Hello everyone!
Did you ocras have a fabulous
spring break? Hopefully it was
warm enough for most of your to
get your fins wet. This is the first
official newsletter from your new
Lieutenant Governor, Bradlee
Thielen! I hope all of you had a
wonderful time at DCON and all
of you who were unable to
attend, be sure to go next year!
It’s definitely an experience unlike
any other that you won’t want to
miss. Anyway I am getting ahead
of myself. Thank you guys for all
the great work you did in Emma’s
term as Lt.G! I may not have her
cookie recipe but I will try to be
the best Lt.G I can be without
them. And maybe I will convince
her to make you guys some,
depending on how hard you guys
work.
Feel free to contact me if you
have any questions, concerns, or
compliments. I am excited to get
to know all of you. It’s going to be
a great year for us I can feel it.

Our Division is called Division
42; it is broken up into two different
parts. We were formerly Division 42 WA
and our sister Division was Division 42
OR. But we changed some clubs
around so now both divisions have
some clubs in each state. The official
names are still yet to be decided but
we are leaning towards something like
42 East and West.
Here are some fun facts about our
Divisio
Meet your Division
Orca Points Orca Points is a reward system that
gives points to clubs for various things
(i.e. turned in reports on time, coming
to DCMs, doing service projects,
anything that involves the district or
division).
I will be keeping track of the Orca
points and will update you on where
each club is at with theirs in every
newsletter.
This will be the second year that this
system has been implemented, so
some clubs may be more familiar with
this than others.
Hello and welcome to the
new and larger Division 42 East. We
recently changed the names of
Division 42: Division 42 WA became
Division 42 East and Division 42 OR
became Division 42 West. This is
because we rearranged the clubs
that are in each Division. And 42 WA
had two clubs that were in Oregon so
it made sense to change the names.
- Past Lieutenant Governors of
Our Division:
- Bradlee Thielen 2014-2015
- Emma Temples 2013-2014
- Caleena Phillips 2013
- Alex Schmidt 2012-2013
- Frank Nelson 2011-2012
The club with the most Orca points will
have a Pizza/Cookie party! And yes, the
cookies will be Emma cookies.
FUN FACTS!
- We are the only division that has
two sections run by two
Lieutenant Governors
- Our mascot is the ORCA!
- Our Colors are Black and White
- Our Division consists of 6 schools:
R.A.Long, Three Rivers Christian,
Kelso, Toutle Lake, St. Helens, and
Columbia County Education
Campus

WHAT’S NEW?
New Executive Board From Left to Right; Lisa Antonio, District
Governor, Ik Hoon Jung, District Secretary,
Aneesh Pappu, District Treasurer, and Jenny
Zhang, District Editor
Goodbye Trang! Trang Tran was our District Governor during the
2013- 2014 term. And the Pacific Northwest Key
Club is honored to have her. She was an
amazing District Governor.
DID YOU LOVE DCON?
95% Of people thought DCON was incredible and
they cannot wait until next year so they can go
again! The other 5% are sad they are seniors
and can’t go to the next one.
DCON
The 65th Annual District
Convention was exactly like we
said it would be, insane. It was
chalk full of informational forums,
amazing speeches and bursting
with fun.
A few words from the people who
came:
“This was such a fun experience! I
am so glad I came. Not only was
it great because it was in Seattle
but also because Key Club is
great. DIVISION 42!” – Brian
Sanchez, Media Chair, R.A.Long
“My favorite part was definitely the
Governor’s Ball because I got to get
my twerk on! Also the sessions were fun
too, and oh yeah the spirit war!” – Elisa
Martinez, Secretary of Division 42 East,
Kelso
