From the Members:

Bill Gile recapped the first Key Club meeting at LHS this week, stating that approximately 35 students showed up for their initial meeting and there is a lot of energy in the Club. Bill is no longer the Advisor. He is now the Key Club liaison with the Kiwanis Club.

Betty Ballantyne recapped a very successful Roger's Ride. The Club netted $5,108.25, which will be used to fund children's charities in our area.

Betty reported that 2018 will the 10th and final year of this annual event.
