Ahhh, February. Do you smell that in the air?

Yes, it's the season of ELECTIONS. Most

clubs should be finishing up their club elec-

tions, and newly elected members have begun

to transition into their positions. This is the

time for officers to continue their tasks and

responsibilities, while also training their new officers. Remember, a Key Club year spans

from April of one year to the April of the next

year!

At the mention of club elections, most are

anticipating the Division elections! Yes, that's

right! Conclave is almost here! I'm reminded

of the days before I ran. The feelings of nerv-

ousness and excitement. These feelings built

up inside of me, with thoughts of the future,

and look where I am today!

With the election season upon us, and the

change in club leadership, do not let this deter you in taking that extra step forward to lead

and serve your communities! Continue to re-

cruit new members into your clubs and intro-

duce them to the wonderful family of volun-

teers. I heard at a recent Kiwanis event a state-

ment that I feel can also apply to us Key Club-

bers. I have modified it for this purpose.

"People don't join Key Clubbers; they join

Key Clubbers" This statement is truly

beautiful and it's true. Think back to how you

joined Key Club. Now think about why you

stayed! :] Happy serving!

- Your LTG, Justine Hsu!

Hello Jellies!

It’s about time I put out a newsletter, huh? I apolo-

gize for coming short handed during December

and last month. BUT HERE’S FEBRUARY! :) An-

ywho I still can’t believe that I only have four

months of Key Club left. Thinking back, I remem-

ber when I first joined Key Club, I had no idea that

it would have impacted my life as much as it did.

Key Club has greatly changed the way I look at

world around me. Before, I was just another person

living their life on this planet. But now, I’m a per-

son who is making a difference in the world

around me. Key Club has taught me how much of an impact people can make on bettering their com-

munity. How giving my time and service would not

only better others around me but also myself. It has

taught me how to be a better leader and a more

responsible individual. (Even though I missed two

issues of newsletters. T_T) It has also taught me

how procrastinating isn’t...so great. After making

six newsletters however, I... still haven’t learned. I

plan to spend the last four months I have in Key

Club with full of spirit and inspiring members of

my own club to be more involved. Key Club has

been a great experience for me and I hope that

YOU have also experienced the full potential of Key Club.

I would greatly appreciate

it if YOU ( Jellies) would write me

either a RECAP or a BLURB and

submit it on our submission page.

I made that page so it would be

easier for YOU to send in articles.

Well, that’s about it!

HAVE AN AMAZING

TIME FUNDRAISING FOR DCON!!

Kiwanis One Day is April 21, 2012. Every Key Club should save Saturday, April 21, 2012, for the annual Kiwanis service

initiative observed worldwide – Kiwanis One Day.

On Kiwanis One Day, every club is urged to join with the rest of the Kiwanis family--

K-Kids, Builders, Circle K, Aktion Club, and Kiwanis--for a day of united service.

Called Kiwanis One Day, the event is inspired by Past International President Nel-

son Tucker’s initiative to create a day that unites the entire Kiwanis family in ser-

vice.

Kiwanis One Day provides an opportunity to showcase the Kiwanis family and our

commitment to service in each community. Think of the impact of more than

600,000 Kiwanis family members can make in one day of united service.

Every club is invited to take part in this momentous event.

For the most up-to-date information and more resources, visit the official Kiwanis

One Day page.

the members. Whoever wins holds the title and the responsibilities of the position after District Convention. In the

time between the elections and District Convention, the winning candidate of each position must be trained by

the person currently holding the position.

Helpful Tips

Do you have any ideas for DCON? Buttons, clothing, flags, cheers? Let us

know! E-mail any ideas to Justine at [email protected] !

Buttons and Ideas for DCON!

Did you miss your chance of buying one of our awesome division shirts you

see in the background? WELL NO WORRIES! There’s ONE chance left of be-

ing able to purchase one. We will be having ONE last order of shirts before

DCON so you’ll be able to show them off to the other divisions!

You’ll be able to purchase them at our next DCM which is during CON-

CLAVE on Saturday, Feb. 25th!

Division T-Shirts!

Yes, the year may be ending in 4 months, FOR SCHOOL. However, that

doesn’t mean you should stop RECRUITING members! Key Club doesn’t

end with the school year, actually, it doesn’t end AT ALL. So keep on re-

cruiting at your school! Think of some great ideas of getting students inter-

ested, like having all of your members bring a spoon and walk around with

it! IT’S SO AWKWARDLY AMAZING because people would ask you, “WHY

THE HECK ARE YOU HOLDING A SPOOON?!”

RECRUIT Members!

came together to share common experiences, unique personal stories, lots of laughs, nights of dancing, on-

bring out individual club’s achievements.
