International Convention

Your International President, Maria Palazzolo!

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,

Kevin Zhang

Key Club International Vice President

the Key Club International board may decertify the district by two-thirds majority vote. In such

case, the International director shall provide written notice to the governor and secretary of the

sponsoring Kiwanis district and the governor and administrator of the Key Club district at least

120 days prior to any meeting at which the district’s decertification shall be considered.

Article VIII. Club Members Section 6. Any person, not in high school or an educational equivalent, who has performed

some distinguished public service may be elected an honorary member of a club for a period of

extracurricular activities and of good character. No potential member will be denied the chance of

membership in Key Club due to previous service experience or lack thereof.

Raise funds for the Eliminate

Project

12:00pm-4:00pm

Walk to Eliminate will take place

Saturday, July 19th from 12:00 pm to 4:00 pm at

the Omak High School Track. We will be raising

funds for our District Project, the Eliminate

Project. You might be thinking, how does this

“Walk to Eliminate” work? Here is a link to the

pledge sheets that need to be filled out:

You will be raising money depending on

how many pledges you can get. Donors can

either give you a flat fee or donate based on

how many laps you walk. For example, if

someone wrote .05 cents for per lap, and I

walked ten laps, I would go to them after Walk

to Eliminate, and they would donate .50 cents

towards the Eliminate Project. I highly

encourage getting friends or family members

involved. Feel free to print out pledge sheets

for them too. Also, don’t hesitate to contact

me.

Omak

Key Club

Kelsie

Coffell

Omak has been an

outstanding club in

Division 9. Just this

past month they

participated in three

service projects. That

might not seem

impressive, but the

total number of

service hours Omak

Key Club

accumulated was

316.

As the newly elected Vice-

President, she has been hard

at work. Not just performing

her duties as vice-president,

but going above and

beyond. She chaired the first

ever ice fundraiser for Omak

Key Club, and helped raised

roughly $213. She was the

only Key Clubber to attend all

three days. Kelsie has

attended every service

project Omak has held as

well. Her leadership skills have

shone to everyone,

specifically incoming

freshmen because she has

recruited some freshmen

already! The future looks

bright for Omak Key Club.
