Foundation Golf Tournament

The convention plans for golf are ready for all players. The events, within the

scramble, will be a hole-in- one contest, the longest drive in the fairway

for both men and women, closest to the pin, and the longest putt.

In addition, we will have a new special indoor putting contest at the

hotel. This special contest will be open to all people attending the convention. Men, women, children (at least age 12), can compete in this hole in one contest to win $5,000. Even if you have never held a club in your hands, we will allow you to attempt a long putt to win a grand prize of at least $5,000. Both events are fund raising events for the KT Foundation, entry fees will be charged.

The KY-TN Kiwanis District Foundation operates a store at the Mid-Year Conference and Annual

District Convention by offering wearing apparel for Kiwanis Club members. We are able to provide

shirts that are specific to a particular Kiwanis Club with their club name on the item. We also provide

some items from Kiwanis International.

For the Annual District Convention, all clubs are asked to provide an item that can be used for the

“Live and Silent Auctions” that are available throughout the convention. Items provided may be used

for the Live Auction conducted for the Foundation Luncheon at the convention. This provides fun and

excitement during the luncheon and raises funds for the Foundations’ many projects, such as,

scholarships, hearing aids for children, matching grants for club service projects and emergency

disaster funds. For any information regarding the

Foundation, contact Norman Martin, Executive

Director at 606-678-5985 or

KY-TN District Convention Official Program

Hello,

The Kentucky-Tennessee District would like to extend an invitation to you or your company to place

an advertisement in the 100th Annual KY-TN District Official Convention Program.

Kiwanis International is a global organization of volunteers dedicated to improving the world one

child and one community at a time. Kiwanis and its youth-oriented Service Leadership Programs

serve communities in more than 80 countries and geographic areas.

Founded in 1915 in Detroit, Michigan, Kiwanis International now comprises 600,000 members — men,

women boys and girls — worldwide.

As a part of this worldwide organization, The Kentucky and Tennessee District, with nearly 4700

members in 141 clubs, carry out many projects to assist the children of our community in many ways.

We raise money through Pancake Breakfasts and Soup Suppers, Peanut sales, and host Community

events such as rodeos, fireworks, and athletic competitions. The money raised is then used to

purchase items such as shoes, clothing, food, playground equipment, and many other needs that

improve the lives of children.

This year our annual district convention will be held August 17-

19, 2018 in Gatlinburg, Tennessee. We would like to offer you

the opportunity to be a part of the 2018 convention by placing

your advertisement in our official program where approximately

275 members will attend.

Please see the attached information to explore this opportunity.

Thank You,

Fran Marion
