Instructions for caucus questioningDuring district caucusing, you will have very little time to get to know many candidates. Therefore, it is important that you make your questions count.

Here are some tips to help you make the most of this opportunity.

1. Come prepared.

Read through the Information on Candidates booklet well in advance of the first round of caucusing. Jot down any notes or questions you might have as you read. And if any of your questions have to do with official by-laws, policies and procedures, refer to your Key Club Guidebook! The Guidebook can be found at keyclub.org/guidebook.

2. Dig into the candidate’s platform.

If they promise to make change, ask them how they intend to do it. Ask them why the change is necessary. Ask them whether or not this change can realistically be accomplished during their year of service. Don’t just take their word for it!

3. Challenge your own assumptions.

Take time to study each candidate’s previous experience. If you feel like a critical component is missing, don’t simply discount the candidate. Ask why they believe they are qualified de-spite the perceived lack of experience. Ask how they intend to overcome a potential knowl-edge gap.

4. Don’t waste time with frivolous and inappropriate questions.

Questions like, “If you were a Starburst, what flavor would you be?” yield little to no relevant information and will be called out-of-order. If it won’t get you any closer to selecting a quali-fied candidate, don’t bother. You want the candidates elected to take their year in office very seriously. Now is your chance to set the tone.

Hello Key Clubbers! Welcome to the windy city of Chicago, Illinois where we are gathered to celebrate the 75th Annual Key Club International Conven-tion and yet another successful service year! I wish you the best experi-ence possible in making friends from across Key Club International, learning something new each day, and enjoying all that the city has to offer. This past service year, I have had the honor of serving alongside the members of Key Club International while serving as an International Trustee. Throughout my term, I have learned more about the dynamics of the organization that many of us consider to be our family, experi-ence service that comes from the heart, and witness the dedication and passion of members originating from all walks of life. As the 2018-2019 International service year kicks off, I am eager to begin, knowing that, if given the honor to serve as your Inter-national Vice President, this will be an amazing opportunity to give back to the members of Key Club who have taught me that caring is truly a way of life and to ensure that all districts are equipped for success. So vote for me, your trustee, for the position of IVP! Please feel free to introduce yourself at any time: I hope I get the chance to meet you all!you all!

As a trustee, your job is to relay information from International

down to your governors. I will do this by sending out bimonthly

videos/newsletters and emails when necessary.

The relationship between a trustee and governor is very important- especially with communication and goals set at the beginning of the term. I will put forth the effort and I will take initiative on the tasks assigned, so that I will always be providing for my districts.

The job of a trustee is very demanding and a great way to stay

on top of things is by communicating with the governors to

make sure that their needs are always met, and their questions

are always answered. With the plan set at the beginning of the

term, I will be able to plan out how the rest of the year will look

like!

Progress

As your International Trustee, I won’t just promote interaction between the district and International boards, I’ll also promote Kiwanis Family Relations in each assigned district by getting KCI District Board members in contact with their district’s Kiwanis Family counterparts.

As your International Trustee, I will optimize my assigned governors’ abilities to lead their districts into success. I will also optimize my graphic design and video making abilities by creating guides and videos for governors and their districts to use in times of need.

As your International Trustee, I will pollinate the flowers of service and success in my assigned districts. By that, I mean I will work with the district governors of my assigned districts to motivate their LTGs, club presidents, and in-turn their members to engage in service in their communities and beyond!

Key Clubbers and welcome to the 75th annual International Convention in the fabulous windy city of Chicago, Illinois! I’m

ecstatic to celebrate another year of outstanding service and exceptional servant leadership from this past year with you all in

one of my favorite cities in the United States! Over my three years in Key Club, I have had the honor and pleasure of serving

my club as their president and committee chair, as well as serving my district as their Kiwanis Family Relations Chair. From these experiences, I have developed

a deep understanding of how each level of Key Club operates together. However, my time in Key Club is far from over. My passion for this

organization is a never-ending devotion, and I hope to continue my journey as one of your International Trustees during my final year in

this amazing organization. With my knowledge, along with your support, we can make change and pop into service and success

that will take Key Club International to heights it has never reached before in the 2018-19’ year! Feel free to approach

Syd Stauffer

Syd’s Three Keys to Success

Service

to Members I would like to work with the membership development committee to spread the word about Key Club as well as improve the experience of club members that already exist. I would use my experience with working on the New Club Building and Reactivation Committee from my district as well as my other experiences working with clubs as a Lieutenant Governor to do this successfully.

Your

Kiwanis Family Connection

If I were able to work with the membership development committee, I would also be able to work with the other branches of the Kiwanis family and help unite them together in service. I would accomplish this by promoting events like Kiwanis Family Conference to my districts as well as providing information and resources to connect the different branches together. I would get in contact with the different governors and attempt to have video conferences with them to initiate good relations between the branches.

Doors

Open with Communication

I would use my interpersonal skills to make sure that my assigned districts were getting all of the help and resources that they need to function and progress. I would keep in correspondence with my governors and district boards in hopes to solve any problems that they may encounter.

Hello, Key Clubbers and welcome to ICON 2018! My name is Sydney Stauffer and I am running for International Trustee! My goal is to be your voice in service. When I served as President of my home club and Lieutenant Governor of Division 31/34 for the Illinois-Eastern Iowa District, my goal was to know and listen to the members in order to represent them well. I want to continue that as an International Trustee. Key Club has always been a major part of my life. My mom became the advisor at another school 15 years ago and I always went along to the events. Before high school I started a Builders Club at my school and when I finally got into high school, I was very excited to join my school’s Key Club! Please feel free to stop and ask me questions or introduce yourself throughout the week! I’d love to meet you all! Thank you for your consideration. So vote SYD to Serve Your Districts!

Welcome to the 75th annual International Convention! My name is Minh Tran, and I am so excited to spend this time with YOU celebrating all we have accomplished together. I have recently wrapped up my term as District Historian where I experienced an overwhelming sense of service, friendship, and LOVE. This organization has taught me the true meaning of servant leadership and how to be an active citizen in my community. Key Club has provided me with so much, and my dream to be able to give back to it. My platform centers around re- branding Key Club through social media campaigns and improving communications. My ultimate goal is to boost membership engagement in our organization and elevate the membership experience through LOVE. I am incredibly honored to have the opportunity to run and cannot wait to see you all in Chicago.

Welcome to the Windy City! It is an honor to be at the 75th annual Key Club International Convention alongside such a caring and competent group of servant leaders! This past year, I served as a Robert F. Lucas Outstanding Lieutenant Governor on the Carolinas District Board. My drive to perform meaningful service to the members of Key Club International will never cease. I hope you all will invest your confidence in me to serve as your International Trustee for the 2018-2019 service year! Feel free to come speak to me about my platform, horoscopes, or love of Taco Bell! Together, let’s have a great time at International Convention and remember that you can’t go wrong with Leslie Truong!

Yours in Friendship and Service,
