LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR LETTER
Hey 26, and Happy November! I’ve heard about quite some impressive Trick or Treat for UNICEF fundraising over the last couple of weeks, I’m so proud of you all! Thank you to everyone to came out to the October DCM at the Jefferson Community Center, and a huge thank you to Cleveland High School for putting on such a successful event! Missed the DCM in October? No worries, the November DCM is well on its way! This month, we’ll be having a DCM in conjunction with Division 28’s Skate to Eliminate! So grab your skates, friends, and of course a completed medical form and join us at Sno-King Ice Arena in Renton for a coooool time. Hope to see you all there! As DCON is coming around the corner, it is almost time to elect the next lieutenant governor! If you are planning to run or have the slightest interest, please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions or concerns. I’d be happy to answer any questions :-)
In Love and Service, Christina Nguyen Lieutenant Governor or Division 26 Pacific Northwest District Key Club International

So now I have a question: Key Clubbers, How Do You Feel?
Y O U
I am writing to introduce myself, and wish you well in your new Key Club year. I will soon be starting a year as Kiwanis Lt. Governor in Division 26, just as Christina Nguyen is your Key Club Lt. Governor in Division 26. My big goals are to strengthen all clubs in Division 26 through growth in membership, service, and community involvement, and activities with sponsored Key Clubs are really important to those goals. I will be meeting with Christina regularly, and working with her to make sure that our Division 26 Kiwanis Clubs are all working together with their Key Clubs. This includes sponsorship, leadership guidance, and working together on fundraising and service projects. Thank You all for being involved with Service through Key Club!
