 Dear Advisors, The purpose of this monthly email is to alert Faculty and Kiwanis Advisors of timely information that will help you carry out your Advisor responsibilities. It also is intended to educate Kiwanis Club leaders about their club’s responsibilities to their Key Club(s). ACTIONS TO BE TAKEN THIS MONTH . . .Spring Rallies Spring Rally is an important annual Key Club event. These are Zone meetings held in January and February where Lt. Governors for the next year are elected, District Convention is promoted, and training for members, officers, and advisors occurs. Certainly every club should be represented, but more importantly, many members from every club should attend. Your Lt. Governor should have been communicating with you and your club officers about the details. If you have not heard anything, contact me or your Assistant Administrator. Here is the schedule:
Need Candidates for Lieutenant Governor (LTG) As mentioned above, Spring Rally is where the Divisions’ LTG’s are elected for the next year. It is very important that each and every division has a LTG. As advisors, it is appropriate for you to encourage any Key Club members who display leadership qualities to consider running for this office to further develop their leadership skills. Please consider your Key Club members and encourage a young leader to go the next step in Key Club. District Convention – Deadlines This month is not too early to finalize your club’s plans for the 72nd Annual Florida District of Key Club Convention that will be held April 15-18, 2010. You should have received a mailing by now. If you have not, you can see the contents of the mailing at http://FloridaKeyClub.com/downloads/Convention-Material-11-29.pdf. Registration deadline is Feb. 20th and payment must follow the online registration within seven days of registering, if you do not pay online. There is no reason why every single club in Florida cannot have at least one Key Club member attend convention. Cost for the first registration is only $100 with the $100 club registration discount. You cannot beat that price! The link for all the information you need is http://www.FloridaKeyClub.com/DCON. Please note these deadlines: February 20, 2010 – Deadline for Convention registration, add $50 to cost after this date Convention Program Advertisement To help reduce the cost of convention and to provide college scholarships for Key Club seniors, clubs are asked to sell at least $100 in advertisement that will be placed in the convention program book. Key Club seniors from clubs that sell at least $100 in ads will be eligible for scholarships for the 2010-2011 school year with any monies that exceed the cost of the program book. See the convention website for the more information, including examples of ads. New Clubs Chartered to Date The Florida District has now chartered thirteen new clubs to date. Welcome to the advisors of these newest clubs. Here are the new clubs chartered since last month’s list: #8 St. Petersburg Catholic; 12/7/2009; Div. 13 LTG Frank Ji; Kiwanis Club of Gulf Beaches Last month’s informational email contained a lot of details on several topics. If you did not receive that email, please write to me so I can forward it to you. All of us in the Florida District of Key Club hope you have a great 2010! We thank you for all you do for Key Club. Let me know if I can be of service to you. David David McCampbell 431 NW 197 Ave., Pembroke Pines, FL 33029 Leave a Reply |
