Freshman Orientation

On July 28th, 2011, Key Clubbers came together for the first event before the new 2011-2012 school year. Did you see us at Freshman orientation? Our new 2011-2012 officer team ran a booth, informing the incoming freshmen about none other than, Key Club! We were overjoyed to see how excited the new students were about Key Club. We had a great time meeting all of you, and we hope to meet you all again in our first meeting of the school year!
