2004-2005 GOVERNOR'S INTERCLUB CONTEST

WHAT IS AN INTERCLUB AND WHO CAN WE VISIT ?

When at least 2 or more* members of a KIWANIS CLUB visit another KIWANIS CLUB OR SPONSORED YOUTH CLUB at a regular meeting or any other organized function qualifies as an Interclub.  *The number of members needed for an interclub is dependent upon  the size of your club.*  You are encouraged to visit your sponsored youth clubs and observe their activities and participate in them, if possible. The sponsored youth, hopefully, are our future KIWANIANS. District Governor Tom Sullivan hopes we will visit every club in our Division during the contest which runs from 10/1/2004 to 6/30/2005.. This is called a "Round Robin." . The 3 divisions with the highest percentage of "Round Robins" will be honored at the annual convention as well as all clubs qualifying for a "Round Robin."
