Meet the Incoming LtG Hi all!
I am Mariah Gronbach, and I will be your Lieutenant Governor for the 2015-2016 year. I would like to give a special thank you to Rochelle Banta, our previous LtG. She did an amazing job, and I hope do the same by further strengthening our division! I plan to increase the interaction and communication among our clubs to make this the best year possible for Key Club! I am determined to bring together the clubs of Division 82 so that we can increase membership and the number of people in attendance for events. With the increased attendance, we will do stronger and more powerful activities in the community.
A little bit of Q&A:
Q: What are your hobbies? Q: What are your qualifications?
A: I am very determined, organized, sufficient, and I will do the best that I can when doing my assigned job. I am currently a member of North Valleys Honor Society. I am also the Secretary of the Key Club at North Valley and am very experienced with time management. I will do everything in my power to strengthen Key Club (the best club to be in)! ď Š
A: Outside of Key Club, I participate in volleyball, bowling, and track and field. I love spending time with my friends over the weekends. I also am an avid reader and tend to stay up much too late reading.
Q:What is your best Key Club memory?
A: My favorite moment happened right when I got off the plane going to attend the Winter Board meeting. There were many other Lieutenant Governors and we all greeted each other like we were long time friends, even though we have never met before. I realized at that moment that there were many other people who shared my views and goals when it comes to helping the community with Key Club.
