Hi Division 4!

Have you all been keeping up with your new year’s resolu-

tions? Enjoying the lovely cold weather? Are your clubs

planning anything fun for the upcoming months?

I sincerely hope all of you had a wonderful winter break

and have been keeping warm lately. Also to all those who

had exams these past weeks, I hope they went well and

that you experience a good start to the new semester.

DCON is fast approaching. It’s hard to believe that it’s al-

ready been nearly ten months since DCON 2013.

What’s in this Issue:

Caring—Our Way of Life

Be sure to check out the ECD website to download the DCON Section-A package to get more infor-

mation on DCON, and Section-B package to get all you need if you plan on running for a board po-

sition.

With DCON around the corner, we will be having our Division 4 Mid-Winter Rally soon, which is when

LG elections and board endorsement elections will be done.

If you or anyone you know is interested in running for a position or endorsement, it’s important that

they get in contact with me. In the upcoming weeks, more information will be released, so keep an

eye on your email and the Facebook groups.

Good luck to everyone for the upcoming month! I look

forward to hearing about what you all have planned and

anticipate seeing pictures.
