Club’s members entertain elderly— [ D espond to Society's Needs was the ‘theme for Key Club, which was in its second year under the sponsorship of the Lawrence KiwanisClub. The Key Club was involved in many different activities, which included visits with and work for the elderly, bake sales, a powder puff football game and a dance marathon that was cancelled because of bad weather. The Dance Marathon, with a slogan of Dance against Cancer was co-sponsored by the Student Council and received pledges from people all across Lawrence. Despite the cancellation, a few merchants around town donated approxi- mately $100 to the local chapter of the American Cancer Society. Another activity that Key Club mem- bers were able to participate in was a trip to Wichita for the 29th Annual Kansas District Key Club Convention. All Key Clubs in Kansas were invited. Key Club members at the convention attended workshops, banquets and a dance. They also had a chance to enter contests. Sen- ior Margaret Wolfe, who sang Send in the Clowns, and sophomore Kristen Stewart, who sang Wish We'd All Been Ready, participated in the talent contest. The Key Club placed third in Scrapbook com- petition, second in Overall Achievement for the 1978-79 school year, and second for the Best Single Service Project of the year. The project they entered was a tal- ent show titled Greatest Show in Lav r- ence. The Talent Show was performed for several nursing homes in Lawrence and in- cluded a wide variety of acts, from sing- ing to comedy to mime. The objectives of Key Club, as stated in the Key Club constitution, were to develop initiative and leadership, to pro- vide experience working together, to serve the school and community and to prepare for useful citizenship. President Mary Kay Blubaugh said that the Key Club helped members look be- yond their own needs and taught them to unselfishly give their time and efforts. □ 22
