Hey Division 28,

It’s September! Although the summer is coming to an end and the sun is disappearing, the Key Club year is finally starting up! Clubs will become more active, DCMs are becoming more important, and DCON is coming ever closer. I hope you’re all ready for another fruitful year of service, and I can’t wait to see what’s in store for our division during the rest of the year!

Club officers, now that the year is starting, there’s a lot of work to be done. With the dues, membership growth, and eventual DCON registration, your jobs may not be easy. Remember, if it ever seems like more than you canhandle or there’s somethingthat confuses you, I amalways here to help!

In Love and Service,Adam NewtonLieutenant Governor of Division 28

“Youth Opportunity Fund? What’s that?”

The Youth Opportunity Fund, or YOF, is a grant

run by Key Club International

If a club wants to start a service project but

lacks the funds to do it, the YOF will grant them

$100 to $2000 to achieve their goal.

The YOF is funded by your annual dues, so

take advantage of it!

Greetings, Key Club members!

Just a few weeks ago, our organization convened in Indianapolis for

our annual International Convention alongside Circle K and Kiwanis

International as we celebrated Kiwanis’ centennial birthday. It was an

unforgettable experience for all, and that week, I was fortunate enough to

be elected President of Key Club International.

As International President, my job is to lead our organization for the

next year; to set the vision of what Key Club is, should be, and will be; to

supervise and work with your 11 International Trustees, ensuring that

they serve and work with your district properly; to unite all 33 districts

under our common mission, and to do everything in my power to leave

this organization better than I found it when I leave office in 2016.

Key Club has an exciting year ahead of it! We’re entering the last

decade of our first 100 years. We’re working everyday to make

membership larger, stronger, and an experience that leaves all 270,000

satisfied.

As a Key Club member, you’ve chosen to be a part of something

greater than yourself. Greater than your home club, your division, or

even your district; you’ve chosen to be one of the thousands of hands

Key Club International unites for the greater good around the word. As

the saying goes, “United we stand; Divided we fall”: Let’s unite, Key

Club. We’re a global network of smart, inspired, capable servant leaders.

Can you imagine what we can do when we come together?

It’s an honor to be your leader this year. I wish you the very best in

all of your endeavors this school year Key Club and otherwise and thank

you sincerely for being a Key Clubber. Let’s have a fantastic year!

Best regards,

Rip Livingston

President, Key Club International

Hello Key Clubbers!

My name is Addison Clipfell and I’m the 2015-2016 International

Vice President. I’m so excited to serve alongside Rip and all of the

trustees for the upcoming year. My role as Vice President is often one of

ambiguity but I hope to change that this year. This year I will be working

on many things including: chairing the Committee for Service and YOF,

being a liaison to the Western Canada district, writing a monthly blog,

reading governor monthly reports, serving on the executive committee,

and much more. If you have any questions about my role this year,

please feel free to ask!

Some fun facts about me are that I play the violin, I work at Old

Navy, I love Sudoku, I have a dog named Roxy, and I absolutely love

Key Club. Well, you knew that last one right? I truly hope I can inspire

and aid all of you in sparking an enthusiasm for Key Club in your

members. This is extremely important to create long lasting connections

and it is key to keeping members in the k-family. Also, I hope all of your

unique clubs continue to do amazing service in the upcoming year and

share that with me along the way!

Most importantly I want you to know that while I hold the office of

I.V.P, I’m still a regular teenager. I think history is boring, stress about

college applications, fan-girl over Fall Out Boy, have a job, and love to

serve. I’m just like all of you! I want to be a supporter, a source of

encouragement, and a Vice President all wrapped into one. So, with that

once again feel free to contact me anytime. My contact info is below. I

can’t wait to have an amazing year of service!
