Hello!

It’s me… Your LTG Hi Division 34!

Happy New Year! My new years resolution is to volunteer at more non-profits and work towards my career goals! What’s your new year’s resolution?

I hope everyone had a great winter break and ready to get back into the Key Club spirit! From DCMs to cub visits to DCON I hope everyone’s ready to shout their 34 pride! DCON is less than 3 months away and I’m sad to say my term is almost over! But until the very last second I promise to work hard to make it another great year of service!

Thank you to everyone who attended the LtG election rally and I hope to see everyone at the PreCon next month regardless if you'll be attending DCON or not!

Also as clubs are beginning to elect their new officers I hope you think about the future of your club and whether you want to be active as an officer. I promise you the opportunities are endless and I can’t wait to see clubs grow and continue to amaze the community.

In Caring and Service,

Angela Shin

From your Divisional Editor

Hel

Chuc Mung Nam Moi! Happy New Years Sharks!

I hope you're all having a fantastic start to your year. My New Years resolution this year is too big or go home! I'd love to hear what you have as your resolution! Besides that I hope everyone has had a successful election or is going to have one and that your innies and outties are putting down work!

Other than that Congratulations to Brittney Tran for becoming the next LTG, I wish you a successful and fun term!

Divisional Editor,

From your Social Media Coord.

Hello to all of the sharktastic members of D34!

I hope everyone had an amazing holiday, and is ready to get back into the swing of service in time for DCON; I know I’m Already excited. With preparing our new officers for their term, and planning service projects, everyone is super busy in Gig Harbor.

Speaking of service projects, I would love to be able to post photos to the D34 Instagram, but nobody is sending them in! So, I challenge everyone who reads this to send a photo to my email, and I will post it.

It can be anything from a photo at an event, or just a selfie at a club meeting.

Just tell me what service means to you, and I will include a shout out to whoever submits it. I hope to hear from you!

MEET THE 2016-2017 LIEU Hey Sharks!

I'm so happy to be your 2016-2017 Lieutenant Governor! I'll make sure to fulfill my duties as a lieutenant governor and put Key Club as my first priority (besides school).

Don't be afraid to ask me any questions, I don't bite! I love hearing other opinions and constructive criticisms from anyone! I want our division to be closer as a family so I'll let introduce myself a little more, I'm a Junior at Mount Tahoma, I was VP of key club at Mount Tahoma my sophomore year, my birthday is June 11th, and I love tennis!

Angela has done an amazing job as LTG and improved division 34 a lot, but there's never an end to improving so some goals I have for our division is to have our division grow more bigger, find more volunteer opportunities to offer, and have all of us be able to get out our comfort zones!

I believe all of us should have a chance to strive for big goals and achieve it! So to end on a good note, let's make this year a jaw dropping sharktastic year!

In caring and service Incoming Lieutenant Governor Brittney Tran

DID YOU KNOW? • 1 baby dies every 11 minutes from tetanus

• 24 Countries remain at risk for MNT

• A series of 3 doses of tetanus vaccine = immunity from tetanus • Woman + vaccine = protected baby • US$1.80 protects 1 woman and her future babies

$1.80 = To save 3 lives!

International Update from Greetings, Can you believe it? Christmas was just a few days ago and the new year is just around the corner. Time truly does fly. As we begin 2016, I urge you to take a step back and think about all of the great things that we achieved in 2015. Of course 2015 had its ups and downs – just like any other year – but I like to focus on the milestones that made this year the one to remember. The highlight for me is learning that I would be serving you all for the 2015-2016 service year! It was truly a time to remember and it will be the first thing that I think of when I remember 2015.

Since it is now the holiday season it is the perfect time to give back to those in your community . Over the break I will be volunteering at a local soup kitchens and food banks for those less fortunate in the new Jersey. I urge you all to try and focus on the giving par of the holiday season (though the receiving part isn’t bad either!). I also hope you all take some time for yourselves and to spend time with your family. You’ve all worked so hard, and you all deserve to relax! Happy holidays to you all!

Yours in caring and service, Devin Sun Key Club International Trustee
