwanis One Day events on October 23 along with their sponsoring Kiwanis clubs, completing projects that included park cleanups and food drives.

In the California-Nevada-Hawaii District, the Kiwanis Club of Los Gatos, California, worked with members of Los Gatos High School on a trail cleanup. More than 75 people volunteered to clean up Oak Meadow Park.

The Key Club members also put their heads together and came up with a contest for K-Kids to win pumpkins, said Nancy Pearson, a Los Gatos Kiwanis Club member who helped organize the event.

Another California project saw Key Club members in Thousand Oaks help with a park cleanup that included a canned food drive and an opportunity to paint kindness rocks and write letters for a local make-a-wish group. Volunteers collected more than 70 cans of food. The Thousand Oaks High School Key Club, Los Cerritos Builders Club and Weathersfield K-Kids club participated in the project.

The Flagler Palm Coast Key Club joined the Kiwanis Club of Flagler Palm Coast in the Florida
District to work on a park cleanup in conjunction with the Flagler County Parks Department.

Working at Camp Kiwanalong in Oregon, members of Key Clubs in the Pacific Northwest District joined with the Kiwanis Club of Warrenton, Oregon, to get the job done.

In the Nebraska-Iowa District, Key Club members and the Spencer Hy-Noon Kiwanis Club rewarded public service workers by delivering donuts to them.
