ELIMINATE WEEK
EDITOR’S LETTER Dear New Jersey District Board, International Convention is in just days! It can’t come any slower; the suspense is killing me! Apart form that, the ELIMINATE Week that we rescheduled was a success. Even though some of the other districts were confused by why we had our week scheduled in June instead of the original week, our week shined. Some divisions had dances and others had fundraisers in order to help support, raise awareness, and fundraise for the ELIMINATE Project. This year, my home club did something pretty special—we had our first Key Club Olympics featuring a bracket of teams competing to take home gold trophies. Each team donated to the ELIMINATE Project by purchasing ELIMINATE themed headbands, water balloons, and re-freshments were sold to further the fundraising. All in all, the whole event was amazing on a multitude of levels. First it save babies from Maternal and Neonatal Tetanus (MNT) and raise the moral of ELIMINATE week. Second, it helped bring Key Clubbers closer as well as show non-Key Clubbers a little bit of what Key Club is about: team work, leadership, and friendship. That’s all I got to say about how my ELIMINATE Week was. Can’t wait to see you all at International Convention!

TIMELINE To make the overall event easier to follow, the overall proceedings are placed in a timeline below:
O| Opening Ceremony: Each team got introduced to one another. They got the chance to warm up, get an overview of the events that were proceeding the ceremony, and get pumped for the games! 1| Event Number One: Volleyball The Special Events Committee utilized the convenient volleyball courts in the park to host a bracketed volleyball tournament amongst the teams. From serve to spike, the teams competed to win points for the round that later got tallied to decided the final victor. 2| Event Number Two: Three-Legged Race Two competitors of each team bound their legs together with some yarn and raced up a hill, carefully going in between set cones markers. Any slipping or failure to synch would cost the team points in the end. I| Intermission After the first two events, competitors needed a break so refreshments were sold during a short period of time in the middle of the events. Other then the intermission being a food break, teams also got the chance to bond closer to other teams as well as with other members of their same team. Water balloons were also of-fered to soak unsuspecting attendees. 3| Event Number Three: Wheel Barrel Race This event was another race that depended on the teams correctly matching two of their com-petitors together. The two chosen racers had to work together—one person was on only his arms while the other held that person’s legs up. Like the three-legged race, they had to race up a hill! 4| Event Number Four: Tug-of-War The classic game of tug-of-war made its appear-ance in the games as the final event. Opposing teams pulled their hearts out in a final attempt at points in a competition of pure strength. The last event pulled some towards victory and dragged others to defeat. C| Closing Ceremonies After all the events were over, the points were tallied up and the teams that were victorious received their prizes. The final amount fund-raised was also announced and with that, the First Annual Egg Harbor Township High School Key Club Olympics came to an end.
Since there was no entrance fee for the teams, how did the club make money to support the ELIMINATE Project though the Key Club Olympics? Above is an infographic explaining how things like refreshments, headbands, water balloons, and donations helped raise $111.46 and save 61 mothers and their children!

There are three basic things you can change to make a picture more appealing or interesting. These three things are shape, size, and color. The picture below shows all three combined. The photo has been split into individual shapes to both suit the theme as well as follow the square theme. It has also been gray scaled to give it a contemporary feel and to follow the color palette. Finally, it’s enormous size allows it to be the center of attention as well as allow for additional text boxes on its right to have a large enough area for text. Be creative with your own pictures! Although some pictures can look fine the way they are, picture can also be edited in certain ways too look more modern and appealing!
Certain colors also synergize with other colors. For example, the classic red and blue look great together as they contrast one another. However the light blue and dark blue also work well together to highlight one an-other’s lighter and darker shades. In contrast, certain colors should not be put with cer-tain colors. In general make sure not to use colors that would look too funky or tacky together. For example, orange and purple creates an eyesore when used as a color scheme and orange and green is also another hard-to-pull-off combination.

With the new Brand Guide distributed by Key Club International, some old colors from the Graphic Stan-dard manual were removed and new colors were instated. Even though you might just decide to pick colors based purely on aesthetics, some colors actually have symbolic associations with certain abstract ideas or val-ues. Consider matching colors with their purpose the next time you use color!
