Key Club students
recognized for service
Thirty-nine Greenville High School Key Club members were among the
hundreds of students honored at the annual GHS Underclass Awards
Assembly Thursday.
The 2010-2011 Key Club, a student-led community service organization
sponsored by Greenville High School and Greenville Kiwanis, performed
an unprecedented 2087 hours of community and club service. For the
first time, the club recognized five tiers of service: Century Club
(100 hours of personal service or more), Platinum (75 hours or more),
Gold (50 hours or more), Silver (25 hours or more) and Volunteer (13
hours or more).
All 2010-11 Officers received the Century Club honor: Kent Holmes,
President; Angela Borgerding, Vice President; Prital Mehta, Secretary;
Claire Sherman, Treasurer and Jenilee Braun, Newsletter Editor.
In addition to Century Club recognition, Mariah Reitz was also
recognized as the Key Club International Div. 3 Ohio District Lt.
Governor for 2010-11. GHS Junior Natasha Swank, recognized this year
for Gold Service, was elected Div. 3 Lt. Governor for 2011-12 in April.
The Div. 3 Lt. Gov. is responsible for local Key Clubs in the District:
Tri-Village, Greenville, Covington, Troy, Piqua and Miami East.
Two students – Rebecca Braun and Daniel Cox – received the Platinum

2011-2012 Key Club President Claire Sherman announced a sign up sheet –
with cookies and cup cakes – for next year’s club members immediately
following the assembly… students packed the area around the table to
take advantage of the announcement.
Whether the sign-ups matched the cookie snatching remains to be seen.
This year’s GHS Key Club tackled 26 community service projects,
including several Greenville Township Cemetery Cleanups, Kiwanis Darke
County Fair Gate 5 and Pancake Breakfast fundraisers, Kiwanis Christmas
Bell Ringing, Trick or Treat for FISH, Rake and Run, Prairie Days and
more.
2011-12 Key Club officers are Claire Sherman, President; Scott Wirrig,
Vice President; Jenilee Braun, Bulletin Editor; Pankti Bhavsar and
Cierra Whitesel, co-Secretaries; and Daniel Cox, Treasurer. GHS
Principal Chris Mortensen is the club’s Academic Advisor; Bob Robinson
is the Kiwanis Advisor.
Students at the annual Underclass Awards Assembly – including many Key
Club members – were honored for academics (Academicians and Honor
Roll), Academic Quiz Bowl Team, Athletic Excellence, Automotive
Technology Skills USA, Language Arts Writing, Naval Junior Reserve
Officer Training, Student Council, Foreign Language Achievement (French

The
GHS Annual Underclass Awards Assembly was an opportunity for students,
faculty and
community members to honor high achievers in a variety of areas.

After the assembly, students flock the Key Club table for cookies, cup cakes
and to sign up for the 2011-2012 school year. It remains to be seen if sign-ups match
the number of cookies and cup cakes taken.
