A Message from Your Lieutenant Governor
Official October Key Club Division 20 Newsletter Hey Division 20, I hope all of you are safe after all of the damage that Hurricane Sandy has caused. Most of you are probably without power at the moment and I hope that everything will be restored back to normal soon. Being that most of us are off from school and left without power, look at the bright side: you have even more time to prepare your very own Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF box! In addition, this newsletter will also cover topics including paying dues, registering members, the advocacy bracelets, and of course, a recap of our NJ District Fall Rally! Let me know if any of you have any questions, comments, or concerns because I’d be more than happy to assist you. Yours in Caring and Service, Rocky Trifari

Fall Rally Recap
Special thanks to all of you who took the time to attend Fall Rally, the largest gathering of Key Clubber in New Jersey, this year! It was great. Division 20 was very well represented, possibly by more members than ever before! We almost met our District Goal of having 3,000 members attend total but fell just a little short. For those of you who couldn’t attend this year, each division represented a country and a sport. Division 20 was given Germany and soccer. For those of you who will be in Key Club next year, I highly recommend going, it’s a ton of fun!

Membership Update Center 1. Go to www.keyclub.org/MUC to access the Membership Update Center. 2. Click "Register/Reset Password." 3. You'll be prompted to enter an email address. It is suggested that clubs use the advisor’s e-mail. *If you have a new faculty advisor or your faculty advisor's email has been rejected, then you will need to email memberservices@kiwanis.org with a request to update your club's faculty advisor contact information. 5. After you have set a new password for your club, you will be able to log into the Membership Update Center in future years using your advisor's email address and your personal password. Once you get into the system, it is much improved from previous years and should be fairly self-explanatory. For more details about how to navigate the system once you are logged in, please see Kiwanis' help video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0tfAvudii-w&feature=youtu.be Or contact me with questions!

Advocacy Bracelet Sale Advocacy Bracelets The New Jersey District Board is proud to announce that we will now be selling advocacy braceletes to raise money for the ELIMINATE Project! The braceletes will be the same size and same lettering as a typical "Livestrong" bracelet and will feature the saying "BElieve in YOUrself". They will be light blue and sold for $1 each.
Why should you get one? How can you get one? The bracelets were designed to raise awareness about this year’s advocacy focuses, which include anti-bullying, self-image, and suicide prevention. We hope that seeing this saying on someones wrist could give that person the will to fight for another day.
Each club will recieve the amount of advocacy bracelets that they have requested. Try to have sales throughout November.
