3 - Recommendation #5
1977-78 MAJOR EMPHASIS PROGRAM - PROGRESS REPORT
The committee reviewed the “Safeguard Against Crime – II” Major Emphasis Program package, the sale of supplies in support of the Major Emphasis Program and promotions undertaken to date. The committee believes that the work done to date has been excellent and has expressed the wish that resources for the promotion and use of MEP materials be prioritized throughout the year. The Commission believes that the worldwide applicability of any subject for potential programming should be given prime consideration, and it is essential that this concern be emphasized to the participants in the January 1978 Program Planning Conference.
In reviewing the sales numbers of those products associated with the Major Emphasis program, the committee believes that "What if they call me chicken?". Therefore, the committee has asked staff not to reorder this item once the current inventory is depleted. The Committee recognizes the unique importance of the presentation of the Program of Major Emphasis held each year at Council and calls for this to continue.
But for most other major crimes, the decline was smaller, so the overall percentage decline was only 1 percent. The committee agreed that while these figures are somewhat encouraging, crime is still a major problem. CRJJ1E AWARENESS QUOTIENT ("CAQ") ASPECT OF THE MAJOR FOCUS PROGRAM The Connnittee has discussed with interest the Crime Awareness Quotient program.
CRJJ1E AWARENESS QUOTIENT ("CAQ") ASPECT OF THE MAJOR EMPHASIS PROGRAM The Connnittee reviewed with interest the Crime Awareness Quotient program
The staff reviewed for the committee the current status and promotional efforts of the Builders Club program. The committee then reviewed the current policy of requiring sponsoring Kiwanis clubs to pay an annual $25.00 sponsorship fee. It was questioned whether the failure of some clubs to pay the 1976-77 fee perhaps indicated their reluctance to pay an annual assessment for a local club activity.
The committee proposes that the situation be assessed next year by the Council's Program Development Committee.
KEYWANETTES PROGRAM - BACKGROUND AND STATUS REPORT
The committee recognizes that the request for a Keywanettes district structure for the Texas-Oklahoma District of Kiwanis International be approved. Said district, in accordance with Board Policy C3O-D, shall be solely responsible for the organization, management and control of its Keywanettes district structure.
PRESENTATIGN OF THE 1978-79 THEME, OBJECTIVES, AND MAJOR EMPHASIS PROGRAM(S) IN MIAMI BEACH
REPORT OF THE BOARD'S COMMITTEE ON PROPERTY AND SUPPLIES TO THE MEETING OF THE INTERNATIONAL CARE BOARD. The committee also considered a 4-color advertisement to appear in the October issue of KIWANIS magazine, which will feature gift items for the Christmas season. The Committee wishes to comment on the excellent condition and appearance of the General Office building.
The committee reviewed some of the recent page publications produced by the department in addition to KIWANIS magazine. REPORT FROM THE BOARD'S COMMITTEE ON PUBLIC RELATIONS TO THE MEETING OF THE INTERNATIONAL BOARD. The committee then considered the idea of recognizing youth who have demonstrated an understanding of the Safeguard Against Crime program.
This idea was originally developed as a support for the SAC program. the CAQ idea has been advanced as has been the idea to recognize community relations law enforcement officers. The Committee then reviewed the Connelly Medal nominations received since the last Board meeting. The Committee recommends that Richard A. Misch be authorized to countersign on operational controls at the General Office.
The committee believes that with the expected increases in supply sales, after considering the reduction in Life Member and Charter fees, there will be sufficient funds to take care of this E.D.P. The committee will make specific recommendations regarding this financial statement at our next board meeting, and at that time we also plan to make recommendations regarding any budget adjustments.
One year ago the Board of Trustees approved three recommendations of the Board Committee on Finance which, (a) an E.D.P. Task Force, (b) funds for professional assistance to develop a changed format on departmental expenditure allocations, and (c) funds for professional assistance to initiate changes in the format of our financial statements. The main focus in these recommendations was an analysis of our requirement to update our computer hardware as we neared a maximum processing capacity.
Attached is a copy of the "Memorandum for Registration", which was the basis of the information from which this decision was made. Immediate approval by this Board of Trustees would still mean a delay of approximately March 1, 1978 before the hardware could be deployed and operational. Therefore, I would suggest to speed up the turnaround time frame, that we consider unspent approved funds for these projects to be included as part of our "program support" requests in order to purchase additional programmer time.
I have attached herewith a copy of Seidman and Seidman's report dated September 9, 1976, with important suggestions they made and underlined. These recommendations should be highlighted and implemented as much as possible when transitioning our hardware. Additional input should also come from each board committee and department of the General Office, in the format suggested by the Treasurer, Mark A.
Consistent with our June telephone conversation, I have attached a copy of the Memorandum for Record regarding our evaluation of the computer hardware alternatives facing Kiwanis International.
