We at New York District Key Leader are ecstatic to be offering two events this year!
The first event will be in April in the Hudson Valley area, at the beautiful Huguenot YMCA campgrounds in Huguenot, NY, on Friday April 25 through Sunday April 27.
The second event, and only second by days, is our long-running event at the inspiring Camp Stella Maris in Livonia, NY, on Friday, May 2 through Sunday May 4.
Students are welcome to come from any part of New York to these events!
Key Leader is a life changing leadership program for 14-18 year olds. We accept students for our program regardless of where they fall academically in their class. We believe that everyone deserves a chance to grow, learn about themselves and reach beyond where they are today. Key Leader impacts the potential of these students by encouraging and supporting growth in personal integrity and community building. Every day you meet young people with promise and potential, and you can tell they would excel if given the opportunity. Key Leader is one of the best opportunities that Kiwanis offers. We reach out to students who are not necessarily in Key Clubs and give them a chance to lead. Key Leader is a unique and powerful opportunity for reaching out to these students and inspiring them to be more.
Please have students sign up early at www.Key-Leader.org.
Registration is $200 inclusive of lodging, meals, snacks, materials and Lead Facilitator. Students returning to Key Leader interested in being a Student Facilitator should indicate that on their registration and answer a few simple questions. Student Facilitators register for $115. Key Club Members register for $175.
We do need event chaperones, who also need to register early as a background check is required a minimum of four weeks before the event.
Those interested in joining this leadership team and help inspire young people to excel should contact me at askmj@hvc.rr.com for a code to enter when registering. May your year be full of amazing opportunities, enriching experiences, inspiring moments and of course Key Leader!
Please don't hesitate to contact me with questions.
