Yours in Service, Rosa Lee
Dear Division 3C, Happy New Years! Can you believe it’s already 2019? It seems like 2018 started just yesterday. December was a packed month of finals, college applications, and volunteering- but also a month packed with holidays and relaxing. With the new year, let’s start thinking of club goals for the new semester and start planning for DCON! I recommend you to start fundraising for the event now, so that finances won’t prevent you from attending this super fun convention. If you need help coming up with fundraiser ideas, feel free to contact me!
Reminders Contact Information: Here is the club directory for the 2018-2019 Key Club year! This directory contains all of the contact information for this year’s officers of active clubs.
