Work Day at the Ranch for the Grace Foundation

On October 28th, we will drive out to Latrobe and work on the ranch that belongs to the Grace foundation. This foundation rescues horses that are bound for the slaughterhouse, rehabilitates them, puts them up for adoption or keeps them on the ranch. Some of the horses are part of a program that partners at-risk youth with the horses. Our job on the 28th will include painting the barn and possibly put up a fence. Weather permitting, we will host a barbecue after the event.

Time for the event is 10 AM to 2 PM with the BBQ to follow. We will need parents to help with the transportation both to and from the ranch.

Swat Team Training

Hey Everyone,

Oak Ridge is the location of Swat team training, they need people to be the hostages, and simulate a full campus. We also need parents to be coming to pick up their child and get freaked out when they realize what is going on. it is July 23-27th so THIS Monday-Friday, from 12:30-5 at Oak Ridge, You can come 1 day, you can come all or any combination of the days. You will need your parents to fill out a permission slip/health waiver. Swat will be using blanks so no harm will be done. You can pick up the waiver from the principals office (see Mrs. Botkin). We need a total of 200 volunteers, anyone 12 and up can participate.

Show Your Support
Key Club isn't just during the school year, they are always things we are doing, and if you were short on hours last year, you might want to take advantage of your summer.



Fall Rally !

Hi Key Clubbers,

Fall Rally is really fun, and we need lots pf people for it. It's on October 20th from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., We will leave from Oak Ridge and travel to Six Flags-Discovery Kingdom ! It is really fun but you have to be enthusiastic, because all the Key Clubbers participate in Spirit Battles, so you also HAVE TO STAY WITH THE GROUP. This is very important and will NOT be tolerated if you wander away from the group. We will have tons of fun! You will need to pay for the entrance fee into Six Flags-Discovery Kingdom/Marine World, and your food.

I will figure out the time we will leave from Oak Ridge to get to Discovery Kingdom Around 10AM and it ends around 7PM. Our Lt. Governor is hoping to see 35 members,of course we could bring more since we are the largest club out of the 16 in the division.

Show your Support and Key Club Spirit !

Sacramento Bee - Children's Book Drive

Oak Ridge is a donation site for the Sacramento Bee's Share-A-Story book drive! Each English teacher has been given the info and should be encouraging students to bring in books.

ALSO, besides bringing in books you can take your volunteering to the next level by leading book-sorting sessions!

As the third annual Share A Story Children's Book Drive is gearing into full swing, volunteers are needed to sort the books that will be collected throughout April and May.

In particular, Hands On Sacramento is looking for volunteers who are interested in being a project leader to lead book sorting sessions. Leading a book sorting session is a fun and easy way to increase your community involvement and dedication to volunteering. Book sorting sessions are about 2 to 3 hours long and are conveniently timed to fit around your work or school schedules.

Project leaders play an essential role in the success of the book drive. This year alone, we are looking to collect, sort, and redistribute over 100,000 new and gently used children's books. This large task cannot be completed without the help of our dedicated volunteers.

If you have volunteered at our book sorting sessions in previous years, we welcome you to come back as project leaders. If you have not participated in the book sorting before but would like to learn to lead sessions, we will train you to be an excellent project leader. If you are one of our current project leaders and are interested in helping out in between your projects, we appreciate your ongoing dedication.

To be a book sorting project leader, you must attend one training session and lead at least 3 sorting sessions of your choice.

If you want to sign up to be a project leader or have questions, please contact Paul - phicks@handsonsacto.org / (916) 447-7063 x305.

Community Service Trip to Costa Rica

Hey Key Clubbers,

I am organizing a trip to Costa Rica through a company called Global Works this summer, from June 3 - June 15. The emphasis of this trip is a combination of adventure (white-water rafting), culture exchange activities, and community service. The trip is NOT a Key Club trip but it will be a school sponsored trip (I'm waiting for approval from the school board). As a former Peace Corps volunteer, I believe an experience like this can be life-changing and well worth the expense. As trips go, the cost is very reasonable. A deposit of $250 is due by March 2nd, the rest of the tuition ($1500) is due by March 30th. We will need to have 14 students to make a trip.

Please spread the word, come by my room I-6 for a flyer of the tentative itinerary, and plan to attend an information meeting on Thursday Feb. 22nd at 6:30 PM in I-6.

Once I have the minimum 14 students we will assess the need and decide on additional fundraisers to help with the costs!

One other incentive....experiences like this can be an outstanding asset when it's time to submit your college applications.

Yours in service, Mrs. G

Project Linus

We have several small groups supporting Project Linus. The goal is to make a blanket or a quilt that will be donated to a hospital, shelter, children's home, police officers, etc to give to a child in need. The goal is not so much to make a blanket for warmth as it is a "comfort" blanket.

Quilts are made at the home of one of our Kiwanis supporters. It will take several sessions at her house to make a quilt. Please sign up if you are interested. No prior sewing experience is needed.

Two types of blankets can be made using yarn.

Carly Polland is teaching students how to make a beautiful blanket using an "heirloom lace" loom. This is a special type of crochet. No prior experience is needed.

Jillian Spink and Carmen Siu will teach basic knitting. Besides blankets, students can make scarves that we will donate to local food banks and shelters.

Jessica Biggs and Rachel Thatcher can teach students how to make a very simple knitted hat WITHOUT using regular knitting kneedles.

All of these projects are fun to do. You can learn a new skill and earn community service hours at the same time.



Work Day at the ranch for Grace Foundation

On October 28th, we will drive out to Latrobe and work on the ranch that belongs to the Grace foundation. This foundation rescues horses that are bound for the slaughterhouse, rehabilitates them, puts them up for adoption or keeps them on the ranch. Some of the horses are part of a program that partners at-risk youth with the horses. Our job on the 28th will include painting the barn and possibly put up a fence. Weather permitting, we will host a barbecue after the event.

Time for the event is 10 AM to 2 PM with the BBQ to follow. We will need parents to help with the transportation both to and from the ranch.

Upper Room

Last Tuesday of every month, Next** October 31, 2006

Attention all Key Clubbers... The Soup kitchen in Placerville called the Upper Room is in need of volunteers to come and help on the last tuesday of every month! This is a great way to get service hours and it is fun too. Volunteers must be at least 14 to work as a waiter/server and at least 16 to work in the kitchen. Volunteers will need to provide their own transportation to and from the site. We recommend leaving around 3 and depending on the night, will expect to be home around 6:30. Carpool options may be available.Note: A prayer is usually said before the serving begins, so if this is something you are not comfortable with feel free to decline, or just say that this is through a school club. They will understand. Also they recommend wearing close toed shoes. Have fun!!

If you have any questions and/or need directions please contact Alli Nystrom (V.P) at (916) 832-0900, or Ashley Dolfie (V.P) at (916) 715-6672. Thanks hope to see you there**
