dlt's notes krezzia basilio // executive assistant
HI-YA Division 13 South! A huge congratulations to everyone who survived the first half of the term! Whether you were an officer handling Fall Rally, dues, RTC, weekly meeting, and member retention or if you were a first-time member experiencing your first service events and your first fall rally, I am extremely proud of all of you! I am also extremely proud of us for obtaining and finally winning that Spirit Stick at fall rally! After 3 years of experiencing fall rally, this third one was really amazing! Now that you have seen how BIG and IMPACTFUL key club is, it is important to realize that there is more to key club than just Fall Rally! There are monthly service and social events such as DCMs and tree plantings or marathons, conclave (the election of your LTG), CTC (Candidate Training Conference), DCON (District Convention, Rose Float (California Wide Service event), and so much more! Keep serving ninjas, we’re halfway there!
mia sam // executive assistant Hey Ninjas! 2018 is coming to an end, meaning we have 4 months of this term left! As you already know, our busiest season of the year has passed. This means we need to work towards keeping member activeness to it's maximum potential! Continue to remind your members that events like Rose Float Decorating, Tree Plantings, and DCON are in the near future. Aside from Key Club business, I hope you've all had a wonderful year. To our seniors, best of luck with your final application processes and in the time period where you wait for your acceptance letters. We entered this year strong, so let's end it strong as well! I wish you all a happy holiday season and a happy new year! I love you all <3
vittina ibanez // executive assistant Hey there ninjas! I hope you all have been doing well with everything going on in your lives! I just wanted to say good luck to all the seniors applying for college and I wish everyone a great upcoming holiday season. This is the perfect opportunity to catch up and spend some much needed time with the people you love. Holiday break is coming up soon and I hope you all get to relax and give time to yourself, but I also want you all to remember that this is a time for giving to others. Serving and doing good for your community is a great way to give back, so I hope to see you all at upcoming events!
