Key Club

The new school year has started and Key Club is in full swing.
We had our first Key Club District Board meeting in of September. We have more than 13,000 Key Clubbers in more than 230 clubs around the district.
The Key Club lieutenant governors have had or will have their Divisional Fall Rallies to train, educate and inform the incoming club officers and members. There is a lot of information that needs to be communicated to the clubs and their officers.
This year Gov. Hanna and her board decided to cut the number of District charities to 6 from 10 in the past years. The charities are: Kamp Kiwanis, KPTC, KPLD, Make A Wish, St Jude's Children's Hospital and Eliminate. We have always had the 3 Kiwanis District charities in our group. The governor's project in hunger and we will be working with The Giving Circle organization to accomplish this.
Our annual District Leadership Conference in March 18-20, 2016, at the Desmond Hotel in Albany. The International Convention will be from July 6-9, 2016, in Atlanta, Georgia. We will be looking for your financial support on both of these conferences. If you get a chance to speak to a Key Clubber that has gone to one or both of these events, they will tell you how much they get out of them.
I look forward to working with all of you this coming year.
