Greetings from your LTG Happy November everybody! Last month we celebrated Halloween with a little twist of service, next month is all about togetherness and being thankful for what we have. Be sure to thank all the people in your life that helped you get over the mountain when you were completely out of breath. As a club dedicate a time this month to write thank you letters to the people that have helped you, or positively impacted you.

As you all know it is almost time for LTG elections! If you are interested in running for LTG please email me immediately! I will be doing club visits to help caucus if there are more than one candidate that would like to run from each school. Check in with your officers to get the date of your club’s caucusing meeting. I’m excited to meet all of you!

Also I hope you all are counting down the days till DCON 2015! The call to convention was released on Tuesday the 4th and I am excited to take you all on a space adventure! This year we are gearing up with poms or noise makers and decking out in red and black to show our red panda pride. In addition to sprit gear, there will be a poll for Tshirts beginning Monday the 10th to Saturday the 15th so stay tuned for that! Also clubs should start fund raising for DCON now!

My assistants and I will begin to hold divisional fund raisers.

Like the many students who are grieving over the loss of the few students at Marysville Pilchuck High School, I would like to highlight this event in my newsletter today. It is a very sensitive topic for many people because it is only a few miles from where we are. I send my best regards to those who have lost a brother, son, a friend and a speedy recovery to those who were injured.

Thank you all for an amazing term so far!

In Service and Care,

In Care, Love and Service, Lillian Sam Key Club International, Divison 22/24

Why Did You Join?

“Well I joined Key Club because I have been a girl scout for 13 years and a volunteer for the Make-a-Wish Foundation for ten so philanthropy has always been part of my life, so I joined Key Club to do more volunteer work and to find people who share the same values as me” --Kim Perdue, Division 27 Woodinville President “I moved here from Germany, and in Germany

they have very strict laws on volunteering. I wanted to impact my community, so when I heard about key club after moving to the states, I knew I had to make up for 15.5 years that I couldn't volunteer!”

--Lexie Holden, Division 30

“I initially joined Key Club because I was told it would look good on my college applications. But after first hand experience with volunteer events, key club rallies, dcms, and Dcon I was so motivated to join my club's board to gain a further depth of the key club experience.”

--Jon Dieu, Division 32, Hazen Editor

What is DCON exactly?

DCON is a convention where Key Clubbers all over the Pacific North West come together for three days to celebrate service and volunteers! Get ready for spirit wars, chants, and an out of this world dance! During your time at DCON you have the opportunity of meeting new friends, attend amazing workshops, train your officers for the coming year, enjoy live entertainment and most of all elect your new district board members.

ANNOUNCEMENTS 1.) DCON is just around the corner and as a Division we are holding 5 fundraisers, we will split the money equally among the 5 clubs who are eligible to attend DCON only if they send at least one person to each fundraiser. Each fundraiser will be lead by one officer.

Hey everyone, I just wanted to tank and congratulate you all on the wonderful works you guys are doing! First of all thank you so much for participating in Trick or Treat For Unicef, I know I had fun doing that!

Also I would like to congratulate you guys on all the hard work you are doing for this project. As of right now every 11 minutes a baby dies from MNT, the frequency of babies are a lot further apart. Before this project started it was 9 minutes every baby dies. This is 25 babies less every day since this project has started. Let keep lowering and lowering this number until we have zero babies that have to suffer from this terrible disease. Thank you all so much and keep up the hard work!
