UPCOMING | NOVEMBER DCM: AWAKE-A-THON
What is Awake-A-Thon?
The Awake-A-Thon is a fundraiser for the Pediatric Trauma Program where members will stay up for 12 hours together, while playing games, eating food, and making memories! It will also include the November DCM, a spirit session, and service projects, so service hours can be gained! This event will be taking place the weekend before Fall Rally, so what better way to get hyped with your Key Club Ohana than a huge sleepover without the sleep!
Why Should YOU Attend?
This is open to members of the clubs in our division so you will be spending a whole night with both old and new friends! Create new experiences with your Key Club family, take part in service projects, and pull an all-nighter! It will also have the last spirit session before Fall Rally so that means it's the last opportunity to perfect our cheers. If you are attending Fall Rally then I highly recommend taking part in this event. We will be having activities all night so though you will get tired, you will not be bored!
How Do YOU Pay For the Cost of the Awake-A-Thon?
Since this is a fundraiser for the Pediatric Trauma Program, we are requesting each member strive to raise at least $10. More is appreciated, since all of the funds will be going towards PTP, but any amount will be accepted! This money can be raised through sponsors or donations from family members, friends, or anyone willing to donate to the cause. For example, you can ask people to "sponsor" you by paying you $2 for every hour that you stay awake. (12 hours x $2 per hour = $24) The member with the most amount of money in donations will get a special spirit stick. Money will be collected upon entry, so don't forget to raise the money beforehand! We have also attached a form for you to collect donations from sponsors that you can give to us to keep track of funds! Additionally, a PTP infographic has been attached as well to inform potential sponsors of the importance of the Pediatric Trauma Program.
Chaperones:
Since this is an overnight event, the chaperone rule will be strictly enforced. Chaperones must be 21 or older and stay for the whole event. The ratio for overnight events is 1 chaperone for every 10 members. The chaperones must also be gender specific. If you have any female members going, there must be a female chaperone, and if there are any male members going, there must be a male chaperone. Presidents, be sure that your club has the adequate amount of chaperones or members will not be allowed to check in and must leave the school grounds. Make sure to check the sign in sheet and ask other schools' chaperones if they will be willing to chaperone your members if you do not meet the gender-specific requirements and they have open spots. Chaperones must be present before check-in can be completed.
Food:
Bring snacks and food to share throughout the night (potluck!) and make sure to write whatever you are bringing on the sign in sheet! This is extremely important in order for us to figure out what we need to bring. Food can include dinner, dessert, and breakfast items!
Logistics:
When? - November 3, 2018-November 4th, 2018
Where? - The Palmdale Aerospace Academy
Address - 3300 E Palmdale Blvd, Palmdale, CA 93550
Time? - 8:00PM-7:00AM (Note: It is Daylight Savings, therefore, this totals to 12 hours!)
Cost? - $10 suggested donation/admission fee; Chaperones do not need to pay, their presence is enough! Any donation will be accepted and appreciated.
Sign In:
You must sign in on the Google Sheets here no later than 6:00pm on Wednesday, October 31st. If you find out that you cannot attend but have already signed up, please remove your name from the sign in sheet no later than 6:00 PM on Wednesday, October 31st. Ensure that the names of the chaperones are there on the sheet as well. For an event such as this one, we must ensure we have adequate food and chaperones! Thus, it is absolutely imperative that you are responsible for putting your name on the sign in sheet and taking it off.
Service Project:
At Awake-A-Thon, we will be doing several service projects. We will be making bookmarks for children at the library, "Adopt Me!" bandanas for dog's at the animal shelter, and friendship bracelets for St. Jude's Hospital. We ask that you bring some markers, colored pencils, or crayons for the bookmarks as well as a new or old plain t-shirt for the bandanas.
Spirit Gear Making Session
The DLT and I will be leading 3 workshops on how to DIY spirit items: Tutus, Ribbon Leis, and Posters. Bring supplies if you would like to participate in any of these workshops!
Come in your comfiest pajamas! You are going to be there for twelve hours, so make sure your clothing choice is appropriate. Your clothes must be appropriate and meet the school's requirements or you will be sent home. If you are questioning whether or not you should wear an outfit, don't wear that outfit. Make sure to bring a change of clothes just in case!

Service Project: The Grateful Garment Project
The Grateful Garment Project is an organization that works to provide victims of sexual assault with new clothes when they visit a sexual assault response team facility, seek medical attention, or help from law enforcement to prevent further suffering due to a lack of clothes. Therefore, we ask that you bring a new pair of plain, white socks to decorate. The DLT will be providing puffy paint for everyone to make the socks more personal and colorful. Pro-tip: Visit your local Dollar Tree/99 Cent store and get a pair of white socks for a dollar!
