![]() 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). In this issue: DCON forms requiring mailing ACTIONS TO BE TAKEN THIS MONTH . . .District Convention – Mail Required Forms by March 26th Now that you have registered for DCON, be sure Code of Conduct and a Medical Authorization forms are completed on each student and in the mail no later than March 26. After this date, do NOT mail them. Instead, take them to convention and turn them in at check in. Be prepared to spend a lot more time at check in if you do not mail them in time. Make copies of these forms before mailing or turning in. Be sure the Medical form is notarized and the Code of Conduct is signed. Adults do NOT have to complete the Medical Auth form, but they DO have to complete the Code of Conduct (but no parent signature required Mail forms to: Florida District of Key Club, 5545 Benchmark Lane, Sanford, FL 32773-8116. District Convention – Send Payment Immediately Once you “submit” your online DCON registration information, you are expected to put the invoice into the payment process at your school immediately. Also, you are expected to pay for any registrations you submit. So, do not hit submit unless you have collected the money and are ready to have a check cut (assuming you are not paying online through PayPal). Scholarships and One Award Deadline Extended All scholarships and the Governor’s Day Project deadlines have been extended to April 1 postmarked. More information coming in a separate email. All other awards that had a March 1 deadline are closed. There are still awards and contests that are submitted at DCON. Be sure to sign up at DCON for the oratory and the talent contests. Convention Program Advertisement Remember to sell at least $100 in convention advertisement to qualify your club’s seniors for college scholarships. Even if you do not attend convention (which I hope is not the case!), you can still sell ads and qualify. Of course, selling more than $100 will produce more money for scholarships. Deadline is March 20th for “camera-ready” ad copy. Need Webmaster Applications District Webmaster is an appointed position and applications should be submitted at DCON. Please encourage any of your members who you feel might have the expertise to work on our website. See information at http://www.floridakeyclub.com/dcon/elections. New Club Officers and Faculty and Kiwanis Advisor Information Now that your new club officers have been elected, please be sure the club secretary completes the new online OIS form for 2010-2011 right now, before April. This is EXTREMELY important; it is our only source of information for communication with you and the club’s officers. PLEASE follow up to be sure this is done before April. Don’t forget to have the Advisors’ information included as well. This online form is accessed at http://opr.floridakeyclub.com/opr/opr_login.asp. The club’s current password will still work through March. Also, be sure to call on your Key Club Lt. Governor to conduct the installation of officers. That is one of their responsibilities and they look forward to doing it. Remember to invite your sponsoring Kiwanis club members. Last Day to Complete 2009-2010 Pride Reports On April 15th, the Pride Reports will be locked and no changes will be possible. The new club secretary will have to establish a new password to complete the April Pride Report. All this will be explained in the secretaries’ workshop at DCON. Hope to see everyone at District Convention next month! David David McCampbell 431 NW 197 Ave., Pembroke Pines, FL 33029 Leave a Reply |
