METRO KANSAS CITY KIWANIS COUNCIL Dick Snedden and Whit Kirk shared the “Kiwanis for Katrina’s Children” project and a possibility for the funds to be directed to the K Bar B Youth Ranch North of New Orleans. They also shared that the project at the NASCAR Race Track brought in $1,500 to go toward the project. The Kiwanis phone line will now be answered by Gary Goebel. The Metro Council will take responsibility for the expenses, relieving the Downtown Club of that responsibility.

KIWANIS DUES STRUCTURE Harold Craven and Howard Bell gave a presentation regarding the new member dues and the existing member dues structure, as they have changed this year.
-
The new member fee is now $55 ($50- to International and $5 for MO-ARK), which pays for the rest of the billing year. The new member fee includes a pin, membership card, membership certificate, a supplies catalog and the Kiwanis magazine.

The normal membership yearly dues is payable once a year rather than semi-annually. The billing date for dues depends on the club charter date. International dues remains at $63.90 ($42 Int'l dues, $10 Kiwanis magazine, $11.90 Insurance) and $20 for MO-ARK district [$1 convention, $3 newsletter, and $16 district dues].
