DIVISION GOALS
DCON District Convention:
We’re Mad for Service
This year’s 2011 District Convention was held in Dallas, TX. District Convention is where
clubs from all over Texas and Oklahoma gather to learn more about Key Club, visit forums
for training, compete in contests, such as the talent show, Just Dance 2, Oratory, and Im-
promptu Essay, and much
more. District Convention
takes place over 4 days. Key
Clubs who attend DCON can
participate in the Service Fair.
This year, Key Clubbers pack-
aged food for Kids Against
Hunger for hungry families in
Honduras. We packaged 19,716
meals!!!!! Great job!
Forums are opportunities for Key Club-
bers to further develop their leadership
skills.
Forums range from
tips on specific
officer positions, to
developing public
speaking skills, and
even can address
stress relief tips! The
forum activity
shown below, was in
the public speaking
and leadership ses-
sion. Key Clubbers
were asked to cre-
ate a poster that represented the qualities of a leader. They were then asked to pre-
sent their work to the entire forum.
Please consider going to DCON 2012. It is a blast! If you need help fundraising let me
know! I have some great ideas that I cannot wait to share with you!
Div. 3S Project
HOPE FOR THE HUNGRY
DIVISIONAL PROJECT
1 in 4 American children go to bed hungry. 925
million people are affected by hunger
worldwide. About
$144 can feed a
family for a year.
As Key Clubbers, we
can join together to
fight hunger in our
local area and
overseas. This
divisional project
focuses on, but is
not limited to,
children affected by
hunger .
I ask that each club participates in the
divisional project this year.
Hope For the Hungry is an excellent
opportunity for Key Clubs to make an
impact on the current and future lives of
individuals.
Hunger can hinder a child’s potential by
limiting their attention span, therefore
restricting their learning capabilities and
furthermore their futures as educated
members of society.
We can make a difference, whether in
the life of a child, of a family, or an in-
dividual.
Project Ideas:
Canned food drives
Walks against hunger
Volunteering at soup kitchens
Food Banks
Benefits for homeless shelters
-Sack lunch sandwich making
-Benefit drives
-Donations
Fundraising for overseas hunger or-
ganizations
Example Organizations:
30 Hour Famine
Feed the Children
UNICEF
Drive to End
Hunger
SEARCH
Feed America
Bread for the World
There are an abundance of anti-hunger organizations to choose from! I hope I have in-
spired you to participate. If you have any please email me to let me know: [email protected]

This month: these stories are straight from DCON,
and local area clubs! Port Neches Groves Key Club

One word defining the Port Neches
Groves Key Club is hard working participa-
tion in various service projects such as Alex’s
Lemonade Stand, or helping out at a local
soup kitchen. These projects have certainly
shaped our organization into a group of car-
ing individuals who yearn to make a differ-
ence. Perhaps the most rewarding experience
was working with the Greater ARC of Beau-
mont. We have helped with Fall Festivals,
holiday parties and most of all making chil-
dren with disabilities feel special. Through
District Convention, I hope our Key Club can
learn a lot, strengthen our friendships, and
inspire people to make a positive impact.
Key Club to Circle K: Developing a Leader
BY: Thu-Mai Nguyen
M.B., Lamar HS
As a fellow Key Clubber at Lamar High School I have enjoyed my two years helping out my community. I have been volunteering for years and even joined other volunteering service organizations at my school but I especially value being in Key Club for the opportunities it provided. I was able to get in touch with my peers to come together and help those in need. I have participated in making sandwiches for the homeless, numerous fun run marathons, fund-raising carwashes, Alex’s Lemonade Stand, and at-tending our district’s Fall Training Conference. What I really appreciated about Key Club was the large net-work of people I got to become familiar with. At the Fall Training Conference, I met members of Key Club from schools close-by and all around Houston. I was able to interact and see how other students are taking the initiative and using Key Club at their school to make a difference. This helped us in creating new ideas to recruit members and try new projects. I also enjoyed the enter-tainment portion of the conference such as the Harry Potter themed Quidittch Ice Breaker and the magic perfor-mance where I got to be part of a levitating trick! Key Club has given me so much enjoyment in helping my com-munity and becoming a leader in making a difference that I wish to continue my experience in college by starting a Circle K!
