Salvation Army
On Dec. 15th, I did the
Salvation Army Bell
Ringing located in
TCU Kroger.
Throughout the day,
there was not only bell
ringing but also the
sounds of flute and
violin. Each donation
that came to the
bucket would be going
to Salvation Army for
non-profit and purely
helping purposes. I was
proud to have helped
in this memorable
event at the end of
the year.

The New Year
As 2012 is gone and 2013 is coming by, service is not and never will be over. The new year has plenty of service projects both new and old. The elections for new officer positions are also coming up. There is also DCON that is coming (probably the most exciting event of the year for Key Clubbers) that will
have the annual quiz bowl as well as many other competitions. Look forward to the new year and HAPPY NEW YEAR!

I pledge, on my honor, to up-

with snacks and supplies. We made about 25 cards with
Christmas stickers and lots of
creativity. Everyone involved had
a great time and we hoped to
spread cheer to those in need.
What is DCON, you ask? Well, from a 2-time attendee’s perspective, it’s only one of the
best weekends ever. If that isn’t enough to entice you to attend however, here are the
details: It is a fun-filled weekend at the Sheraton Hotel in Dallas where you will have
the opportunity to meet 1500+ Key Clubbers from across Texas-Oklahoma. There will
be inspirational speakers, a talent show, many competitions such as quiz bowl and Just
Dance, forums to teach leadership skills and more about serving in Key Club, and more.
This year’s theme is “Haunted House” and the stage and hotel rooms will be decorated
accordingly! Overall, it is a great way to learn more about the organization and service
(especially for you underclassmen!) while celebrating the great year that has passed
and getting excited for the upcoming one! Get enough hours with our club so you can
be sure to attend! You really don’t want to miss it!

Fort Worth, a ton of key clubbers came out to Aashna Bhatia to make
help and walk in the parade. This was that fun come true. definitely one of the most fun and festive
events of the year. There were over a
hundred floats, which were all unique and
covered in beautiful lights. I had so much fun
being in the parade and getting to dance to
Holiday music as I walked the streets of
downtown Fort Worth.
