Happy September! School has started and Autumn is soon to come. You know what else is soon to come? More chances to serve your home, school, and communities! First off, I would like to thank everyone who attended the Joint DCM with divisions 62, 64, 65E, and 65W! The "Amazing Race" was a success and to those who attended, did you find me? (Spoilers: I was at the waterfront!) Since school has just started for most of us, invite your friends to join Key Club! Past students and especially freshmen who don't know where to go yet are good people who should be introduced to Key Club! Anyway, let's have another spectacular month of service and I hope to see more of you at the September DCM. Brian Nguyen Divisional Assistant

I hope everyone had a good first day or week of school! The new school year means more opportunities for service. Fall is a great time for events. I can't wait to see what you guys are up to. Send me your photos! We recently had our joint DCM and it was awesome seeing all of you making new friends and interacting with key clubbers from other divisions. See you guys next DCM and have a good September.
Rachel Coyne Divisional Editor
Hello Division 66! It’s September! I know what you’re thinking, “what’s so good about September? There’s school and summer is over.” although school does start for most of you and summer does end, we must look beyond that to see what is going to continue during the school year: service. I hope you all are planning to go to your first Key Club meeting! You may see Brian, Rachel, and me floating around meetings so we can all get to know your Key Club, and of course, YOU, better! If you see us stop by your school, please do not hesitate to come up to us and say hello! We are looking forward to visiting your clubs. It’s time to FALL in love with service again, and I hope you guys do so by attending your Key Club meetings, service events/projects, and hopefully to all (if not all then some) of my upcoming DCMs!. This summer we did so much as a Division, from various club events such as fairs and marathons to the August DCM, attending Portland Rally, and of course, raising more money and awareness for The ELIMINATE Project, I am so proud of us energetic and enthusiastic giraffes! Again, I am looking forward to the upcoming school year and seeing what Key Club, Division 66, YOU, can do. Remember a little goes a long way! On side note, make sure to turn in your club fees and sign up for the best organization ever, Key Club. Yours in Caring Service, Bailey Chen 2015-2016 Lieutenant Governor or Division 66

AUGUST DC
“THE A On August 29th, Division 62, 64, 65E, 65W, and 66 held a joint DCM together in the heart of Portland,. Oregon. The theme was “The Amazing Race”, racing to the finish line to receive a mason jar full of candy that the will be reused to collect donations at local shops. CONGRATUALTIONS GREEN TEAM! I hope you will recycle those jars and use them to raise awareness for ELIMINATE! We also hashtagged #PNWKEYCLUB and #PNWelimin8 to raise more awareness! Also, thank you so those who brought clothes to donate, Friends of Seasonal and Service Workers will appreciate it lots!
WE RAISED $39. 17 FOR ELIMIINATE! 6

“She has been doing a huge majority of the work preparing for the new year. She spent her own money on the flyers and has done so much for our club that the rest of us barely have anything to do” Thank you so much, Amanda! 8
