BECOME A MEMBER!

The process of becoming a member of Kiwanis begins with an invitation by a member of the Golden Empire Kiwanis to attend a minimum of three members. If the potential member is interested, the sponsoring member will complete a New Member Proposal Slip that is forwarded to the Membership Growth committee. Following committee approval, the Board of Directors votes on the application. Once accepted, the prospective member must pay the membership fee and first month’s dues and meals. At the next regular meeting, the “new member” is inducted at a short ceremony.

MEMBERSHIP QUALIFICATIONS

Members are expected to participate regularly in meetings and club functions. If a member cannot attend the regular meetings, he/she is encouraged to attend other clubs in the area for a “make-up” meeting. Board meetings and other special events also count as “make-ups”. When four or more members visit another club together, it is called an “interclub”. These types of visitations are encouraged. Regular attendance gives the members a chance to get to know each other and build lasting friendships. Active involvement and participation in the club’s various service projects and activities are an important component of membership. Strengthening Kiwanis by lending your talents and special skills where they are needed, for the betterment of the community, is strongly encouraged.
