A word from your Lt. Governor _____________________________________________ Hello all! I hope you all had a relaxing holiday break! Now that the holidays have passed, election season is upon us! Club officers should schedule club elections for January or February so that incoming officers have plenty of time to settle into their new position. Also, the Lieutenant Governor Election is quickly approaching so please keep an eye out for more information in this newsletter. DCON! DCON stands for District Convention, and this year the annual convention will be held from March 31 to April 2 in Portland Oregon. DCON registration is due on February 1st, so please get information out to club members and begin the online registration process! More information about DCON can be found in this newsletter. Thank you all so much for your hard work over this year, and I hope to see you at DCON! Best, Kai Hollenberg Questions?

What has Division 74 been up to?
Lunch with Santa
Lunch with Santa is an annual event in the beginning of December.
From Sheldon Editor Jasmine Bolivar: “Here are a couple photos from the event called "lunch with Santa". This is where kids get to have a nice day doing arts and crafts and visiting with Santa. We socialized with all of them and helped them write letters to Santa and give them snacks. It was very fun!�
By Sedonah Breech, SEHS Club Editor
Club Elections Officers should have already scheduled or be in the process of scheduling club elections. While details of club elections are generally left up to the current club officers, it is nice to hold elections in January or February in order to allow new officers plenty of time to begin taking over duties. Also, please ensure that you email the current Lieutenant Governor, Kai Hollenberg, as soon as new officers have been elected so that they may be added to the division roster!
