Winter is finally over and spring is here. It's time to turn our thoughts to Kiwanis summer events,
holidays and conventions.
Registration time for Saint John!
The 93rd Annual Kiwanis EC&C Convention is in Saint John New Brunswick - August 4-7 2010. Registration can be made at the convention web site www.kiwanissj2010.org. Be sure to register early and to book your accommodation. Summer is always busy in Saint John but this summer they are celebrating their 225th Anniversary and hotel rooms are booked solid. The chances of 'getting a room' when you arrive are next to none and sleeping on the dock is not that comfortable.
When arranging your flight, be certain you are booking for Saint John New Brunswick and NOT St. John's Newfoundland.
Is it time for Vegas?
The 95th Kiwanis International Convention is being held in Las Vegas Nevada June 24-27 2010
Full details and registration can be found at Kiwanis Convention 2010

Our 2009/2010 Kiwanis Eastern Canada and the Caribbean Leadership Team. |
It takes a special person to step forward and volunteer to chair a District committee. Several of our newly appointed chairs gathered in Trois-Rivières to meet with Governor Gary and International Trustee Dr. John Button. These men and women are amongst the many who have stepped up to the plate and proclaimed, "I am the one."
Drop them a line with your thoughts, your concerns and your thanks. |
