Divisions/Lt. Governors

Just as a club president is the leader of the club, a lt. governor is the leader of the division. A lt. governor works closely with clubs in the division to helps ensure club leaders feel supported and have access to necessary information that will benefit their clubs.

The Nebraska-Iowa District has 26 divisions. Division 7 currently has no clubs and the lt. governor position is left vacant.
