A Farewell from Your LTG“I cannot believe the purpose of life is

(merely) to be happy. I think the purpose

of life is to be useful, to be honorable, to

be compassionate. I think it is, above all,

to matter, to count, to stand for some-

thing. To have it make some difference

that you lived at all.”

- Leo Rosten

Hi Division 20,

I’d like to think that I’m not the sentimental type. However, I cannot help but feel a little sad at the thought of leaving you all. I guess there isn’t much left for me to say but thank you. Thank you to all the officers for your consistent hard work and dedication towards service. From diligently fundraising for The ELIMINATE Project to participating in multiple projects around the community, your love of service is both apparent and appreciated. You’re all wonderful, and I wish you all the very best of luck in your future endeavors. Thank you to the advisors for providing the officers guidance and ex-pertise. While Key Club is a student-led organization, their projects and efforts definitely would not have been as successful without your continual help and support.

And lastly, thank you to the District Board for welcoming me into another family.

This past year has been wonderful, and I will truly miss you all.

Yours in Caring and Service,Audrey Lee

DIVISION 20: Dover | Morris Catholic | Morris Hills | Morris Knolls | Morris Votech | Randolph | Roxbury

My name is Rocky Trifari and I am currently a junior in the Networking, Information Technology, and Communications Academy at the Morris County School of Technology in Denville. I am both honored and excited to be the Lieutenant Governor of Division 20 for the 2012-2013 service year.

Hello Division 20,

Meet Rocky Trifari, LTG-Elect

March 2012

In addition to Key Club, I am an active member in numerous other clubs and organizations including the Students for Environmental Awareness, Student Government, and Photography Club. During my free time, I enjoy listening to music, reading, drawing, going on the computer, and being with my family and friends. A few random things that most people don’t know about me are that I can speak a little Chinese, I think birds are really interesting, and I have travelled to several countries throughout my life.

I have been an active member in numerous branches of the Kiwanis-Family for many years. I was a member in K-Kids, the Vice President of Builders Club at one point, and I have been a member in Key Club since my freshman year. I started off as a general member and then held the position as the Secretary and Webmaster both during my sophomore year and junior year. I am thrilled to be able to serve as the Lieutenant Governor during my senior year.

I look forward to meeting all of you!

Yours in Caring and Service, Rocky Trifari

Lieutenant Governor Elect of Division 20
