![]() Horton High School KAY Members Attend 2017 Regional KAY Conference By Tatum Lockwood, KAY President Nine members of the Horton High School KAY Club attended the Area 1 KAY Regional Conference on Monday, October 30th at the Turner School District. The following student delegates who participated in the Regional 1 Conference are: Tatum Lockwood, Kailea Smith, Grete Olsen, Elanie Vanderweide, Josie Santos, Sarah Hutfles, Tabitha Banks, Ally Bottom, Lorena Torres, and Horton KAY Sponsor, Margaret Krogmann. The Regional Area One KAY conference took place at Kansas City Turner High School. Our club officers learned what other clubs are doing to help in their community and how we can apply that to our own community. We also learned more about central leadership skills. We learned it’s OK to stay safe but it’s better to “Set Sail and LEAD-YER-SHIP.” The conference offered opportunities in collaborating with other student leaders from neighboring clubs who shared successes and challenges as well as an exchange of ideas. This year’s conference inspired Horton High School delegates to return to our own club to challenge their local members in striving to reach higher goals. We found out about fun upcoming activities that take place in the KAY community. As a club we have received the Red Award for the 2016-2017 school year, Horton High School KAY members are excited to set high goals in working towards the next higher awards of Blue or Gold Awards for the 2017-2018 school year. Additionally, KAY club members are excited to participate in the July 2018 Summer Camp at the Rock Springs facility outside of Junction City, KS. The Kansas Association for Youth (KAY) is a leadership building and character building program directed by the Kansas State High School Activities Association. This nationally acclaimed organization provides students opportunities to assume their citizenship responsibilities that enrich their personalities through well organized programs. The Horton High School KAY programs emphasize four areas of service: school, community, nation, and world.
