Hey y'all! We finally made it through this month full of testing; I'm so proud of us!
Now, it's about time I updated you on what Kentlake's Key Club has been up to :-)
We, of course, had our regular Green Kent events on May 6th and 20th. The one on the 6th was at Clark Lake Park and the 4 members/officers that attended had a good time as usual! The one on the 20th was at Morrill Meadows Park and had only 1 member attend (huge shoutout to Ben), so again, I 100% encourage and recommend going to these because you can represent Key Club in a good way :-)

| Wow, helping the environment sure is fun! |
On the following Friday, May 12th, we held a Teacher Appreciation breakfast at our school! Even though we had to wake up really early to get to the school by 5:15 AM, it was completely worth it to show how much we appreciate Kentlake's staff! We provided the perfect breakfast foods: pancakes, sausage, bacon, eggs, bagels, fruit, and fruit juices. Making breakfast with everyone was truly an enjoyable time :-)

| We may be smiling but we were all dead tired--true meaning of "do it for Key Club" |
The next Saturday, May 27th, was an extremely exciting day--there were 3 events!
One event was the monthly Northwest where they packaged lots of corn--6,400 lbs to be exact! Northwest Harvests are always very pleasant as we get to know how many families we are helping with just 2 hours of work :-)
 |
| It was 'amaizeingly' fun! |
Another event we had that day was volunteering at the Timberlane Block Party! We helped move boxes, set up the tents, and made snow cones. The warm weather was perfect for making snow cones, and seeing all the happy children and adults was great!

| I may have stained my shirt with syrup, but at least I got the kids to laugh |
The final event that day was the May Joint DCM! Key Clubbers from 7 divisions were invited, so there were tons of people to meet and see! We took over Gene Coulon Memorial Beach Park playing ice breakers, having a Miracle Minute, making friendship bracelets for ourselves and cards for kids at Seattle Children's Hospital, having divisional time, and eating food! The Miracle Minute was very successful--we raised $193.73 for KCCP! This was enough to meet our $150 goal, so we got to see the Lieutenant Governors get pied! Overall, it was extremely fun and totally worth driving through the traffic :-)

That's it for May! Next time you see a post, school will (finally) be out! See you in June
