Hello Division 28 Key Clubbers!
I hope all of you are having a wonderful start to Summer 2014! With the hot
weather, shinning sun, and willing to serve, the heart of a Key Clubber
continues to grow even when school is out.
As many of you guys may know, I attended International Convention from
June 30th to July 6th. I was able to meet Key Clubbers from all over the
United States, Canada, Jamaica, and more! I was also given to opportunity
to attend workshops and elect the new 2014-2015 International Board. I am
excited to share my experiences from ICON with each and every one of
you.
A very important event that will be coming up in the next month will be
Seattle Rally. Each officer is required to attend unless you have a legitimate
reason for not being able to attend. If you are unable to attend, please
message me as soon as possible so I can plan for a separate training
conference before school starts.
Once again, please continue to serve the community with the passion and
willingness each and everyone of you have even during the summer.
In Love and Service,
Jenna Liang
Lieutenant Governor of Division 28

INTERNATIONAL CONVENTION 2014
Hello Pacific Northwest District Key Clubbers! Over this past week, I along with 39 other PNW Key Clubbers and six Kiwanis chaperones had the opportunity to attend the 71st annual International Convention in the vibrant city of Anaheim, California. While there, we had the opportunity to attend educational workshops, meet
Key Clubbers from across the world, and elect the 2014-2015 Key Club International Board. I am truly humbled and honored to announce that I was chosen out of a field of four other highly qualified candidates to be your next International Vice President. My biggest support throughout the entire journey, from the moment I decided to run until my name was announced on stage, was the entire Pacific Northwest District. So let me take this time to thank
every single one of you- all 13,000+ members. It was your support that got me through not only ICON week but the months leading up to it. Thank you to everyone that messaged be “good luck” and to all of those that congratulated me afterwards. Even though many of you did not attend ICON 2014, I still felt as if all of you were alongside me. I look forward to personally thanking many of you as I travel to some of the upcoming area rallies. To all the graduating seniors, even though I will not have the opportunity to serve you for this upcoming year, I hope that many of you will decide to join Circle K in college and
eventually Kiwanis. Once again, THANK YOU to the mighty Pacific Northwest District! I look forward to yet another fantastic year of service, friendship, and growth not only for Key Club International but also for our district! In Service,
