However, this also entitles setting and monitoring goals for your club, work with all other officers on your board to ensure everyone is on task, work very closely with your adviser, maintain regular communication with the Lieutenant Governor of your division, attend as many Kiwanis meetings as possible, and of course, run club meetings.
