A Message From Your LTG

THE K ANG KEY

Hey, Division 1!

It’s been an extremely busy and eventful summer! But it’s now time to welcome in a new school year and the fresh Fall season. The Fall Regional Training Conferences just passed, and Fall Rally is coming up very soon! I hope that you’re all prepared to Swing in the Jungle of Service and to have an awesome remainder of the service year! I hope that we will be able to increase attendance at district events and motivate more people to be even more involved in this outstanding organization.

I hope that you are all having a great beginning of the school year!

If you ever have any questions, comments, or concerns, feel free to contact me at any time. See you all very soon!

Yours in Caring and Service,

Cecilia Kang Division 1 Lieutenant Governor

Regional Training Conference RECAP

ALL THREE OF THE FALL REGIONAL TRAINING Conferences were held in September at different locations on different dates. Key Clubbers from all over the district were able to attend insightful workshops to learn more about their positions, the charities we as a district help, Key Club as a whole, and so much more!

Every RTC began with an opening session where Key Clubbers listened to speeches given about Dues, Advocacy, Service Partners, NJ District Projects, Key Leader, Fall Rally, District Convention, and International Convention. Students

were then free to attend 4 different workshops that were presented by the New Jersey District Board. Lunch was served once the workshops were over, and then there were raffles.

Host club recognition (Host clubs listed below) and Adjournment shortly followed. If you were not able to attend any of the Regional Training Conferences, talk to your lieutenant governor about what you missed and what you can do to learn more about Key Club! If you are an underclassman, be sure to try to attend the Regional Training Conferences next service year!
