Information
Hello JMHS wolves! So far we’re doing great
in terms of starting the New Year right with
and ample amount of service events.
We’ve made such a huge impact to
people in our neighborhood by attending
the Silver Lake Clean Up and supporting
runners during the 10k Chinatown
Firecracker Marathon. In addition, I find it
amazing how sophomores and juniors of
our club are getting involved in political
campaigns! Phone Banking and organizing
data for Matt Szabo definitely is a small step
that will start something big. Speaking of
something big, did everyone get their “ON”
at the Region 7 Ohana Night!? Cause I sure
did. Bonding with our region not only is fun,
but it also shows how big of a club we are
and the amount of people who are willing
to make a difference in our community. But
most importantly, Congratulations to Arbyn
Olarte, Tiffany Chan, Michelle Simbajon,
and Ernestine Hong for being the new
chairs of the JMHS Board! Wolves, please
look forward to an inspiring term of service
with your new Key Club board.
Your Bulletin Editor,
Arianna Dela Rosa
Silver Lake Clean Up
The Silver lake Cleaning event was one that would
not be soon forgotten. Showing up I wasn't
expecting to be doing much, maybe pick up some
trash, broom here and there however once started
there was so much work to be done and so much
effort put in by everyone. Starting one's weekend
pulling out weeds and cleaning up the streets
certainly doesn't sound like much fun but it became
an incredibly fun event thanks to the wolves who
showed up to help. Every day I ride the bus that
passes by the area we helped clean up and I never
really thought about how much it could help just
pulling out weeds from cracks, throwing trash in
proper containers and generally making the area a
lot cleaner. There is still a lot to do for our community
and I am certainly looking forward to helping with a
smile on my face and my wolves all around.

Firecracker 10K Marathon
Chinatown has always been part of
my "native land" and I've always
wondered one day whether or not I'd
get the chance to volunteer there.
This was accomplished on a dark
Sunday morning for Chinatown's
Firecracker 10k marathon. Waking up
at 5 a.m. alongside my fellow key
clubbers wasn't all that fancy but the
work we'd done was interesting. We
began our early day by separating
completion medals that we'd later
hand out to the runners. It was really
fun considering the fact that some of
the volunteers were friends with some
of the runners. It was even more fun
watching the little kids run the 2k. Later
on we walked to the Golden Dragon
Seafood Restaurant to be served
some of the most well-known Chinese
dishes seated with other organizations
and divisions that shared the same
interest as our John Marshall Club.
Ernestine Hong
The 35th Annual Firecracker 10k sounded like a really exciting
event to go to on a Sunday, then I discovered that I needed to
be in Chinatown by the wee hours of the morning. But that did
not stop me from taking the opportunity of providing service for
other people, plus we were promised to be given FREE food
after volunteering. So I set my alarm clock to wake me very early
in the morning and took the train to Downtown. When I arrived, I
was stunned by how many people I saw already working to set
up the event, they were all filled with energy and had smiles
across their faces, while I just watched half asleep, shivering
under the cold morning weather. I was finally placed in a group
and immediately were put to work. We did things such as set up
tents , move ramps and fences, and tie medals that we were to
give to the runners after they completed the race. After that we
were given the chance to explore the corners of Chinatown
where people gave free samples of food and play in booths
where people can win prizes. I myself won two small bags of
rice! By eight o'clock all the volunteers lined up by the finish the
line to award runners with medals that they deserved. The
amount of smiles and joyful expressions I saw in the runner’s
faces when handed the medals was amazing, it inspired me to
continue to make people happy by serving the,. The runners
were not the only ones awarded, you know? After the event,
the volunteers were seated in a fancy Chinese restaurant where
they served us SO MUCH delicious food that people had to
come home. It was a perfect way to end the day. The 35th
Annual Firecracker 10k was an event to remember and I hope
there would be more events like this to come.
Arbyn Olarte
Member of the month
Arbyn Olarte
John Marshall Key Club bestows Member of the Month to enthusiastic member, Arbyn Olarte. In his first year of high school and Key Club, he has been quite active. He attended our monthly Ronald McDonald House. He and other fellow Key Clubbers also gave our medals to the runners at the 35th Annual Firecracker 10k in Chinatown. He is helping the community at such an early age. Even though he is still timid, shy, and new to the club, he is always encouraging his friends to come to our general meetings in school. Arbyn has been elected Sophomore Representative for our school’s club for the 2013-2014 term. Arbyn is a great addition to the club, helping the community and encouraging others to join the fun as well.
Officer of the month
Marian Montano
John Marshall Key Club would like to award Marian Montano as Officer of the Month for February. Marian, or as we like to call her, Mai, has been a stupendous officer from the beginning of her term to now. As she has risen from being a member, to Freshman Representative, and finally has achieved her well-deserved role of Vice President! She has collected many hours in both the club and service departments. Although her title was Freshman Representative, she not only brought along many new freshman faces to our club, but she also helped out in many other ways. She has been a blessing to us, and she will be a godsend to anyone who has to work with her in the future. If there could be anyone who deserves the title of Officer of the Month, even officer of the year, it would be Marian Montano.
