Ideas for the contest:

Clubs decorate their tables to showcase their  Signature project or what best represents them in their respective communities

Do we need to come up with additional criteria?

Who will judge?

What will the winning club receive? (Maybe can substitute this towards distinguished club criteria for the winning club?

Do we need to set a deadline for those planning to participate? Or do we just let them show up and decorate their table?

12/19/22--Mtg w/DE & DMC
I welcome your thoughts but I was thinking that we can together plan our agenda for the first committee meeting in January 2023. I think that we need to be on the same page regarding our committee's purpose and goals before we meet with the overall group.

Current Membership--3777 as of Nov. 30th. This is up from Oct. 1 number of 3674 and up from last year 3537. Lost 8 clubs last admin year.

Opened 5 clubs last year. Current opening goal is 4. Gov. wants to potentially open an additional 4. So far we have opened 2 this year.

Topics of concern for membership:

Losing members from established clubs

Closing more clubs than opening

Getting the membership info to the appropriate people to move the membership needle forward.

Membership Chairs, LGs, Pres. & Secretaries need to be the first line of communication with the club MC as the point person.

Determined that the MCs will need some training

Expectations of role

District membership numbers

How's on your committee, how to choose the appropriate individuals

We need to provide some guidance for committee selection:

Who's been in the club over 5yrs

Who's not on another committee or serving in a leadership role

Who's been in the club less than 1 yr

Board member

Meeting should take place during Q2

Link to club membership chairs https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1mOmCkzWnEfFUzhhquOhmepMnyamYfPwS/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=111565317723898531790&rtpof=true&sd=true

73 clubs of 121 do not have Membership chairs designated.

Boot Camp

Need to create a follow up survey for feedback for upcoming events. Ro will put together a draft. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScIFoT8uft8Q5ITW-56dd9o_JKYWP1glCaXkUYqvlbITIkiiQ/viewform?usp=pp_url

Need to include new clubs next session.

Which platform will be used?

Need additional guidance regarding who from the club should participate.

When to begin next Boot Camp Session?

Communication

Jen will check into a free/low cost text platform for members to receive text messages about events, etc.

Currently Jen sends a weekly email to all members on trending Kiwanis topics (each Tuesday)

New Club Support

Best practices for sponsoring clubs

Reach out to Lafayette to see if they or another good new club sponsor will do a session at DCON

Strengthening Existing Clubs

Dorothy will come up with a list of the best 5-7 things that help strengthen clubs

Bruce's goal is to strengthen 4 existing clubs in district

Next meeting will be scheduled with all of the committee. Ro will create a doodle poll for it. https://doodle.com/meeting/participate/id/eE8z1Lld

Highly impactful and respected leaders have something in common: They know how to lead people they don’t like! At the foundation of this concept, one must embrace the idea of Reflective Leadership. What is it about you as the leader that needs to be examined in order to ensure your team achieves optimal results in the most effective way and in the shortest time frame? Co-authors, Scherrine Davenport-Gray and Anthony Herbert, help you delve deeper into the Reflective Leadership model by exploring questions like…

Do you come across as intimidating or insecure as a leader?

Are you constantly experiencing a MAD Mass Exodus?

Do you value what your team has to offer?

Is it important for your team members to respect AND like you?
