The Formula

The holidays are now behind us, it's now 2016. The New York District made a big difference in the community during the holiday season.
Now it's time to go back to work. Gov. Forbes Irvine's goal is to take care of our own. Well, what a better way is to bring a friend to join the Kiwanis family.
For the last three years we have not had a positive gain in our district. Now is the time for lieutenant governors and presidents to motivate, build membership, and clubs.
We all need to do our share. If each member brought in just one new member we would be 14,000 strong. That would be amazing. The way to make this happen
is to have open houses, market your club on Facebook, social media, and all other marketing tools.
The Formula Team has put together an incentive program. Review it pass it along to all your clubs and you membership chair. I have witnessed all the amazing projects and events that we do.
Use it as a marketing tool. The Formula Team will make the time to visit your divisions. You just have to ask. We are here for you.
I would like to congratulate Joe Eppolito for his appointment as vice chair of the Formula. Let's show our support and grow.
Here is the incentives which are available:
1. Bring a New Member (not a dual member) — Member and sponsor will receive a Formula t-shirt.
2. Bring 2 New Members (not a dual member) - Member and sponsor will receive a t-shirt, K-Key.
3. Bring 3 New Members (not a dual member) – Member and sponsor will receive a golf-shirt Formula personalized and a K-Key.
4. Bring 4 New Members (not a dual member) - Member and Sponsor will receive a throw-back personalized K-Key.
5. Bring 5 or More New Members (not a dual member) Member and sponsor will receive a Jacket and personalized K-Key.
