Division 26 South | 11.7 | Giving Thanks All Month Long

LETTER FROM YOUR DTEyour dte

I can't believe that the first semester of school is almost over D: Thanksgiving break is literally next week and daylight savings actually sucks so much. It gets dark at 5:30pm now? Like dang. Also finals are coming up too (lowkey need to study soon) and I'm physically not prepared. November is always a slow month yet there is still so much to do. On a happier note, October was super fun with RTC & FRN and I'm so ready for the next upcoming events.

hi devils! (｡•ᴗ-)✧

MONTHLY CLUBmonthly club

monte vista

This month, Monte Vista was able to participate in Fall Rally North! Our member of the month was Thaddeus Francyzk; he showed up to meetings consistently and was the most active member in the club. Congratulations to Thaddeus! In terms of projects, the club continued Charity Miles and Pause For. In the future, we hope to increase member participation with more service projects!

This month was definitely another stressful one for us, especially with SATs and things in school starting to increase in difficulty. For that reason, we limited the amount of service events this month and focused more on division events attendance. We are in the process of planning an Interkey with Quarry Lane and hopefully we will get that done by next month! We have finally edited out roster to be most recent and we can't wait to start to collect dues! (our school has a specific way of doing so) Hopefully we can promote enough to the point where we earn more members throughout the year and keep them when elections come around! So far, our member attendance has been pretty strong and we want to be more regular with meetings and service events if time permits.

RECAPS recaps

ll Rally North was held at Six Flags Discovery ngdom, CA, on October 22nd, 2022. FRN is an nt, with all divisions from the North of the CNH ict, where they all help raise money for the PTP gram. I spent the day with my friends from my d sister divisions, making new friends along the y to rides. We bonded during the long rides and ared screams of exhilaration within the three utes of the rides. My Key Club memories would eeting a DVMT team member, whom I would not been able to meet had I not gone to FRN. I also yed going through Freight Fest with my friends e they would get scared quickly and be chased mummies. From FRN, I learned that you can have t of fun while helping out people in need. From e hundreds of donations to help a good cause, ng a good time with friends afterward felt like a reward for a good deed.

We had a club meeting this month and it wa great opportunity for members to bond, wh the officers covered materials from the goo slides. We started off by playing hangman we waited for people to get lunch and arri Hangman was really fun and whoever gues the word right would get a lollipop since we extra ones left over from club fair. This wa great bonding activity and allowed member interact with each other. We then went over google slides and practiced some cheers for This meeting was really fun and I loved see everyone!

N this year was pretty fun. There were many pretty spirit sticks and a bunch of ople. I loved seeing everyone dressed up their division colors and spirit gear! eryone did so well and it was really nice eeting everyone. Hearing the different eers and seeing the spirit from each vision was amazing. Even though our vision didn’t win, I loved the energy and ople around me, which made this perience enjoyable. After the cheers, lots people went to get food and then go on des. There were so many fun rides and finitely a lot of photos being taken as ell. This was a great opportunity to bond th others and I remember constantly eing asked, “How do you feel?” Overall, I ink this year’s FRN was a success and I had lots of fun.
