Transcript of April 2011 Key Notes
From Friday, March 25th to Sunday, March 27, eighteen Key
Clubbers from Mount Si went and joined the fun at the annual
Pacific Northwest District Convention. DCON has a few main
purposes- to bring Key Clubbers from different schools, cities, and
states together to share service ideas, to elect a new district board
(the officers for the whole Pacific Northwest region, from Northern
California to British Columbia and Alaska), and to build up spirit
and enthusiasm for what Key Club is all about- service. You haven’t
experienced true Key Club spirit until you’ve cheered “We feel
good!” along with more than 1500 teenagers from five states and
one province. Read on for more convention highlights…

Meet your new Lieutenant Governor
The new Lieutenant Governor for Division 28 is
Kaileen Dougherty, a junior at Issaquah High School. She is on the IHS Cross Country and
Track teams. She’s also very involved in her
community. This past year she served as president
of the IHS Key Club. She went to Key Club’s
International Convention last summer. All of us
who met her at DCON were struck by her
enthusiasm and friendliness. Her goals this year
include visiting all of the clubs in her division
more than once and organizing some inter-club
events, so we can look forward to meeting Key
Clubbers from other schools. She also hopes to
double the number of DCON attendees from
Division 28, and to recognize members and
projects that really stand out.
Best Website
Award Thanks to all the hard
work of Jenny Green, our
club won the award for
Best Website! We were the
only club from Division 28
(Bellevue, Interlake,
Issaquah, Liberty, Mount
Si, Mercer Island,
Newport, Sammamish, and
Skyline) to win an award.
New District Board After hearing the candidates’ speeches and asking
them questions, two delegates from each club voted
on this year’s District Board. Our delegates, Heidi
and Lynell, did a great job and the board looks very
promising.
District Governor: Varun Awasthi
Secretary: Emerson Kim
Treasurer: Ariel Orasud
Bulletin Editor: Mary Alice Peng (from Division 28!)
Delegates also voted to endorse candidates for
international positions, meaning we support them to
run at ICON in June.

Lewandowski

Double it up! (Uh, uh!)
Triple it up! (Uh, uh, uh!)
One long uh! (Uuuuh!)

If you go to DCON or Seattle Rally, be
prepared to yell this at the top of your lungs.
The division with the most spirit wins the
Spirit Stick (And better seats at next year’s
DCON), so learn the cheer and yell it loud!

UPCOMING EVENTS
We want to hear
from YOU!
Got a cause you want to support, a fundraiser you want to have, or
an idea on how to spice up our Key Club meetings and draw in more
members? Let us know!
Key Club is about high school students wanting to serve their
community, so we need to know who you want to serve and how.
Without input from club members, our Key Club has no way of
making a difference in the world. Even if you want to point out a
problem that you don’t have a solution for, just contact one of your
officers and we’ll do our best to solve it. We want our Key Club to be
the best that it can be.
Thanks!
