The 64th Annual District Convention of theNew Jersey District of Key Club International wasoverflowing with dedicated Key Clubbers allgathering together to travel the world of servicefrom one Service Year to another! From awesomesessions with the 2009-2010 NJ District Board totwo amazing dances, there was never a dull momentat the Valley Forge Convention Center for DCON!We arrived on Friday ready to begin our journeythrough the world of service. Almost 700 KeyClubbers and I had the distinct honor of meeting

our Keynote Speaker Kiwanis InternationalPresident Paul Palazzolo. It was amazing to see sucha high ranking and wise Kiwanian in person. Afterthe welcoming session we all went to caucuses tohear the candidates speeches. Each candidate wasvery creative and excited to be running for anExecutive Board position! Saturday was by far thebusiest day of the weekend. We woke up early forbreakfast and then attended the first general sessionof the day. After this quick session we headed toour workshops and learned about everything from

how to be an effective club editor to how to bellydance. After the workshops were a few free hoursin which the talent show took place. The acts wereinspired as they are every year; the amount oftalented Key Clubbers is amazing!

Also on Saturday, the House ofDelegates met to vote on Executive Boardraces, amendments, and resolutions. OnSaturday evening, the contests winnerswere given their trophies and theoutstanding members of theNew Jersey District were acknowledged for

their hard work and dedication. OnSunday, there was a walk to benefitChildrens Specialized Hospital hosted byour own Brick Memorial High School. TheFarewell Session on Sunday is both sad andhappy simultaneously; sad because it is thetime when the current district board isretired, but happy because it is also thetime when the new district board isinstalled.

summer is right around the corner!

And with the summer comes Key

Clubs annual International

Convention, this time in the historic

Memphis, Tennessee! This year, Key

Club International has put together

an amazing Convention, and the

District is planning yet another tour

to go along with it!

ICON is a one week

convention that drew over 1500 Key

Club members, advisors, and

administrators last year. During your

time in Memphis, youll have the

opportunity to meet new people,

share Key Club Experiences, and

leave with a new best friend. Youll

also get a taste of the variouscaucuses, workshops, elections, and

delegations that make Key Club

successful and make you a better

Key Clubber.

The New Jersey District will travel to

Memphis by bus, leaving New

Jersey on the morning of July 4th,

and returning on the evening of

July 12th. On the road to ICON, we

will stop at many points of interest,

including Cedar Point AmusementPark in Sandusky, Ohio, Graceland,

and the Civil Rights Museum. At

ICON, the festivities begin with a

private concert by Ohio pop-rock

superstars Relient K, and continue

with appearances by such

celebrities as Clay Aiken and Josh

Hutcherson!

It will truly be a week to remember.Anyone interested in attending,

please contact me ASAP for more

information (including a primer and

registration form), as the first

payment is due by May 15th. If

money is an issue, feel free to ask

your Kiwanis Club to help you out

with the costs. They would be glad
