\GREETINGS FROM YOUR NEW LEIUTENANT GOVERNOR!
Hello Division 15!
My name is Olivia and I’m so excited to be working with you all this service year! We’re
in for an amazing time, so make sure you hold on for the ride and check your emails
constantly so you can see what your District Board, your fellow Division 15 members,
and I are up to! These emails also contain important information that does require a
response. I hope that all of you who were able to attend LTC had a great time this is
truly a transitional period where the new officers can get a feel for stepping up, and so
the old officers can train them to take over their jobs the following year. Use it wisely! So
what’s going on at the District Level? THE INTERNATIONAL CONVENTION IN
WASHINGTON, DC IS VASTLY APPROACHING! I hope at least some of you are going,
because I’m very excited to meet you all. I plan to be visiting all of the clubs starting in -
September of the 2013-14 school year. Keep up the great work! If you have any
questions please turn to the last page of this newsletter, and you will find my contact
information!
I’m looking forward to hearing from you all soon.
Yours in Service,
Olivia Austin- LTG Division 15

Service Spotlights- FORT ANN HIGH SCHOOL KEY CLUB
“This month the Fort Ann Key Club focused on one of our biggest events of the year, an
even that we always end our school year with. This even is the American Cancer
Society's Relay for Life. This year, our club raised a total of over 500 dollars for relay, and
went to the event with not only just our Key Club, but many members of our school. At
relay, may people from all over New York come together to fight cancer. Every year
they pick a theme for the event as well as have festive games going on during it. This
year the theme was Carnival Style and had games like pin the nose on the clown,
balloon animal making, and a scavenger hunt. A few Key Clubbers hunted in the
calendar hunt and won! They even lite up some hot air balloons to light up the night
sky. It was pretty exciting. In the end, the two Co-Presidents of our Key Club (Jonah
Gould and I) stayed up the full 12 hours. All of the other members fell asleep in tents or
in the camper that one of our school’s PTSO members donated.”

SERVICE SPOTLIGHTS: HADLEY-LUZERNE HIGH SCHOOL KEY CLUB!
“ This past month our Key Club wanted to help out a member of the community who
had been helping out our school for many, many years. Her name is Linda Waite. Linda
has MS, and is bound to a wheel chair. Because of this, she can no longer do much on
her own. She was an extremely active member of the community until it became too
hard for her and her husband to get her into the van. So we stepped up to help. The
students who went to Saga City made a lot of money off selling basket raffle tickets, so
we decided to give it a whirl. Each grade level, along with other clubs created a
basket and donated it to our Key Club for us to raffle off in order to raise money to help
Mrs. Waite get enough money for a lift for her van which was about $1,500. She had
already saved up $400, and we wanted to give back to her for serving so faithfully in
our community. After the drawings on May 4th, we invited Linda to the school to receive
a donation. When she was told that we raised $1,100 so she could get her ramp she
was so grateful and excited. We made a difference in our community just by giving
back to one person who helped us out for years, and you can too.”
