“It was a lot more work than expected; I’m glad that the effort put into planning the events played off in the amount of people who showed up and the fun Key Clubber had during the actual event!” ~Theresa Lin

LTC Information

The 67th Annual Leadership Conference will be taking place from March 27-March 29. LTC is where all the Key Clubs in the New York District gather together for the weekend and reflect on all the service projects that were done during the year. Clubs/members that have done outstanding work are recognized and given awards. There are also several workshops ranging from Public Speaking to Improvisation.

New Lieutenant Governor Elect

This year’s new Lieutenant Governor is our very own president, Emily Li! Here’s her picture and interview provided by Humans of Key Club.

"Why did you join Key Club and what does it mean to you?"

"I joined Key Club for the community service projects, but I've discovered that Key Club encompasses so much more than that. I've had incredible opportunities to give back to my community in ways I had never considered previously. I have met so many wonderful people who share the same passion as I do, and I have grown as a person and as a leader."

"Why did you decide to run for LTG?" "I ran for LTG because I wanted to give back to a club, a division, an international organization that has given so much to me."

How come there aren’t a lot of events in Brooklyn/the Bronx? ~Because we have such a small amount of club members from those boroughs, it’s difficult to find enough people to go to events in those two boroughs.

However, our Projects Head has been searching for small volunteer service opportunities in the two boroughs o hopefully we’ll get to se more events.

I want to have a board position but I’m too afraid to run. What should I do?

-­‐Don’t be afraid to try new things, but if you’re really afraid of giving a speech then apply to be a head of a committee. Committee heads play a huge role in the club, there are multiple committee heads so apply to one that you’re most interested in.
