The point of a Fall Rally is to give officers training and to interconnect the division. There will also be presentations, snacks, and icebreakers! It’ll be a great opportunity to meet other Key Clubbers from Divisions 9 and 14, while also getting all of your questions answered about your positions and Key Club as a whole! Please make sure to RSVP with how many of your club members will be attending by emailing rockymountainltg14@gmail.com. I look forward to seeing you all there!
DIVISIONAL COUNCIL MEETING Our first Divisional Council Meeting will be on September 14th, from 4:306pm. It is important that ALL CLUB PRESIDENTS attend. All officers and members are welcome. This event will be an ice cream social. Divisional Council Meetings are great for getting to know other Key Clubbers in our Division! We will discuss how our clubs have been doing so far, what has gone well and not so well, and the possibility of putting together a division-wide service project. There will be a speaker from the Blue Spruce Kiwanis and, of course, ice cream! Please take note of how many members from your clubs will be attending and RSVP by emailing me at rockymountainltg14@gmail.com.

ELIMINATE T-SHIRTS No, we are not going to destroy all of the world’s t-shirts. We are pushing a huge fundraiser to finalize our efforts to end Maternal/Neonatal Tetanus with the Eliminate Project!
The shirts will be $16 and can be ordered online directly through Custom Ink. I will send out a link in an email once the campaign begins. We will only be able to sell shirts for a month after the campaign starts, so make sure to start promoting them now!
