Hello Yeti’s! When you are advertising your clubs event’s, it’s important to make sure all of

your resources are covered– posters up, event in the newspaper, your contact list texted,

there is a tweet about your event, the event becomes your Facebook status– in other words

have the word out there about your event. That’s extremely important, correct? Well it’s

the same when it comes to your club and Division 23’s Newsletter! Advertising your club,

showing off your club, telling D23 what your members think of Key Club, is extremely

important.

Do you keep secrets from your family? Okay, well some you do, but that is besides the

point. Most “secrets” you have, you share with your family. Key Club is one of your families.

Why keep secrets for your KC family– your Yeti family?

Communication is KEY- especially when you are a part of the largest geographical division

in the CNH District! Email me (lillampee@gmail.com), Text me (775-625-0568), your club

news, pictures, articles, quotes, ANYTHING send it to me! If your club has a newsletter,

email it to me! I would love to read it! Let’s share everything we’ve got with our yeti family.

On Sunday, September 11, Key Clubbers from North Valleys,

Reed, Reno, and Wooster attended a Division Council Meeting at

the Sparks Marina. At 1:00pm we opened with an Ice Breaker “2

truths and a lie." This was followed by a discussion of how to

keep members interested in Key Club, successful fundraising ide-

as, and finally Fall Rally. Fall Rally will be October 29th at Six

Flags Discovery Kingdom. Most of the details have been decided

and they are as follows: All Key Clubbers attending Fall Rally will

be at Earl Wooster High School at 5:30am. There, we will get on

a bus and the bus will be leaving the parking lot at 5:59am. On

the bus ride to Vallejo, CA, members may sleep, relax, "chill,"

and such. We will arrive at Six Flags around 9:30am. From there,

members will go into the auditorium where the rally is held and

Spirit Battles will rise, and District Board Members will be bought

with money raised for the Pediatric Trauma Program. Around

12:00pm, everyone will be set loose into the park. We will leave

around 9:30 or 10:00 and will arrive back in Reno from 12:00-

1:00am. If needed, the return time is subject to change. Other

news: it will be approximately $80 per member to attend. Please

contact your club President for more details! Division t-shirt de-

signed by Truman Chan and another spirit item will be included

with this price. We ended the DCM with a great game of volley-

ball! Thank you to all that attended. I hope I see more Yetis at

the next DCM!

I never wear makeup, because I like

looking natural. Some people may call me a hippy. I enjoy boot-cut jeans and

tie-dye shirts when I'm not sporting my San Francisco Giants or Wooster

Volleyball gear. I have long blonde hair and blue eyes and people would know

its me because I am always acting very theatrical. I have a very free-

spirited and care-free attitude!

It’s our LtG, Alyssa Yocom!

Most people will need to tilt their head slightly down to see me. I walk like I'm on a mission

and I'm usually wearing flip-flops and a Key Club shirt! Life is about being comfortable and

putting little effort into getting ready in the morning. I walk around with a smile on my

face and my green-hazel eyes glisten in the sunsets I watch almost every night.

You know it’s Mr. Mike...

If a random person saw me wandering, they would recognize me by my beard

(on and off but mostly on for 50 years) and glasses. I am usually wearing jeans

and a polo shirt and my hair (\what's left) and beard are almost totally white.

Is it Alli Lampshire?

People can easily tell I am me by my car- it is the only purple car in Winnemucca.

Typically I am in jeans, flip-flops or black converses', a shirt- usually colorful or semi

-formal for wearing around school. I al-ways straighten or curl my hair- very rare-

ly I will let the wind flow through my natu-ral curly hair. I have been told I have very

bright blue eyes. Oh and the easiest way a person can tell I am Alli Lampshire is by

my height; when your looking for me, look up for my head.

“GET READY FOR THE YETI”

Hello Division 23 Yetis!

Hopefully you are all enjoying this school year! Although this school year will be filled with an

abundance of hard work, this Key Club year is going to be filled with fun events, service op-portunities, club socials, and many, many memories!

Key Club is the perfect vacation from school’s everyday routine. Serving the community while bonding with friends gives off an absolutely MAGICAL feeling! So set aside some time in your

busy schedule to get out and serve others. Not only does it help: it feels good! Each club has many service projects that they will partake in. Also, the Division Leadership Team is planning a few service opportunities for all of the clubs to come together such as: River Clean Up, Phil-

anthropic Fundraising for the Pediatric Trauma Program, JDRF Walk for Life, Trick or Treat for UNICEF, Philanthropic Fundraising for The Eliminate Project, and more.

Attending Division Council Meetings (DCM) is another great way to meet Key Club members from all over Region 6! At DCMs we discuss upcoming service and fundraising opportunities as well as hold short workshops to help each club. Beyond that- DCMs are a great opportunity to

gather ideas from other clubs about things that may work for you home club.

Region 6’s Region Training Conference will be held at the University of Nevada, Reno on Octo-ber 23rd from 12:00-4:00. This conference will provide each member with the opportunity to

learn a lot about Key Club, themselves as leaders, as well as play games and meet others from our Region. Our California-Nevada-Hawaii District Governor Erinn Wong will be joining us as well. So mark your calendars for a great day!

I have highlighted some of the great events that we have going on for this year! As your Lieu-tenant Governor, I am here to serve YOU. So, if you have an idea, want to get more involved,

have any questions or comments: please contact me at any time!

Hi there D23! I challenge each of you to send me

an email (d23.cnhkc.ltg@gmail.com) telling me

why you joined Key Club! I can't wait to hear from

you all! Example: I joined Key Club because I

love to help others because of the feeling I get

from service

JDRF

Walk to Cure Diabetes will be held at the University

of Nevada, Reno on October 9th at 10:00am. This

service event raises money to cure Diabetes. Our

division will have a team. Following this event, a

DCM will be held at UNR. Please contact your club

Car Wash– by Danielle Kovaltchouk

Saturday September 17, Wooster and Reed

High Schools got together at Wooster and

held a Car Wash from 9-3 to raise money

to go to Fall Rally. We made $358 total and

we split the money evenly between the two

schools. I personally liked the car wash be-

cause it got everyone to work together and

let people make new friends with people

that didn't even go to their own school. It

was a great day and everyone had a blast. Washing Cars

Things have been very busy for Elko High's

Key Club lately. They volunteered at the

Buckaroo Breakfast over Labor Day weekend,

worked at concession stands for two football

games, and volunteered at the Morroders Car

Club Breakfast. Elko is very happy to finally

have boy members in the club; I've been told

by several Kiwanis members that this is a rare

occurrence. Over the next two weeks, they’ll

be working at the Fall Festival (making paper

pumpkins for children), and also volunteering

at the Balloon Festival Breakfast. September

is a busy month.

Just like Elko, Lowry is very happy to see

guys show up! Lowry was worrying they’d

have to call it quits if students showed up to

their first meeting on September 8, 2011.

They had a taco night, that night (raised

funds for Fall Rally) and they were surprised

new, potential members showed up! They are

getting ready for more fundraisers for Fall

Rally.

Reminder from D23’s

Leadership Team

With Key Club, school, family, and social

activities going on don’t forget to take a

breather. Take a moment to simply relax.

Try not to feel overwhelmed: have others

help you! Key Club is one large Ohana. As

best stated by Lilo, “'Ohana means family,

family means nobody gets left behind. Or

forgotten.” We are all here for you so use

our support!

Elko Indians!

Lowry Buckaroo’s!

Hello Key Clubbers! My name is Lindsey Newman and I am the Executive Assistant of the Key Club

District 23. As you may or may not know, one of our main focuses this year is to raise money for PTP

(Pediatric Trauma Prevention). The Kiwanis Organization has recognized that the number one killer

of children under the age of 14 is unintentional injury and that 90% of these deaths can be

prevented. PTP provides funding to local hospitals for training in the pediatric trauma wings. With

that being said, we need to get started on fundraising! The following list offers creative ideas for all

clubs in the division and there may need to be contact with bigger, local businesses. So, let’s get

started and have fun.

-Our own Cupcake Wars: Teams pay a fee to enter and the winners get cash or other cool prize.

-Bidding for mystery dish: Auction for home-made meals.

-Restaurant percentage: For a day (or longer) a restaurant

can give us 10% off of every meal they serve. Contact local restaurants for

permission.

-Eating contest: hot dogs or pies, contestants pay a fee and the winner gets a prize.

-Photography or art contest

-Baby Pageant contest: mothers love this. To do this, we would have to get a location and lots of

advertising.

-Mini Golfing PGA tour: You could use almost any mini golfing facility in town and have a tourna-

ment. Contact Wild Island, etc.

-Desert tasting: Get your club members to make yummy desserts and get people to pay a fee to

come in and have some tasty treats (bite sized?)

-White Elephant raffle. Have mystery items placed in boxes of various sizes and colors- raffle them

off. Half the fun is seeing what you end up with!
