SUMMER UPDATE

Hello fellow Avatars! It has been a very long time since our last update here on Tumblr and we sincerely apologize for it!  Now that it is the summer before the next school year begins, it also means time to start FRESH. We have updated the format of our Tumblr page so feel free to take a look and give us your feedback. From now on, we will be updating all of our Social Media more regularly, using Tumblr as our main outlet of communication (besides email) with our fellow Key Clubbers. Remember, if you have any questions, feel free to contact us at [email protected]. Alrightys, that will be it for now. Have a sunkissed rest of the summer :D!
