Pledge:I pledge, on my honor,

And combat all forces which tend to undermine these institutions.

Call to Order - President Jesse

Key Club Pledge - Vice President Rebecca

Enough Credits? - Treasurer Dani

The end of the year is fast approaching and MANY of you do not have enough credits for active membership!  Get involved ASAP or you will NOT be considered a Key Clubber!  We will print a list of credits earned sometime during the first week of April. 

Blood Drive - Vice President Jordan

Thank you to all members who donated time and food to help make our annual blood drive a success!  We collected 119 pints of blood from 142 people who attempted to donate! 

Students Assisting Seniors - Vice President Jackie

Two dates!  April Fools Party this Wednesday 4/1 and a Passover Party next Wednesday 4/8.  Located at the Bristal, 117 Post Avenue in Westbury from 3:00-4:45pm.  Dance and interact with the senior citizens.  Dress nicely, NO JEANS.  You need your own ride there and back.  You’ll receive 2 credits for attending.  Sign up for either this week or next week, after today’s meeting.

Kiwanis Pancake Breakfast - Kiwanis Advisor Mrs. Mankita

The annual Pancake Breakfast is Sunday April 19th (the last day of April vacation).  We will need volunteers to sell tickets to the event for $5 each.  All money earned goes directly to our club.  We will also need several volunteers to sign up to work at the event.  You can work a shift of approximately 2-3 hours to earn 2 credits. 

March of Dimes - March for Babies - Advisor Mrs. Marando

One of the most important walks for Key Club International and a mandatory event for our club!  March for Babies is an annual nationwide walk to raise money to help premature babies and prevent premature births and infant deaths.  This event highlights Key Club International’s Major Emphasis Program (MEP) of “Children: Their Future, Our Focus” and so is our first ever MANDATORY event!  We expect 100% participation!  Join us Sunday April 26th at 8:30am at Eisenhower Park, NO exceptions!  Go to http://www.marchforbabies.org/660630 and click “join this team” to sign up as a member of the JFK Key Club team.  Last year Mrs. Marando personally raised over $500 and will try to reach the same goal again this year!  You will receive 2 credits for participating in this event, but if you raise $100 or more documented online as a member of our team you will receive 3 credits, raise $200 or more and you will receive 4 credits!  You must register online but you may collect donations in person as well.  Top earners will be recognized so get registered and start collecting donations immediately!         

Credits Committee - Webmaster Joe

Earn credit by logging our members’ credits.  You must be able to stay after our Monday meetings until about 3:30 to participate.  We will not necessarily meet every week, but we need the same volunteers consistently.  Stay after today’s meeting.   

Adjournment - President Jesse

Make sure you pick up verification forms for all activities you participate in.  Get them signed before handing them in with your name, grade, and activity listed.  For all activities, the Activity Verification Form must be signed by the advisor, a person running the event, or an officer, and must be handed in within 1 week at our Monday meetings or to Mrs. Marando in rm 308.

*Being in Key Club does NOT guarantee sufficient service for admission to the National Honor Society or to fulfill the community service hours for social studies.
