Jiayun’s Journal LTG Update
Hello Key Club members and Kiwanians, As we welcome chilly days and lengthy nights, I hope you are all enjoying yourselves whether you are at work, at home, or at school. One of the most important things to keep in mind as we approach a busy season ahead is communication. It is the bond that holds everything together. Internal communication within a club is extremely important for to develop an efficient system for all. This includes officer-member, officer-committee head, faculty advisor-officer, and Kiwanis advisorofficer relations. Furthermore, external communication with the District helps every club keep up with District events and maintain their status as an active club of Key Club International. As LTG, I act as your liaison to the NJ District of KCI, therefore, feel free to contact me for any questions that you may have!
month, November also contains-- in my opinion-- my favorite week of the year: CSH/Key Club Week! As you all know, the first week of November was CSH/Key Club week. To celebrate, our division held the first of our Dine to Donates for our divisional Restaurant Month (see pg 4). In this issue of the Jiayun's Journal, you can learn a bit more about CSH and the ways you can help the NJ District reach our fundraising and service goals for this year. Please take the time to read this through and please do not hesitate to ask me anything. Have a great day!
In addition to it being a super busy Jiayun Fang
