Want to win a trip to the 2008 Kiwanis International Convention in Orlando, Florida, June 26-29, 2008?

Last summer two lucky Kiwanians won the chance to attend the 2007 Kiwanis International Convention at no cost, because they recruited new members and entered the 1-2-3 Key drawing.  Chu-Liang Hsu of Taiwan and Angie Dark of California won hotel, airfare, and registration costs for the annual worldwide meeting of Kiwanis in San Antonio, Texas, this July.

Second place winner, Hiroshi Kawasaki of Tokyo, Japan, won a day at the home of 2005-06 International President Steve Siemens, and third place winner Pixie Stone from Florida won a day with the Executive Director at the Kiwanis International Office.

Again this year, each Kiwanian who recruits one, two, or three new members and completes their enrollment process by June 1 can earn one, two, or three entries in the random drawing to be held on stage in San Antonio.  In addition to the top three prizes, one Kiwanian will win a Kiwanis International Life Membership, 50 will win a $100 gift card to the Kiwanis Family Store, and 100 will win $25 gift cards.

Each recruiter also will receive a bronze key lapel pin for one new member, a silver key for two new members, and a gold key for three new members.  These keys symbolize the fact that Kiwanians who recruit new members hold the key to achieving the goal of one million Kiwanis members by the 100th anniversary in 2015.

Angie Dark is looking forward to attending the 2007 International Convention.  She actually recruited more than three new members, helping to grow her club from 48 to 60 members.  Her secret?   “Every day is an opportunity to talk to someone about Kiwanis – at the hair salon, the auto mechanic, the cleaners.  It’s second nature for me, I tell them how much I enjoy Kiwanis and invite them to join.”

For complete information about the 1-2-3 Key program, check the Kiwanis International web site at www.kiwanis.org.

Beginning July 1, 2006, and running through June 1, 2007:

It's as easy as 123, you hold the key.
1 Recruit 1 new member and receive a bronze key lapel pin and one (1) entry in the random drawing.
2 Recruit 2 new members and receive a silver key lapel pin and an additional entry in the random drawing for a total of two (2) entries.
3 Recruit 3 new members and receive a gold key lapel pin and a total of three (3) entries in the contest.

Lapel pins will be mailed to the recruiter once the entry form, required paperwork and new member fees are processed. When a member continues to recruit additional new members, the corresponding key(s) will be sent.

Once gold level is achieved a member has attained the highest level of participation. The maximum level is a gold key lapel pin and 3 entries in the random drawing.
