Welcome to the newly designed Kentucky-Tennessee Kiwanis web page. Thanks to Bob Hillhouse, the KT webmaster for his outstanding work in putting this web page together. It is functional, aesthetically pleasing, and is a consistent with the marketing look and feel of Kiwanis International.
But a web page is only useful if you use that web site to become active in future Kiwanis activities. It is only useful if you share with others what your Kiwanis club does and why you are proud of your contributions to children in your community. Only then will other Kiwanians read those accounts and be motivated to replicate your efforts in their communities.
A web page, and a district publication like the K-T Notes, is an opportunity to tell the district story. We are proud that we have more than 5,500 Kiwanians in more than 160 clubs throughout our district. And that strength makes it possible for us to provide more than $100,000 in support services each month principally to children in Kentucky and Tennessee communities.
As Kiwanians we need to use a variety of communication vehicles to tell the Kiwanis message. What is that message? It is simply that our goal is to change the world one child and one community at a time. That is who we are. That is what we do.
What vehicles do we use to tell this message? We use club web sites, club bulletins (both printed and electronic), club brochures, poster displays, advertising, and our elevator speeches.
We have been, and continue to be successful. But the larger and more dedicated we are, the more likely it is that we will achieve even more in our community - and throughout the world.
As your new governor, I am looking forward to visiting you and your club to celebrate the growth of your club in both numbers and vitality, and to learn about what you are doing for children and for your community. Click here to learn more about my upcoming visits to your area.
