SFCS Juniors Receive District Key Club Awards

HEADLINE STORY
Monday, April 19, 2004


Holly Seppala

Two SFCS juniors, Holly Seppala and Ben Van Dyke recently received the prestigious award of outstanding officers at the regional convention for the Carolinas District of Key Club International held in Durham, North Carolina.

The Key Clubs of North and South Carolina are composed of thirty-six divisions. Shannon Forest Christian School’s Key Club is one of nine clubs in the Greenville area. At the recent convention, each division recognized the outstanding officers of their division for the 2003- 2004 school year. These officers were recognized because of their outstanding fulfillment of their duties, above and beyond the traditional role of the office. This year’s District 29 award went to Van Dyke, SFCS Key Club president and Seppala, who serves as the SFCS Key Club secretary.


Ben Van Dyke

It is quite an honor for our school to have received both the Outstanding President and the Outstanding Secretary awards. It is also quite unusual for such a small club, especially a charter club, to receive these awards. We’ve had a fun year full of learning experiences and I feel that we have done a lot to be active in our community. But, I look forward to next year with the hope that we can go above and beyond the precedent set this year and become an example to our community as we witness through Christian service. Everyone in the SFCS Club should be proud. Leaders are only as good as their followers and club officers are only as good as their members. SFCS members are truly outstanding! They have risen to the challenge and, more than anything, they’re responsible for the club receiving these awards. The honor belongs to the entire SFCS Key Club.
