Hey Texas and Oklahoma Key Clubbers, I hope all of you have enjoyed and will continue to enjoy your summer break! If your club has not been meeting this summer it would be a good idea for all of you to get together and plan the coming year. The district staff will be putting a back to school package up on the website very soon so keep an eye out for that because it will include resources and checklists for your club to be better prepared for school to start. Yours in Service, Colin Gonzalez Texas- Oklahoma District Treasurer Email: treasurer@tokeyclub.org
