Message from your Lt. G Hello Ninja-Panda! My name is Michelle Yang, and I will be serving as Division 13/15/17’s Lieutenant Governor for 2018-2019. As a Lieutenant Governor, my duties include serving as a liaison between the District and the clubs and assisting clubs with any issues they are having. I can’t wait to work with you all and bring our Division to greater heights! This term, I wanted to focus on informing our Division, increasing active membership and supporting club executives. I almost forgot; welcome to the 2018-2019 Key Club term! We’re in for a term full of ups, downs, laughing, crying and all the good stuff in between! It’s going to be hard, but most definitely rewarding and I’ll make sure to be there every step of the way. April is a fresh start and a chance to find your passion in Key Club. The momentum you create now will be what propels you forward in the rest of the term. Key Club has always played a huge role in my life from the moment I stepped into grade 8. Through my many changes, accomplishments and failures, it has always been there for me. A constant. I could always rely on Key Club being there regardless of what was going on around me. Anyways, I can’t wait to meet every single one of you and make lasting memories together! In Love and Service,
Michelle Yang

The 69th annual Pacific Northwest District Convention was held in Portland, Oregon this year and over two thousand members of our District traveled there to attend! It was a weekend full of excitement and pride as Key Clubbers all over the Pacific Northwest gathered together to celebrate our accomplishments over this past year. We were able to meet other friendly key clubbers, attend various workshops, elect this year's district board, and scream out our division's cheers! We learned new ideas about Key Club, service, and how our impact can change the world. Don't miss out on the chance to attend next year, it truly is an amazing experience and showcases Key Club in a way like no other! This weekend left us with unforgettable memories to last a lifetime. Hope to see you all at the 70th annual DCON in Seattle, Washington! -Lauren Lowe, Killarney Secondary

District Governor
Ingrid Redford Hello, Pacific Northwest! My name is Ingrid Redford and I am both honored and humbled to be your 2018-2019 District Governor. Key Club has the ability to make an impact on hundreds of thousands of people. Over the past year, our district contributed over 92,000 service hours through our service to our homes, schools, and communities. As Key Clubbers, we make not only a large impact on our world, but also on individuals. With this being said, Key Club has shaped me into the person I am today and has taught me the value of service, leadership, and commitment. I plan to utilize my experience and insight as a member, club secretary, lieutenant governor, committee chair, and now, a District Governor, to implement growth and expand our district. My goals for this year are centered around a five-part plan that will advance our district progress through communication, resources, enhancing knowledge, growth, and leadership. These goals are focused on the inverted pyramid structure of Key Club, placing the emphasis on how we as a district can further serve our members, while fulfilling the mission of Key Club: service. Myself, along with the other Executive Officers, are here to serve you and want to hear voices from throughout our district. If you ever have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out to me or the other Executive Officers. We are just a text, message, call, or email away. Thank you and I look forward to meeting, talking, and working with you throughout the year! In Care and Service, Ingrid Redford District Governor Pacific Northwest District Key Club International p: (360) 783-7496 | e: governor@pnwkeyclub.org

District Secretary
Brandon Orick Greetings, PNW! My name is Brandon Orick, and I’ll be serving as your 2018-2019 District Secretary. I am beyond excited to engage in this position and grow this coming year. I believe my past experience as Lieutenant Governor of Division 70 has equipped me with the skills necessary to fulfill my position on the Executive Board. By utilizing monthly Secretary Reports to pinpoint specific issues that individual clubs are facing, the Executive Board can formulate strategies to help address these concerns. Serving as your secretary, I will act as a liaison between your club and the PNW District. I will work to insure that each club in need of assistance is heard and their issues are addressed. Through Key Club, I have learned the true meaning of service, and the true meaning of caring for one another. As secretary, I will be able to work closely with individual clubs and even individual members, creating strong relationships. I want to focus on being accessible to anyone who needs information or assistance, ultimately bridging the gap between the district and club level. I will strive to keep bettering the organization that has given me so much. In Key Club, no goal is too high and opportunities are endless. I am inspired by Key Clubbers on a daily basis and am ecstatic to be able to work alongside you for this next year.
Please do not hesitate to reach out to me, I am willing to help any way I can! In friendship and service, Brandon Orick District Secretary Pacific Northwest District Key Club International Phone: (503) 421 - 0189 | Email: secretary@pnwkeyclub.org

District Treasurer
Andy He
Hello, PNW! My name is Andy He and I am beyond excited to serve as your 2018-2019 District Treasurer! I believe that having served as club treasurer for my own Key Club has given me the skills and the confidence to assist and lead treasurers across our great District. Throughout this year, I hope to set up a network of communications between myself and all club treasurers, enabling the sharing of successful strategies and tips so that we may all better execute the duties of treasurer.
One of my main goals is to structure the role of a club treasurer to encompass three core areas: basic duties, fundraising, and membership. Some of the basic duties of a club treasurer include a detailed understanding of the dues-paying process, the chartering process of a club, and maintaining the club budget. Fundraising tasks would involve utilizing available resources to enhance the quality of service projects and fundraisers, or even applying for a PNWOF grant through the District. Finally, the membership component of a treasurer's role incorporates analyzing club strategies for active member involvement, club growth through recruitment, and discussing ways to boost membership retention with other club officers. Please remember that I am always here as a resource for all of your questions and concerns throughout this whole year. I know that dues season for treasurers can get very hectic, so please do not hesitate to reach out to me to request guidance on specific issues, offer tips, or if you just want to talk in general. Here’s to a fantastic year ahead! In Friendship and Service, Andy He District Treasurer Pacific Northwest District Key Club International
