GREETINGS FROM YOUR LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR HEY DINOSAURS! Now that summer is over and the school year is starting up again, I hope you are all looking forward to another fantastic year of Key Club and service!

Although we are all busy with schoolwork and other extracurricular activities, I hope that you guys will continue to SERVE and make a positive impact on your communities.

I strongly encourage you guys to think about recruiting new members into Key Club! Think about why you love Key Club, and share your experience with others. I have provided a couple promotion resources in the first few pages of the newsletter. Target the underclassmen and build your clubs!

Share your love for service and others will follow.

Don’t forget about Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF coming up during the month of October! Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF is the best way to fundraise and raise awareness for The Eliminate Project. You can read more about it on pages 16 and 17.

As always, don’t hesitate to approach me with any questions or concerns! Hope to see you on the 27th for the September online DCM! In love and service, Dorothy Wang Lieutenant Governor of Division 64 Key Club International

“I love Key Club because it’s a life changing organization that has pushed me to my limits, but has also allowed me to grow and develop as a person. Key Club has allowed me to create many friendships, and memories from service events I’ll never forget, while at the same time has shown me what it means to truly give back to the community. Most importantly, I love Key Club because it has changed my life for the better and has made me even more grateful for the things I have today. Key Club is life.”

--Emilee Huey, Div. 66

“It’s hard to explain why I l there’s just so much about potential it unlocks in each that we serve our commu serving the world. I love t made and the community Key Club l --Christina Tan

“I love Key Club because it lets me help our community – and have fun while doing it!”

--Jack Bolen, Div. 64 “I love Key Club because it gives me an opportunity to make a small difference in the world by serving others. Key Club has also allowed me to explore my passions, build lasting friendships, and gain a confidence through service and leadership that I would not have found otherwise.

Being in Key Club throughout high school has shown me the incredible possibilities that result from collective action. It has helped me realize that a single high schooler such as myself – a mere individual among over 7 billion others in the world – is capable of creating change in the world, through small contributions that culminate into an impact far beyond the scope of my own capacity. As an individual, my influence on the world is limited. But together?

The possibilities are endless.”

- Dorothy Wang, Lieutenant Governor of Division 64

Preferred Charities UNICEF works with the United Nations to help over 150 developing countries to overcome the obstacles that poverty, violence, disease and discrimination place in a child’s path. Through community service, UNICEF is able to provide healthcare, sanitary water, and education for these children.

1 in 9 babies in America are born mature.

The United States has one of the highest rates for premature babies for more developed countries. The March of Dimes funds lifesaving research and programs and works to end premature birth, birth defects and infant mortality. Every baby deserves a healthy life.

Children’s Miracle Network seeks to battle every type of childhood illness and injury. The money fundraised for the program goes towards research and training, purchasing equipment and paying uncompensated care, in its mission to save as many children’s lives as possible.

About the Pacific Northwest District 64! That’s us!

“In the midst of serene nature and fluctuating weather conditions lies the great Pacific Northwest District (PNW).

The Pacific Northwest is geographically the largest district of Key Club International. The district spans from Western Canada to Northern California: with Alaska, Washington, Oregon, and the pan-handle of Idaho in between.”

“The Pacific Northwest encompasses nearly 1.8 million square miles and includes over 330 clubs that operate under 44 divisions. Through rain or shine, snow or hail, Key Clubbers in the Pacific Northwest dedicate countless hours to their communities and internationally, and are always Proud 'N‘ Willing to serve!”

“The mascot of the Pacific Northwest District is the “Mighty Moose,” also commonly called “Mortimer the Moose.” Known for our spirit yet incredible dedication to the service that we do, the PNW District continues to be a leader in the Key Club world, and it is all thanks to our members and excellent leadership throughout the district. It would not be far from the truth to say that yes, we’re one of the best, with over 13,000 members proudly shouting out in accord when they hear: “Hey PNW! How do you feel?””

Division 64 includes Tigard High School, Wilsonville High School, Tualatin High School, Lakeridge High School, Sherwood High School, West Linn High School, and Lake Oswego High School. We are one of the smallest and newest divisions in the District, but we are working towards becoming a bigger and stronger division over the next year!

Our divisional mascot has been recently changed to the “DINOSAURS,” while our divisional colors are blue and silver. We are happy to serve and blessed to be able to experience how rewarding being an active member of Key Club can be. Yay Key Club!!
