Her sentiment was echoed by Summitt, who said, “Throughout the years, we have been able to participate in several service opportunities as well as work with many different organizations in our community.”
Mathey said Key Club brought her leadership skills “to a new level” showing her and the entire club that “we can all play a part in easing others’ burdens.”
