The Platypus Official Newsletter of Division 50 Volume I Issue VII
Hey Key Clubbers, I hope you have all had a great start of the new school year. This month our focus should be on paying dues, recruiting members, and of service .As you may know, I will be visiting each club this school year. Please report to me with what date works for you. Keep in mind secretaries that reports are due each 5th of the month, so far only one club is turning them in that is unacceptable, reports keep the district and myself informed on the progress of your clubs, so please start turning them in! In Caring and Service, Jayleen Leon Lieutenant Governor of Division 50
