Hello from your Lieutenant Governor!

Hey Krakens!

I hope you had a great spring break and enjoyed some time off. As testing and finals are among us, I wish everybody good luck on any upcoming exams. It is definitely a stressful time, but just remember to study hard and keep pushing through! You guys got this!

Thank you to everyone who came out to the Divisional Awards Banquet DCM in the beginning of May! It was really great to see Key Clubbers being awarded for all their hard work over the past year. If you were not able to attend, no worries, on May 28th you have the opportunity to be part of the Seattle Joint DCM! I will be posting more information and updates about the event on the divisional Facebook so keep an eye out! As always don’t be hesitant to message me with any questions or help regarding Key Club! I hope to see you all soon!

In Love and Service, Rheanna Borromeo Division 33 Lieutenant Governor Pacific Northwest District Key Club International

APRIL

JOINT DCM RECAP

On April 4th

whales, krakens, sharks, tigers and stars all came together for the second annual April Joint DCM. New friendships and bonds were formed through various ice breakers and food.

At the end, host Lieutenant Governors were punished with silly string and water balloons after raising enough money for the miracle minute. Thank you to everyone who went!

Hello from our SISTER DIVISION! Hello hello Krakens of D33!

My name is Ashley Villanueva and I am the Lieutenant Governor of Division 32. As Rheanna stated, Division 32 and 33 are Sister Divisions.

Long ago (before 2001), Division 32 and Division 33 were one division, except at the time, we were not as big as we are now. Because of this, we split up into Division 32 which includes the Kent/Renton/Tahoma region and Division 32 which encompasses the Federal Way/Auburn region. As Sister Divisions, we aim to have a close bond with each other in terms of DCON and rallies. Not only that, but we also plan to have Joint DCMs and socials together to strengthen the relationship between each division. I look forward to meeting many of you soon and I know this year will be a great one for us sister divisions! I absolutely love the kraken spirit and we can all be kra-gons or dra-kens (krakens + dragons) together!

Let’s be the best sister divisions there are in the PNW District! Oh yah, one more thing: ¡Hola! ¿Qué pasa? ¡Krakens en la casa! I love that cheer so much. Stay toasty, krakens! J In Caring and Service,

Ashley Villanueva

Lieutenant Governor of Division 32

SISTER DIVISION?

Before 2001, Division 32 use to included the Key Clubs in Federal Way, Auburn and Des Moines. Once membership and club count grew too large, the division split into what is now Division 32 and Division 33. As sister divisions we maintain ties and keep close relationships with one another by having joint events and socials.

Preferred Charities UNICEF UNICEF was created with a distinct purpose in mind: to work with others to overcome the obstacles that poverty, violence, disease and discrimination place in a child’s path. For over 20 years, Key Club has been a part of Trickor-Treat for Unicef. Every Halloween, Key Clubbers collect money in the signature orange boxes, raising money to support the well-known charity.

CHILDREN’S MIRACLE NETWORK Children's Miracle Network Hospitals (CMNH) was established nationally in 1983 to help children by actively supporting improved health care for millions of young people around the world. CMNH's mission is to generate funds and awareness programs for the benefit of children served by its associated hospitals, now numbering more than 170 nationwide

MARCH OF DIMES The mission of the March of Dimes is to improve the health of babies by preventing birth defects, premature birth and infant mortality. Key Club takes part in raising awareness by participating in their annual event March For Babies. The rising incidence of premature birth has demanded action, and the March of Dimes has responded by initiating an intensive, multi-year campaign to raise awareness and find the causes of prematurity.
