History:
Back in 1925, the first 11 charter members met in Sacramento, California. The school administrators were also Kiwanis members and spread the idea far and wide to other principles. Kiwanis Clubs all over the country began asking Sacramento Kiwanis Club about it. Within 15 years, 50 clubs were functioning in California, Louisiana, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Washington. In 1943, the Florida Association invited Key Clubs from other states to attend and soon the International Association of Key Clubs was formed. Malcolm Lewis was elected as the first president. In 1946, the Constitution & Bylaws were formed and Key Club International was officially launched. The l1 members grew to over 262, 000 and continues to grow today. And, the Sacramento High School Key Club is still an active club.
