A Letter From our Lieutenant Governor
Happy Summer Dragons!
Tina Nguyen
I hope everyone is enjoying their BEE-utiful summer
thus far. The anticipated Region 3 Key Club Beach
Boomba / Clean-Up is coming up this Saturday in sunny
Huntington Beach. BEE sure to come out for some
summer fun and service with the Region 3 family. But
what fun will there be you may ask? Well... does pie-ing
the LTGs sound fun yet? What about a water balloon
fight and a watermelon eating contest? With a sprinkle
of ice breakers, there will be lots of activities planned out
for every minute of the day so make sure to come on out
and enjoy what Beach Boomba has to offer. You will not
regret going! With that being said, make sure to bring
your $5 entrance fee along with your medical release
form. If you would like to purchase / pick-up your 2015-
2016 Division 4 West T-Shirt, BEE sure to bring $13. Try to
bring exact change i f poss ible please.
You all should have your Disney hats on because
the August DCM will be at Downtown Disney for our very
own Division 4 West Scavenger Hunt. Yes, you read that
correctly. You will be given tasks ranging from
serenading the guest, building legos in certain shapes,
and other great hunting activities. Grab your friend and
your camera to record your Kodak moments.
Make sure to continue fundraising with your club for PTP since Fall Rally is
closely approaching. If you read up to this point, DO NOT stop. Continue on with
the rest of the issue because your lovely Division News Editor, Aileen Nguyen, has
some great information for you in stored. Once again, enjoy your summer Dragons
and I will be you all very soon.

Greetings Dragons everywhere! I hope that your summer is going well. So

community whenever possible. We now await the annual Beach Boom-
ba! I hope to see you all there. Also, look out for division buttons that will
make an appearance shortly. Have a good rest of your summer dragons
and keep shining!
Hey Dragons, With numerous events being coordinated, I complete-
ly cannot wait capture each member volunteering at their finest to
show off that Division 4 West capitative charms are impossible to re-
sist. I'm extremely excited to be able to meet all of your wonderful
faces Let's all get ready, but still have some fun while summer is still in
our hands.
Kaitlyn Ung ,
Alon Gary ,
I hope you all have RSVP-ed for Beach Boomba and look forward to
the annual region event. There will also be another region event in the
fall, Region Training Conference, but stay tuned by coming out to the
DCMs and continuing to infuse that dragon, roaring-soaring spirit by
serving "your home, school, and community" as we approach the mid-
dle of our summer vacation.
Michelle Bui ,
I am very excited because I am now having my first real task of Key
Club by writing a cheer for Beach Boomba. That's right. One cheer. I
guess that's my contribution to society.
Bridget Ton ,

going to be fun & you won't regret it!! Alon and I have been making up

Jonathan Wong ,
Frank Le , Summertime allows for members to be exposed to a large
variety of events that cannot be found during the school
year! Make sure to keep up your high spirits and prepare for
the upcoming school year. I'm looking for a year of shining
service for Division 4 West!

Teryn Ngo , It is already the second month of summer ... :( BUT, it
was a pretty great month with all the service events
we had! I am really looking forward to beach
boomba!! Can't wait to see the region!
Hi everyone! Service events seem to be everywhere nowa-
days. In the past 2-3 weeks i've already racked up over 40
service hours which I an wuite proud of. For the upcoming
months I plan on attending more service events and hope-
fully profiting over $3,500 from my dance fundraiser!

Kendall Nakai, Aside from getting sunburnt everyday, Ocean View Key Club has
been whippin' up some pancakes and service to the community
at the Kiwanis pancake breakfast and the board has been
scrambling eggs while also preparing your upcoming service
events! Although it's summer break, we dream of service all the
time, because it never sleeps! Additionally, Ocean Virw revving
up for a whole new year of Key Club fun at freshmen orientation
and the start of school next month. Before that of course we
look forward to seeing your lovely faces and having blast by
meeting new friends of Region 3 at Beach Boomba. See you
there Dragons!
With summer reaching its halfway point, I'm excited to plan more
summer events as well as start thinking about what this year's
board will bring to the club during the upcoming school year. I'm
looking forward to spending Beach Boomba with the rest of
Region 3!
Catherine Le ,
Huntington Beach Key Club throughout the summer has been
invloved with the community in fundraising money for PTP as well as
spending hours volunteering at some huge events. Our board has
been active in Kiwanis by attending their meetings and advertising
their events to key club members. We look forward to making Hun-
tington Beach Key Club's reputation in the community more wide-
spread through volunteering at events and fundraising for good
causes.
Although July is in the middle of summer, the service and events
don't end! We look forward to joining Beach Boomba with all of
Region 3 members! Last year was an amazing experience
because I was able to have fun with many new members!
Tyler Nguyen ,
Tyra Choun,
Hector Bustos,
For this month Segerstrom Key Club worked on raising money
for PTP. For the upcoming month we hope our members attend
Beach Boomba and upcoming events that we have in store for
them! For the fall I hope that membership retention rises and
and donations rise too.
We recently just had a bake sale, which for the most part was
a success! I'd like to continue fundraising & finding more
events for our members in order to increase attendance
even more!
Nathan Vo ,
Brianna Song , This past month has been very eventful with the pan-
cake event and doing firework booths. Later this
month, we're looking forward to Beach Boomba and
the Special Olympic World Games. Our goal this sum-
mer is to fundraise as much as possible! Remember
Dragon's- service never stops!

For this summer so far I've helped organize and attend
events with my home club. I hope to organize a social
and service event in the near future for people to take
the time to get to know one another. I also home to
build a strong bond with our board so that we're able to
run a successful club.
At the beginning of this month we helped the Huntington
Beach Kiwanis with their fireworks booth. We also began
planning future events and are looking forward to volun-
teering at the Special Olympics, as well as spending
some time with Region 3 at Beach Boomba!
Cindy Nguyen ,
Summerfest On June 28th, we volunteered at the Summer Fest at the Fountain
Valley Recreation Center along with
Kiwanis. There, we helped set up the
booth itself and helped out with the
food court, which they as well need-
ed help. The managers also had us
clean up the tables and set up
trashcans near the food court. Tim
and Art, the Fountain Valley Kiwanis
Advisors had us organize the booth
and set up the grill. Overall, summer
fest was fun, as members began to
bond with each other while also
meeting other members from FVHS. As
people began finishing their shifts,
they hung out with their friends at the
park enjoying the rides and watching
the entertainment provided by the
fest's stage. The entertainment was
involved with volunteers who signed
up including some of our own mem-
bers who had before been shy when
it came to a big crowd. In the end
Summer Fest was a good experience
for our members to interact with their
community and meet some of the Ki-
wanis board members who have
been devoted to the community for
years.

Summerfest OTC was a fun yet educational experience to add on to our current
knowledge of how to be a better
board member. A fraction of our
board attended, and we got to
know people from different schools
along with different divisions. For the
first workshop, we split up by posi-
tion and went into the directed
rooms. The Vice President workshop
consisted of all the different Vice
Presidents from our region. By hav-
ing discussions on how to help out
club thrive, the most important thing
we learned was to assist our presi-
dent. For the second workshop, our
board once again split up to go to
what we thought was the most im-
portant thing to learn. The fundrais-
ing workshop gave me a broader
understanding of which organiza-
tions we donate to, and also what
different schools do to raise money.
Overall, OTC was entertaining yet
stimulating .

The first ever Dragon Games was an enjoyable event that helped us to get out
of our shells. After the DCM we were numbered
off into different groups to compete against one
another to see who would emerge victorious in
the end. Being put into random groups allowed
for people who wouldn't normally talk to one an-
other to make new friends. It was very entertain-
ing and exciting to see everyone battling it out,
messing around, and having fun. The groups ro-
tated and took turns facing off in different types
of games, such as relay races, volleyball, and wa-
ter balloon tosses. I hope that this will become an
annual event that we can continue to improve
on and make better each year since it is different
from our usual events.

Key Club is a crystal.
The core values, different
types of service events, ways
to reach out to the
community, and friendships
made, all contribute to a
beautiful ly multi -faceted
organization that I am proud
to be a key role in as a
member.
One of the facets of
Key Club is time. Things
change, people change, the
world changes. Time can be
wasted or spent in service. It
can be used to learn, grow,
and mature in leadership.
Over the span of my first and
freshman year, I’ve learned
that time in Key Club is the
most significant to me
because it teaches love of
s e r v i c e , c o n f i d e n c e ,
compassion, and how to hold
a level of humility in leadership
positions.
At the beginning of my
time in Key Club, I joined
through Club Rush because
the idea of a being part of a
high school community service
club piqued my interest.
Throughout my childhood, my
parents have set an example
of service through their
volunteering and having me
help as well in the church,
school, and community. Key
Club seemed like the perfect
continuation of this.
Over the months, Key
Club revealed more of its
crystal facets. I spoke with one
of my friends from a different
school and they too were in
this Key Club; collecting
money for the UNICEF Trick-Or-
Treat boxes. I didn’t even
known clubs could be inter-
school and this changed my
perspective in the sense I was
serving something on a much
larger scale. I learned Key
Club is more than club,
division, region, or district; it is
international.
19
Deciding to go for club president has
made Key Club the pinnacle of my life and
awakened a passion and blistering happiness
in my heart in learning that every little thing I
work towards helps the club I serve grow, and
ultimately the Key Club, school, and city
community.
The first time I truly saw my reflection in
Key Club was was at the Kiwanis Family Fun
Day Easter Hunt, my first event as president.
From seeing the importance of our sponsoring
Kiwanis interaction, to connecting the club I
serve with other clubs, to the idea I have to
know and always be aware of what directions
the club it's being given; it was a real learning
experience.
One of the things enjoyable about Key
Club is that many service event gems recur
again. Past Kiwanis hosted events like Family
Fun Or Pancake Day, or international events
such as Eliminate Month and Fall Rally repeat
themselves annually so they sustain their
fundraising or service impact over and over
again.
Fundraising for preferred charities such
as Project Eliminate and Pediatric Trauma
Program, volunteering at local events, and
seeing children's smiles is absolutely
fascinating. But, it's being able to do this all
alongside fellow members aka family who
truly do define caring and inclusiveness as
their way of life.
At this point my Key Club story has many years
to keep building upon it with the gems of
service, caring, and learning key meaning of
our club's service in the world. Probably, the
clearest thing I have discovered this year is
that the most effective and passionate service
is changing the world not through one person,
but many <3
