While we have faced a number of challenges over the past six months, this opportunity will allow members to engage with one another and be educated on several critical topics.

U.S. Senator Bill Nelson, a past Key Club International president will speak as keynote. Breakout sessions will include the following topics:
- Diversity and inclusion
- COVID-19 resources
- Service

- October DWF: Painting Pots for PTP
As Halloween draws near, make sure to sign-up for Division 8’s October fundraiser! We will be selling adorable Halloween-themed pot painting kits that you can paint yourself! Each kit will come with a clay pot, 3 paints, a paintbrush, and best of all, a bag of Halloween candy. Even better news, you can purchase all of that for just $5! (All proceeds go to PTP). And what’s more, by purchasing pots, you will be able to earn service hours from the time you spent painting!
To get more information about pick-up dates and payment methods, or to sign up, please visit this link or go to bit.ly/d8painting.Feel free to share this with your family/friends and we hope to see you soon! Please note, the live painting date/time is subject to change, and the deadline to order pots has been extended!
- New Member Orientations/Inductions
In the next couple of weeks, our division will be hosting new member orientations for incoming Key Clubbers! This is a great opportunity to educate new members on all the mechanisms of Key Club, from introducing them to the division/district scene, to talking about the Member Recognition Program (awards that THEY can earn), and leadership positions on all different levels of Key Club. More information will be released as planning progresses, so stay tuned!
Question of the Day (Halloween-themed!): Would you rather walk through a graveyard at midnight or spend the night in a spooky and abandoned house?
Thank you to everyone that read through the end! Even though Halloween looks a lot different than past years, I hope you still take the initiative to celebrate the season (carving a jack-o'-lantern, staying home for a horror movie marathon, baking Halloween-themed treats, etc.) I personally will be holding a movie marathon with my sisters, but it is up to you. Until next time, guys!
Don't forget your monthly submissions!
