Name Trains!
Omak Key Club and Okanogan Key Club joined together
for this amazing project, thanks to Wally Richards!
Key Club and Kiwanis
made wood letters that
connect to a train
engine, allowing
children to spell out their
names through toys!
We each had our own task
to do. Such as cutting out
the letters, gluing on the
wheels, and staining the
wood for final touches!
In one month, we made
three sets total!
One was donated to the
North Elementary
Preschool:
The second set was
donated to the
Montessori Preschool:
And, we will be delivering
the third set to the Liberty
Bell Preschool!
Below is a picture of Wally
Richards, Kiwanian, setting
our first letter on the shelf.
Wally is the chair of this
project. Big thank you to
him from Key Club for
letting us use his
woodshop!
This is the first year we have
done the Name Trains
Project. Since it was such a
success, we hope to keep
doing it all year. Anyone
who is interesting in being
a part of Name Trains,
please contact me (203-
4476) or Wally (322-3227)
for more information!

Big Thanks to Tommy
Zbysewski, McKenzie Ervin,
Jasmair Bains, and Jag Bains
for coming to all the DCMs so
far!
If weather allows, we will
be going ice-skating
afterwards at the
Winthrop Ice Rink.
Divisional Council
Meetings!
November DCM:
December DCM:
The November DCM was a
conference call on
November 18 at 5pm. We
did have at least one
attendee from each club,
but this DCMs attendance
was weak compared to
our past DCMs. Since it
was our first time doing a
conference call and
members forgot about it, I
have decided to go back
to face-to-face Divisional
Council Meetings. But
those are the fun ones, so
be excited for next
month’s!
To those who could not
attend this DCM:
I need all members to
email me TWO NAMES of
members who are most
involved in your club.
Please email this to
[email protected]
by December 15!
Where: Winthrop, WA at
Liberty Bell High School
When: December 18th at
4:00 p.m.
Who: Key Club members
and officers, Kiwanis,
Builder’s Club, and
anyone who is still
interested in joining!
Hosting this Divisional
Council Meeting with me
will be Tom Zbysewski.
Tom and I will make it
worth your drive down to
Winthrop, so make sure
you attend! If you have
any additional questions
about this, please feel
free to contact me.
Hope to see you all there!

Come help with Key Club
Christmas Caroling!
December 15th in Omak ☺
Key Club helped at the
Annual Christmas Parade
on December 8th. We had
over 20 Key Clubbers
which helped serve hot
chocolate, sing for
entertainment, and finally
take a picture with Santa!
On December 7th, Division 9 came together to put on a
community movie night. We chose classic holiday movies:
The Polar Express and The Nightmare before Christmas. As
a division, we raised over $200 for DCON in total. Since it
was a great success, we will be planning our second
community movie night soon.
Come volunteer!
