My name is Mario Hernandez, and I am honored to be serving as your 2008
- 2009 District Governor. I have spent the past two years working with
the District Board as Technology Chair and Lieuten- ant Governor. Some of
my major goals for this year are to raise $20,000 for Child-
I would like to thank all of the RMD, key clubbers who helped make this year's International Convention such a success. We were well represented at ICON, and everyone had a great time. We were able to raise some money for COPI, make trauma dolls,
ren of Peace
International, have members
attend International Convention in Denver,
and increase membership in each club.
This can all be made possible
with every-
one's effort. I would like to thank all of you
in advance for
the hard work and dedicat-
ion you have put into COPI.
and even win the spirit stick during the Farewell Session! Overall, ICON was a big success, and should help to streng- then our district quite a bit. For those who weren't there, our new International President is Kia Albertson- Rodgers, and the VP is Jonathan Yang.
As another year begins, please take time out to consider the importance of strengthening your home clubs and planning ahead for the fall season of service. Please start preparing for attendance at Fall Rally, and contact you Lieutenant Governors for information. Also, keep in mind that a new Key Club service initiative is going into effect, and being planning now so that you're clubs are ready to shoulder this newest load.
