Letter from Your LTG Dear Division 21 Key Club, First and foremost, I would like to thank YOU for all of your hard work! Thanks to the phenomenal leadership of Selina, our immediate past Lieutenant Governor, and your never-ending dedication, our division has grown so much, in many different aspects! I have witnessed this while working by Selina’s side as an Executive Assistant, and all of you have never failed to amaze me with your intensity and passion to serve. In all honesty, to be the Lieutenant Governor of such an extraordinary division is intimidating at times. I received many positive comments about our division from other LTGs at DCON, and it’s an honor to be serving you as your helping hand. However, there is always room for improvement, and I believe that you and I, together, can make whatever change necessary, to make our members feel even more welcome, even more involved. So perhaps as we celebrate our wonderful accomplishments, we will also take a moment to ask ourselves, “What’s next on the road?” With that being said, I want to hear your ideas- whether or not you are a “dedicated member”(Hey, Ben from Monroe!) or an outstanding officer! So please don’t hesitate to contact me or say hello when you happen to see me. Please keep reading through the newsletter, as there are important information in all the pages! With Love & Service, Jessica Bae of Division 21 425.248.7258 jessicabae.pnw21@gmail.com “

“Hey Key Clubbers, are you still alive? I know I almost died from DCON (in the good way), but did you? If you lost your voice, then chances are you did D21 proud... I mean we did WIN THE SPIRIT STICK!!!!!!!!!!! No big deal tho..... XD I hope you all had as much fun as I did, from the dancing, to meeting new friends and learning about leadership! I cannot wait until next year! I love you all, agape! “ -Kohta Hansen. Immediate Past D21 Div. Executive My first time attending Assistant DCONwas the most wildest days I had in such a long time! DCON definitely changed me. It made me more out-going, loud, and talkative. I met so many new people and there was such a good vibe everywhere i went! The spirit battles was my favorite because you could cheer so loud and scream on top of your lungs and it would be normal! Overall this experience was so fun and memorable and I can't wait to go next year! -Aileen Pham, Lynnwood High School

When I got to DCON I looked and I found, all these key clubbers from all around I entered the fray and felt like a peel, until I heard "HEY KEY CLUBBERS HOW DO YOU FEEL?" I jumped and cheered and put up 21, I knew this weekend was going be fun The program started we all went insane, hey, they could tried to stop us but that'd be in vain With glow sticks lit and light sabers ablaze, opening ceremonies was a huge craze As the ceremony ended we all just wanted food, but caucusing was next, hey I was in the mood Day one ended and we rushed out the door, but everyone was thinking lets cheer more and more We closed our eyes and pretended to sleep, but before we new it the alarm clock went beep As sessions began and doors began to shut, I tried to get in but I got cut But it didn't matter cause I got to meet new friends, because even if you're locked out the fun never ends We headed back to get nice and snazzy, we didn't know it yet, but closing ceremonies was to be jazzy As awards handed out and pictures were taken, the crowd went crazy the floor started shakin Dancing through the night with friends and with strangers, don't worry people you aren't in dangers As morning came and key clubbers stirred, number were traded and cries would be heard DCON is over it's finished it's done, but don't worry next year we'll have even more fun
