18: Division 44 Car Wash to Eliminate- Get a head start on your hours! 25: August Joint 44/45 DCM
Division 44, My initial goal of uniting the division through service is well on the way to success, and I cannot express how proud I am of the schools that have already started working together. Also, having seen the success of the Nepal Fundraiser, and all of your efforts to raise a massive amount of money in one short week, I now have another goal. I want our Division to raise $1000 for The Eliminate Project? Think that’s outrageous? Guess what? We’ve already raised over $470! We can do it. In caring and service, Stuart Sardo

Hey Beastly Butterflies! July was a fun month with rallies and car washes every other week, and I hope you were able to make it to at least one of those events. Whether we like it or not, the school year is approaching, and that means Key Club is going to be kicking into high gear once again, so start getting yourself and your friends ready for an awesome year of service. But don’t stress about school just yet, summer break is only halfway over! So keep an eye and ear open for upcoming events like the division car wash and Kiwanis Garage Sale! As always, if you have any ideas/questions/concerns feel free to contact me (info at end of newsletter).

Yep, They’re Back!
P.A.R. A wise man once said “all good things must come to an end”. Sadly, our division lost the spirit stick to Division 62, but I am beyond pleased to say how happy I was with the respect and spirit that 44 demonstrated at rally this year, and I can’t wait to see all of you (and more) at DCON where we can really show what we’re made of.

Meet Your New
Rip LivingstonInternational President
Greetings, Key Club members! Just a few weeks ago, our organization convened in Indianapolis for our annual International Convention alongside Circle K and Kiwanis International as we celebrated Kiwanis’ centennial birthday. It was an unforgettable experience for all, and that week, I was fortunate enough to be elected President of Key Club International. As International President, my job is to lead our organization for the next year; to set the vision of what Key Club is, should be, and will be; to supervise and work with your 11 International Trustees, ensuring that they serve and work with your district properly; to unite all 33 districts under our common mission, and to do everything in my power to leave this organization better than I found it when I leave office in 2016. Key Club has an exciting year ahead of it! We’re entering the last decade of our first 100 years. We’re working everyday to make membership larger, stronger, and an experience that leaves all 270,000 satisfied. As a Key Club member, you’ve chosen to be a part of something greater than yourself. Greater than your home club, your division, or even your district; you’ve chosen to be one of the thousands of hands Key Club International unites for the greater good around the word. As the saying goes, “United we stand; Divided we fall”: Let’s unite, Key Club. We’re a global network of smart, inspired, capable servant leaders. Can you imagine what we can do when we come together? It’s an honor to be your leader this year. I wish you the very best in all of your endeavors this school year Key Club and otherwise and thank you sincerely for being a Key Clubber. Let’s have a fantastic year! Best regards, Rip Livingston President, Key Club International rlivingston@alabamakeyclub.org
International Board Hello Key Clubbers! My name is Addison Clipfell and I’m the 2015-2016 International Vice President. I’m so excited to serve alongside Rip and all of the trustees for the upcoming year. My role as Vice President is often one of ambiguity but I hope to change that this year. This year I will be working on many things including: chairing the Committee for Service and YOF, being a liaison to the Western Canada district, writing a monthly blog, reading governor monthly reports, serving on the executive committee, and much more. If you have any questions about my role this year, please feel free to ask! Some fun facts about me are that I play the violin, I work at Old Navy, I love Sudoku, I have a dog named Roxy, and I absolutely love Key Club. Well, you knew that last one right? I truly hope I can inspire and aid all of you in sparking an enthusiasm for Key Club in your members. This is extremely important to create long lasting connections and it is key to keeping members in the k-family. Also, I hope all of your unique clubs continue to do amazing service in the upcoming year and share that with me along the way! Most importantly I want you to know that while I hold the office of I.V.P, I’m still a regular teenager. I think history is boring, stress about college applications, fan-girl over Fall Out Boy, have a job, and love to serve. I’m just like all of you! I want to be a supporter, a source of encouragement, and a Vice President all wrapped into one. So, with that once again feel free to contact me anytime. My contact info is below. I can’t wait to have an amazing year of service! Addison Clipfell 2015-2016 International Vice President Email: addie.clipfell@gmail.com FB: facebook.com/aclipfell
