Circle K

I don't know where the time goes nine months of the Circle K year has already passed. I hope you have taken a chance to visit the local club. You do not have to be the sponsor to ask them to help with your projects. Circle K members prefer to work in the communities.

In October 84 members from the district went to Kamp Kiwanis to help clean up the camp. The weather was cold and wet. That did not stop them from working outdoors.

In November we held our annual conference in Lake George where there were 185 in attendance. We had a motivational speaker on Friday night who really got everyone enthused for the weekend. On Saturday various workshops and topics for members and officers on leadership skills.

The program is not just education. They have a banquet on a smaller scale than what we have at district convention and a dance to celebrate the first six months of the year.

Now they are preparing for the District Convention which will take place March 20-22, 2015 at the Albany Hilton, 40 Lodge Street. Each year we have a convention honoree, this year's honoree will be Past Governor Jack Tetamore. Jack also served as the District Administrator of Circle K. We will also have an alumnus of Circle K receive the Glen Fitzpatrick alumni award. The honoree this year will be Richard Hall who has been a member of the Kiwanis committee of Circle K for more than 25 years. We would like to see many Kiwanians attend to attend to honor these great Kiwanians. Information will be coming out soon.
