Keystone focuses on three core areas: community service, academic success, career preparation. Members plan and organize their own community service projects, social events, and fundraisers throughout the school year. The Ballard Keystone Club meets Mondays from 6-7 PM, September through June. Teens considering joining Keystone are always welcome to visit any of our weekly meetings.
