hello! Hey NewToRocksey! Happy February! I hope you all are doing well and your new years resolutions have stuck! The first week of February will be when the International Council will be meeting in Washington DC. We will be planning ICON, doing committee work, and exploring DC! This month is alos Black History Month, so I implore you to read and be aware of the happenings in your communities! Although the month of February is short, there is a lot that you can do to end off your term with a BANG!

During the month of February, there will be a couple of events to look out for, like the opening of the SECOND YOF cycle, available one on one monthly calls with me, the global leadership certificate, oppurtinities with our new partner Schoolhouse, scholarships for seniors, and District Conventions! As I mention in the past few newsletters, one thing that you should keep an eye out for is Contests and Awards and/or elections. Make sure you understand the rubric for your contests/awards and get ready to showcase your talents. I encourage you all to participate, wether it be a distinguished officer award or participating in the talent show! If you are curious and want to run for any higher officers this year, feel free to reach out, and I can help you! If you would like me to present or attend at your DCM, socials or meetings, please feel free to contact me. All that being said, I am here to help and serve you, so don't hesitate to reach out to me at any time via our sistrict instagram @newtorocksey or at aliya.ali@keyclub.org. Happy February! Yours in Friendship and Service,
