The Jonathan Law Keyettes Club is up and running again this year.
Keyettes Club is similar to Key Club but is predominantly female. This club helps the Law community and gives students great volunteering opportunities.
“This club really brings people together, especially girls, and it is just a great way to meet new people and get more involved in our school community,” junior Co-President Lexi Velez said.
This club is open to everyone and returning members would love new people to join. Being in the club will bring students many opportunities to meet new people.
“I’m excited for the new members and the exciting events that are going to come up,” junior Co-President Nicole Naula said. “My job as the president is to make sure the club is a student-run club and make sure everyone’s ideas are taken into place while providing the best I can to make the club successful and better than it is.”
Many students join Keyettes for the volunteer opportunities.
“If they want volunteer opportunities this is a great way to get them,” Keyettes Club Advisor Mr. Kelly said. “If they get 200 volunteer hours, they will graduate with Honors of Distinction.”
The Keyettes had their first meeting on September 19 where they discussed some of their plans for the future.
“This year, we plan to hold two bi-annual blood drives in October and April to donate it to the Red Cross,” Kelly said. “We will also be going to and helping out elementary school PTO meetings.”
Returning and new members are excited for this club to kick off this year.
“I’m excited for all the volunteer hours and that the Keyettes Club is giving me so many great opportunities I would have never been able to do,” freshman Ella Hopkins-Gianotti said.
