Amanda’s Notes

1

January

Hey guys! Well it’s February, and

I’m not sure about you, but I am

way done with winter and cannot

wait for the sunshine to arrive!

Around this time, students start

transitioning from winter to spring

activities and I wish you the best

of luck on all your endeavors! If

you look at the cover photo for

this newsletter, I selected a hand

holding a heart. February is all

about love, and throughout this

month I really want you to think

about your service in new light.

Give of yourself this month and

remember that true service

comes straight from the heart!

Love you guys!

<3 Amanda R.

Add me on Facebook too!

I am totally there for you guys whenever you need me. So feel free to

email/call/text me whenever! My job as LTG is to be there for my clubs; so

don’t be shy!

DUES!

As I’m sure you all know, the

deadline for dues has

already passed! I am hoping

each of your clubs has done

what needed to be done,

but please contact me if you

have had any problems. Not

turning in dues by

December 1 would have

caused your club to be suspended.

D-CON March 21-24, 2013

Advisors have been emailed all

cost and registration info.

The registration deadline has

passed, but I look forward to

seeing all of you that are planning

on attending this year!

D-CON is a great opportunity to

meet new key clubbers and learn

more about what our district is

doing, so let’s get ready for

another great year!

Thank you to all the students and Kiwanians from

Canby, Country Christian, and Molalla that came

out to support the election of Division 68’s new

Lieutenant Governor! We had a great time hearing

our candidate’s hopes for next year, as well as

doing a service project for KCCP!

AND HERE’S YOUR NEW DIVISION 68 LTG!

Leo Gomez from Canby High School!

I have had the great honor of meeting Leo this year

through my term as LTG. He is a sophomore at Canby and

I know he will do a great job serving this year and next as

LTG. Get ready to meet him soon as he transitions to hold

his new position!

As of the District Board’s Fall Board Meeting, Division 68 has

gone through some changes, and I can now share them with

you all!

Due to ties with Kiwanians and other specific issues, we have

added and removed some clubs in Division 68. Below is a list

of the new Division 68. Get ready for a new exciting group of

clubs!

Please note that the Division changes will not be official until after this

year’s D-CON.

WHAT IF YOU COULD FUND

A CHILD’S EDUCATION?

Jamaica is known for its blue Caribbean beaches,

its rich blue mountain coffee, Bob Marley, the

fastest man in the world - Usain Bolt - and its food,

but people often fail to recognize the hardships and

troubles the people face in this paradise.

The 2012-2013 PNW District Project is Project

Educate – our goal is to raise $30000 to send to

three schools in Jamaica to provide library

equipment, student assistance, and classroom

materials to improve the quality of education.

This project can be supported by raising awareness, fundraising money, and

purchasing a t-shirt and wristband from Pacific Northwest Lieutenant

Governors. As motivation, there will be club competitions in the form of DCON

awards; there will be awards for the platinum, gold, silver, and bronze levels.
