REPORT OF BOA..1ID COMMITTEE ON ~FEMBERSKAP GROWTa & EDUCATIO~. AFTER THE MEETING OF THE INTERNATIONAL COUNCIL OF TRVSTEES September 29 - October 2, 1976. The Council Committee considered the request of the Kiwanis Club of Lancaster, Pennsylvania (Exhibit #5) regarding their proposal for the transfer of membership. I would like to thank all members of the Committee, Staff and others who assisted in the development of this report.
It is the consensus of the committee that no action should be taken regarding any change in dues or other requirements relating to a Kiwanis Golden K club. The committee requested that the Field Department develop revised guidelines regarding the formation of Kiwanis Golden K clubs and to send a copy of these revised guidelines to each board member for review and comment. The committee proposes that appropriate staff make recommendations for the next Council meeting and designate departments that would share responsibility for follow-up once the meeting.
The Commission has reviewed the current policy regarding the granting of the club's charter and believes that the charter should be presented by the governor and a strong emphasis should be placed on its importance. The Committee recommends that the question of who should represent the Governor in his absence at the presentation of the official document be referred to the Committee on Administration and Structure.
