November DCM

By Ethan Hong | Whitney Key Club

I hope everyone has had a nice November and a safe Thanksgiving. I also hope all the seniors are still standing after an important month for college applications! There were many things to reflect on last month and many things to be thankful for. I, for one, am very thankful to all who attended November DCM! The theme of this division council meeting was “Keysgiving at Home,” where members were able to join a virtual meeting and see other members from Division 30 South. We had a nice meeting and talked about past and future events, including upcoming fundraisers to support the Pediatric Trauma Program! After that, one of our Division Spirit Coordinators, Nathan Mai, led a riddle activity, where members entered in the chat the answers to riddles given by Nathan. This activity was fun and interactive, and I enjoyed it very much! The last part of the DCM was a service activity where members could write cards to different individuals. As one of your Division Service Project Coordinators, I helped to explain the activity and how to record your hours for your secretary to mark. This event was unique as there were two different places you could send cards to! The first option was an event called “Letters of Love,” where members could write a letter to an elder who might be lonely this holiday season. The second event was writing Thanksgiving Cards to special-needs individuals. Both of these events were called upon so not only do members have the opportunity to write to either or, but both groups of people will have some Thanksgiving cheer this month. This concluded the DCM, and it was quite memorable! The next Division Council Meeting is planned to be on December 19, 2020, so be sure to look out for an email and RSVP to attend. DCM’s are lots of fun and you would not want to miss out; I hope to see you then!
