A Few Ke<br />

<strong>Key</strong> Club is the world’s largest and oldest student-led organization, with<br />

over 270,000 members in 35 nations worldwide. It originated in Sacramento,<br />

California, in 1925. Two Kiwanians, who were also administrators,<br />

chose to establish a club to develop leadership in 11 of<br />

the school’s “key boys,” hence the name “<strong>Key</strong> Club.”<br />

<strong>Key</strong> Club is one of the branches of the Kiwanis International<br />

Family, in addition to Aktion Club, Circle K International,<br />

Builders’ Club, and Kiwanis Kids. However, <strong>Key</strong> Club<br />

remains the largest of the organizations.<br />

OFFICER INFORMATION FORMS (OIFs) are to be filled out by the secretary as<br />

soon as possible and should be updated throughout the year. They allow the<br />

lieutenant governor and Executive Committee members to contact club officers<br />

and send information regarding divisional, district, and international news.<br />

PRIDE REPORTS are monthly online reports detailing each club’s service, meeting<br />

attendance, and more. They are to be filled out by the Club Secretary on<br />

the 10th of each month. However, the Summer Pride Report for June, July, and<br />

August is due September 10. These reports allow Lieutenant Governors and<br />

district executive officers to track the club’s involvement.<br />
