Hey, Key Clubbers! If you haven’t met me yet my name is Philip Nokeo and I am the new lieutenant governor of Division 26! I was so happy to meet the people in our division at District Convention and for those who couldn’t join us at DCON, I hope you can come with us next year! I’m excited for the upcoming year and I hope to see everyone reppin’ D26 at my future DCMs and social events! I will also be hosting my first DCM this month and I hope everyone can make it! More information can be found on page 5. In this newsletter, you will receive info about upcoming events and international updates, among other news! If you have any questions about anything, just ask me, I’m always on my phone and on Facebook all the time, so please don’t hesitate to talk to me! In Dedication and Service, Philip Nokeo

District Convention Recap
Want to be part of the District Board? Interested in helping plan District Convention 2013? Our new Convention Chair, Denny Lim, is looking for a limited number of Convention Aides, who will assist him and the rest of the district board in planning next year’s District Convention! Convention Aides are required to attend all district board meetings, which are listed below. Please email me if you want an application, since it is due on April 12. Also, if you are currently a club officer and you are selected to be a Convention Aide, you must find a replacement for your officer position in your home club.
This year, District Convention was held from March 21st to March 24th at the DoubleTree Hotel in SeaTac, Washington. The theme was “Diving into service” and our division had over 100 attendees! As always, DCON was an unforgettable experience because we got to meet people from all over Alaska, Canada, Washington, Idaho, Oregon, and California, but convention was especially exciting for us because we sat in the front rows (Andy, the past convention aid was able to hook us up!) Thank you to everyone who represented division 26! ~
346 more days until District Convention 2013!

Upcoming Events April DCM Who: Anyone with an interest in Key Club! This includes people outside of our division and people who aren’t even in Key Club (yet)! Bring your faculty and Kiwanis advisors! What: Divisional Council Meeting When: Saturday, April 20, 2013 Where: Lincoln Park, located in West Seattle Why: To learn more about Key Club and to meet other Key Clubbers! I will also be updating everyone with a general overview of the upcoming year along with information about International Convention and Seattle Rally.

Who: Anyone who wants to help out a good cause! What: March for Babies When: Saturday, May 4th, 2013 Where: Seattle Center at the Fisher Pavilion Why: Every year, over half a million babies are born premature. March of Dimes’ goal is to prevent premature birth and help more of these babies to be born full grown and healthy. Because March of Dimes is partnered with Key Club International, I highly encourage each club to either participate in or volunteer for the walk. You can find more information or start your own team at www.marchforbabies.org. Let me know if you have any questions!
