If it makes you feel good to help someone in need ... we need you.
Kiwanians, it is time to review our 2011-12 commitments and complete our distinguished member forms. To qualify, club members must complete the following criteria:
Recruit two (2) new active members.
Participate in three (3) or more Kiwanis or SLP service projects.
Attend one (1) of the following: International, District Convention, Regional/Zone Educational Conference, Key Club, Circle K, Aktion or Key Leader Convention, KIEF or ASPAC Conference or Convention.
Make a personal contribution to the District or Kiwanis International Foundation.
Bonus activities that show a commitment to excellence are listed on the form.

All the above should be a great start to having a significant number of Distinguished Members, Clubs and Divisions, culminating in qualifying as a distinguished District for 2011-12. Many of our clubs have already completed several service projects before, after and during the holiday season. To be successful, we must continuously plan, create, and initiate new ideas and new programs with a focus toward leadership education and growth.
Members help your clubs and clubs help your divisions and divisions help your district excel. Although it is only April, the deadline for submission of forms is October 15, 2012. We all know how quickly time flies, therefore I encourage you to rally your members to begin documenting those items which apply now, and get ready for the big push to the finish line by September 2012. Together we can make this a record year.
