PB&J Making

MT, Kalani Key Club, D22H

On August 28th, both new and old members alike participated in Kalani Key Club’s Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwich Making Event, where, as stated in the title, students worked together to produce plenty of PB&J sandwiches. The purpose of this sandwich making event was to donate them to the Institute of Human Services, where they give out various kinds of food to the homeless and individuals in need, which is a great way for members to give back to their community. During this event, in their groups of four, members first started by conferring among themselves who would pass the bread, apply the jelly, apply the peanut butter, and who would package the finished sandwiches. While the officers placed pieces of plastic wrap onto everyone's desks to keep the classroom clean, groups would often move their desks closer together for maximum efficiency, as well as for an easier sandwich making experience. Members seemed to have quite an enjoyable time during this event, laughing at each other's works, and collaborating with one another to produce the best PB&J sandwiches. They had engaging conversations with each other, and got the chance to meet new people. After all the supplies were used up, students wrote small words of encouragement and happy messages onto sticky notes, which were then taped onto the sandwich bags. Overall, this event proved to be a huge success, producing about 2 big bags full of PB&J sandwiches, and allowed for members to socialize and get to know each other.
