Second
Key Leader Weekend April 25-27, 2008
by Babs Lee
Final plans are underway
for the Second Capital District Key Leader Weekend
being held April 25-27th at Arlington Echo in Millersville,
MD. The menus have been selected, the camp visited
by Capital District Key Leader leadership, and registration
well underway. All we need are for the Kiwanis Clubs
to be sure their sponsored youth participants are getting
registered and subsequent invoices paid. April 11 is
the first deadline to keep in mind, after which a $25
fee late fee will be assessed by Kiwanis International.
Actual registrations can be made until 5 PM on Wednesday,
April 23rd. The next two weeks are critical to the
success of the program. Pictured upper left is a group
activity during the first Key Leader held last fall.
We are pleased to announce
that the Facilitator for the weekend will be Christopher
Niles (right). Chris Niles has been known to conduct
workshops in full clown regalia. But there is one topic
he doesn't clown around about: leadership development.
Chris is an assistant dean and the director of First-Year
Programs and Student Leadership Development at DePauw
University in Greencastle, Indiana. In this role, he
oversees the mentoring program that is at the heart
of the university's program for first-year students.
He also serves as interim coordinator of Fraternity
Affairs, and has worked in residence life, orientation,
and leadership programming at Wesleyan University in
Middletown, Connecticut, and Indiana University in
Bloomington, Indiana. With more than a decade's worth
of experience in designing and delivering dynamic development
opportunities for both student and professional audiences,
Chris' primary focus of leadership development in his
programming is highly interactive and experiential.
In addition to Chris, the Arlington Echo weekend will be attended by Don Parker from the Kiwanis
International staff. GET THOSE REGISTRATION ONLINE
