L E T T E R From the Lt. G Hi Owlets! The month of November is just rolling around, and I hope you all had a successful Trick-or-Treat to Eliminate on Halloween. This month will be focused on DCON preparation; clubs should start planning, budgeting, and fundraising for the biggest event of the year that will be taking place from March 18-20, 2016. (See page 16 for more information.) In addition, elections for the next Lt. G is coming up! If you are interested in running for higher office or think that someone has the potential, there will be more information about elections at a future DCM. This is a very rewarding and unique experience, so make sure to get more information if you are interested! Finally, the November DCM this month will be a joint D44/45 DCM. We will be making no-sew fleece blankets to donate to the homeless shelter and also Eliminate jars for donations. Twice the division means twice the fun- make sure to invite all your friends, and everyone is welcome to attend! (Page 9 for more information). Remember to mail in your collected donations from Trick-or-Treating to Kiwanis International, and have a great Thanksgiving! In Love and Service,
Michelle Chang Lieutenant Governor Division 45 Pacific Northwest Key Club International (360)602-2010 michellechang98629@gmail.com
