Yes! We accept members year-round! We are always looking for more people who want to join our cause and make the world a better place! Only a couple of differences apply between you and those who joined early in the year. If you join and pay your dues you will be considered an official member according to the Texas-Oklahoma District and International guidelines. This simply means that you would receive a membership card, access to online resources, be eligible for senior stoles and medals, and be able to attend our annual district convention, LEDCON. If you join AFTER dues , you CAN still be a member and participate with us. The only difference is that only GHS Key Club considers you a member and not the upper powers. However, your service hours still count for you and you can attend every meeting, service event, and ceremony you'd like. 

Yes, it does, BUT we NEVER turn anybody away just because they are unable to pay their dues. All members are required to pay their $25 dues. This helps pay for the fees the club has to pay to the state and international organizations in order to be considered an official "Key Club." These dues also help pay for the district convention we take members to in the spring as well as many other services. All members are also required to pay their shirt dues for an official GHS Key Club shirt we wear at events. HOWEVER, if a member is unable to cover their dues, they can talk to Mr. Hinchey and we will offer financial assistance for them. We never want anyone to not participate in Key Club simply because of money. Just talk to us!

Yes! Here at GHS Key Club, we want members who keep their minds active and have a diverse portfolio. Our members are very involved both academically and in extracurriculars. We only meet twice a month, every other Tuesday, for about 20 minutes. Ideally, you should attend both meetings. However, we only require that you attend at least one a month to be a member. This allows our students to be very involved in other activities. In terms of service projects, we normally try to schedule at least half of them on the weekends. This allows our members to stay busy during the week and be able to attend service events on the days they are free. However, we also have events on the weekdays, either after school or occasionally during class. Whatever your situation may be, just talk to us and we will figure something out!

NO! It does not matter what grade you are in. It is never too early or too late to join us! We have students who join as soon as they enter high school. We have students who don't join until their senior year! Whatever your case may be, we have members of all ages, so we invite you to give it a try!
