Hello Wisconsin-Upper Michigan Key Clubbers, Welcome to the very first Key to Caring! This publication will be released quarterly throughout the year to keep you updated with the District Board and provide resources to help your club succeed! My name is Taylor Hurst and I will be serving as your District Governor for the 20162017 Key Club year. I’m super excited to work with all of you to make this year the most successful one ever! First off, I’d like to tell you a little about myself. I am currently a junior at Kimberly High School. Aside from Key Club, I take part in many activities in my own school, including Life Force, Cross Country, Link Crew, National Honor Society, the United Way Youth Board, and the Fox Cities Dance Marathon Planning Committee. I absolutely love getting involved, especially when I can work with kids, which is a huge part of my life! I aim to go on to college to complete my Master’s Degree in either Early Childhood Education or Elementary Education. Outside of school, I enjoy being with my friends and family. I do my best to spend time with them as much as possible; while I make my schoolwork a priority, I do my best to have some fun every once in a while, usually by watching a romantic comedy or going on a hike with whoever wishes to join me! Introductions aside, there is a lot I would like to accomplish with your help this year. I would like to put an emphasis on communication between clubs and the District Board so that we can eliminate any gaps between us and strengthen our unity. It never fails to put me in awe how much we can do as a unified District, and by contacting one another face to face and through platforms such as email and social media, I know that we will be able to increase our impact on our homes, schools, and communities as Key Clubbers! Another goal I’d like to accomplish is to give back to two organizations that have supported our District for years. Camp Wawbeek in Wisconsin and BayCliff Health Center in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan do incredible things each year when they open their gates to campers who have been mentally and physically challenged throughout their lives. These two camps are equipped with phenomenal staff that helps their campers reach new heights and defeat any predispositions that may have held them back. It is my honor to announce that these camps will be the District Project! There are a plethora of ways to support these camps through fundraisers and service projects, and I truly believe that if we are able to work together, we can change the lives of countless children and adults who are faced with disabilities and confirm their beliefs that they are capable of doing anything. Key Club has had an enormous influence on me; I have become close with so many people from every corner of the world, and I have truly learned to lead and serve my home, school, and community. Now, I have the opportunity to lead and serve the entire WisconsinUpper Michigan District, and I am so thankful for this opportunity. Please don’t hesitate to contact me with any questions, comments, or suggestions that you have throughout the year! Together, we will propel the WisconsinUpper Michigan District to new heights! Yours in service, Taylor Hurst 3
