The New York District uses both the Empire State Kiwanian, its print publication, and this web site to communicate with Kiwanians in the district regarding club, division and district news as well as events involving the Kiwanis Service Leadership Programs.
Information submitted for publication will be evaluated and made available to District Kiwanians in the most efficient way possible. Often that will mean that it will be posted here on the District Web Site. Web Site postings are available without delay to help sponsors promote upcoming events or report on events after they are over.
Unlike the Empire State Kiwanian, where space constraints and timing issues may affect publication, the web site can accommodate any volume of information and can be updated at any time.
Information is selected for publication in the Empire State Kiwanian, which is mailed to the home of each district Kiwanian, based on its importance and to its value in alerting members to upcoming events they might want to attend.
Here is the publication schedule for the Empire State Kiwanian for the current year:
| Issue | Copy Deadline | Issue Date |
| Issue 1 | Dec. 1, 2009 | Dec. 23, 2009 |
| Issue 2 | March 10, 2010 | April 10, 2010 |
| Issue 3 | July 1, 2010 | Aug. 1, 2010 |
The preferred method of submitting information is by e-mail; the address is given below.
When sending an e-mail, be sure to include all the information that will be needed to explain the event to people visiting the web site or reading the Empire State Kiwanian. Clubs and divisions are encouraged to submit information on their service projects and fund raising events. Activities involving Service Leadership Organizations are welcome as well. When sending e-mails, indicate the club name in the subject area.
Photos can be sent by e-mail. Please identify the people in the pictures, being careful to spell the names correctly. Please send photos as e-mail attachments, not placed in a Word document.
If you wish to submit a printed photograph, mail it to the address below. The size of the picture does not matter, but it needs to be of sufficient quality to be used. Pictures taken from newspapers or photocopies of photographs will not be of acceptable quality. Do not write on the back of the pictures.
If necessary, your submission will be edited before publication.
A submission form is available that can be used either as an e-mail attachment or for a postal mail submission.
