RECAP
Benson KEY CLUB OF DIVISION 62
INSIDE: CLUB ELECTIONS, HEARTBREAKER RACE, KIWANIS DAY AT
DOERNBECHER, MEET THE OFICERS OF 2014-15

MARATHON HEARTBREAKER
Benson Key Club teamed up with Benson’s
2015 Prom Committee and helped them
raise money for their prom at the
Heartbreaker Race in Hillsboro! There, Key
Clubbers assisted in managing water stations,
making sure the runners got their dose of
H2O. After all, the most important thing to
focus on during a race is not the distance—
but your health and how hydrated you are.
OFFICER ELECTIONS This year’s club elections were very exciting. The turn out for candidates was very
plentiful, especially the competition for the presidential position. We had two
candidates for treasurer, one candidate for secretary, one candidate for vice
president, and three candidates for president. All the candidates were very strong
applicants and you could tell they all truly had a passion for Key Club and were
more than capable for the positions they were running for. No matter which
candidates won for whichever position, it’d be a win-win situation for everyone.

KIWANIS DAY AT
DOERNBECHER Three of our Key Clubbers along with
some of David Douglas’ were able to
trek their way up to OHSU’s campus
and navigate their way to the Kiwanis
Day at Doernbecher event. There, we
watched many Kiwanis affiliated clubs
such as Builder’s Clubs, K-Kids, Key
Clubbers and Kiwanis clubs, too,
present donations of money for the
cancer research at Doernbecher. We
were also able to listen to a
presentation about the Kiwanis
Children’s Cancer Program (KCCP) and
how far they’ve come in helping
combat cancer! Cancer patients also
went up and shared their touching
stories about how they’ve survived thus
far and how cancer has afflicted them.
It was most definitely a meaningful and
heart-warming experience.
MEET THE OFFICERS
Hello everyone! My name's Victoria. I am your current bulletin editor and
incoming president! Allow me to tell you a little about myself. I'm currently
a sophomore and to be graduating with the class of 2016. My
favorite color is blue, I enjoy drawing and sleeping outside of my time
dedicated to school and volunteering, and I absolutely detest armpit
odor. I am actually very terrible at talking about myself and my interests,
if you couldn't tell. A good ten minutes of contemplating the question,
“Who am I? What do I like?” went into those last three sentences. My
goals for my term as president are to be more of a leader and not a
dictator, increase membership, participation, and make sure your
experience as a Key Clubber is simply fabulous. My views on a president’s
role is to be flexible, friendly, and professional, but above all is friendly. I
hope you guys can find me to be reliable, helpful, and trustworthy.
Should you ever need a helping hand, I’ll have both my hands offered to
you. I'm always open to suggestions, so don't be afraid to be blunt about
it to me. So long as we never forget to work together, I’m good with
anything. My motto is: alone, we are an individual. But together, we are
Key Club!
Hi Key Clubbers! I'm Yessica Martinez Mulet your future Vice President
and class of 2016. Being VP will be an extraordinary experience and
journey that I can't wait to take on. To tell you more about myself my
favorite color is pink, and I love jokes - even the bad ones. Some of my
goals are to get more volunteering opportunities and unify the club
more. I find a value in getting to know everyone and working more as
a team. Let's make this year count and have an amazing time. See
you soon Key Clubbers! :)
Hello, my name is Cynthia Aguilar, I am glad to say that I feel honored
to be serving as your next treasurer. As treasurer, aside from dealing
with club finances and fees, I would like to take an even bigger
role, your friend! We are key club, and we should act like it! I want to
be able to walk into a room and talk to whoever and whenever as if
we've known each other forever! It's important that everyone puts in as
much work as humanly possible, we are capable of being the best, so
why not try? My goals as a person is just to be successful, but what is
success? There's honestly not an exact answer, you could ask ten dif-
ferent people and you'd get ten different answers. But for me, success
is just being happy, healthy, and stable. I absolutely love playing sports!
If anyone would like to join me for a run, let me know, we can work
something out. I love Albert Einstein and I’m a boy band enthusiast, I
absolutely love fruits, all kinds! I'm not much of an interesting person, so
I'll leave you with my favorite quote of all time:
"Any man who can drive safely while kissing a pretty girl is simply
not giving the kiss the attention it deserves. " -Albert Einstein

Hi lovelies, I’m Evangeline Matley (or
Angie as most of you know me) and
I’m excited to be your incoming
2014-2015 bulletin editor! I promise
to represent our club well and dedi-
cate my skills as a writer and pho-
tographer to this position.. Some
scattered aspects about me; I play
guitar and ukulele, I’m an active
member in HOSA and plan on con-
tinuing my education at OHSU in
pursuit of becoming an obstetrician,
I tend to “go where the wind takes
me” easily moving from one task or
place to another, and I’d like to
think I’m a friendly person, so don’t
be afraid to chat it up. :)
Hey~! It's Kim. I'm going to
be your upcoming
secretary. I'm a freshman,
graduating with the class of
2017. I love food and
Korean dramas. I dislike
wasting food. I'm energetic
and fun once you get to
know me. My goal as
secretary is to help improve
our Key Club through many
ideas I have while also
having lots of fun! I'm very
open to anything so don't
be scared to just ask me for
anything. Hope to get to
know you all!
