My Monthly Message

My term is sadly coming to an end soon and I am looking for someone to take over the legacy of Division 5.

If you want to go further in Key Club and be Lt. Governor please talk to me as soon as possible so that

I may help set you for success before the day of election in less than a month.

Also, DCON is almost here and you need to start making plans for that. This year’s DCON will be one to remember. I have a few Divisional fundraisers coming up for a mode

of transportation for our whole Division to travel together. Officer elections should be taking place next month as well. So that I can leave everyone’s contact information set for

the next Lt. Governor. I am so proud of all the service you all have been done so

far! Let’s make these last few months count!

Yours in Service, Dianna Cardenas

If you have not yet submitted them, they are now late. Dues

need to be submitted by February 1st, before your club

is considered a suspended club.

Unfortunately, if your club has

not paid dues you cannot

register for DCON or apply

for any district positions until

they’re paid. I do not want this

to be the case so I will work

with you to fix this.

Congratulations to all the

clubs that have paid!
