PAGE 2 of April Newsletter What is a Lieutenant Governor?

Essentially, I am the liaison between the Rocky Mountain District Board and each of Division 3’s Key Clubs and Key Clubbers. I am responsible for publishing monthly newsletters that will update you on Division and District wide events as well as providing KEY information on how to better manage your local Key Club.

Moreover, I will hold club officer training in Fall Rally and support board members throughout the year, hold divisional meetings, and connect the division’s clubs to our parent organization; Kiwanis International. This said, I would like to send a huge shout-out to each of the clubs in our division.

Wait! How are you going to be able to maintain relations with Division 3 from Pueblo?

I admit that this part is going to have a ROCKY start, but I intend on receiving contact info from the schools Key Clubs, and organizing sessions that I can call/ text to get updates on Key Clubs in Division 3.

What schools are apart of Division 3?

-Denver East H.S. -Denver North H.S. -Heritage H.S. -John F. Kennedy H.S. -Pinnacle Charter H.S. -Littleton H.S.

KEY CLUB PLEDGE Don’t know the Key Club pledge? No worries.

Just follow along below: I pledge, on my honor, to uphold the objects of Key Club International; to build my home, school and community; to serve my nation and God; and to combat all forces which tend to undermine these institutions.

KEY CLUB MISSION Key Club is an international student-led organization which provides its members with opportunities to provide service, build character and develop leadership.

So what happened at the 2017 District Convention?

What’s ICON?

This year the Rocky Mountain District welcomed hundreds of Key Clubbers from Colorado, Wyoming, Nebraska, and New Mexico to the Shine Bright with Service District Convention of the year! This year’s District Convention featured a district wide service project, a keynote speech from The Thirst Project, a high-energy Dance, a talent and awards show, and most importantly elected and initiated the new 2017-2018 district board.

It’s the biggest event of the Key Club year! Imagine celebrating the amazing things Key Club does with more than 1,600 Key Clubbers from all across the United States, Canada and the Caribbean.

Ultimately, at the 2017 Shine Bright with Service Convention, the Rocky Mountain District soared above and beyond with leadership to strengthen the district, envision a successful future, and build a positive and thriving home, school, and community. Thank you to all the Key Clubs that attended the district convention and contributed to an incredible weekend
