VOLUNTEER
Consider volunteering for the Sergeant-at-Arms Committee. Sergeants-at-arms play an important role by providing logistical assistance and support at all sessions, forums and events. They enjoy a behind-the-scenes role — with plenty of time left over to enjoy other convention activities. Make sure to indicate your wish to be a sergeant-at-arms on your registration form.
Kiwanians from the host district can volunteer with the Host Committee. Members put their regional knowledge to use, performing tasks such as advising Kiwanians about things to do locally and in surrounding areas, staffing the registration desk and more. Members are asked to perform a minimum of three volunteer hours.
NOTE: The Sergeant-At-Arms Committee is separate from the convention Host Committee.
BUDGET FOR THE CONVENTION
Make a place in your club’s budget so you can send two club representatives to the 2019 Kiwanis International convention. Delegates need to fill out the certificate of election of club delegates and alternates to the Kiwanis International convention.
As required by the Kiwanis International Bylaws, the funds for sending club delegates come from a club's administrative budget. When you calculate the budget for the convention, here are the costs you should consider covering for two people:
- Registration fee and select ticketed events
- Travel
- Hotel accommodations
- Per diem
If your club needs some guidance with budgeting, a template for a club budget is available in the treasurer section of the Leadership Guide.
We hope you’ll take the opportunity to send club delegates to the convention. They’ll vote on issues shaping the future of Kiwanis. And they’ll return better equipped to help your club serve your community. After all, representation at Kiwanis International convention is more than just a line item in your club’s budget. It’s your club’s voice.
