Kiwanis clubs should encourage members, especially new members, to consider attending a district meeting. The club should budget the cost of registration fees and ask members attending to be ambassadors for the club, as well as bring back notes of what they observed. The District Mid-Year Conference is for the current PNW administrative officers to inform membership on accomplishments for this year, and to share goals the Governor has set. Benefits for the members attending are many, but primarily, they are meeting Kiwanis friends, and seeing first-hand what other clubs are doing. Attendees should be encouraged to share those things with their home club to make suggestions of new projects the club should mmmmmm consider. There are other benefits, like seeing the impact of the team of members who support the three District Project: KCCP, Sign, & Saving Spectacles.
