Saturday, June 4, was an unforgettable day when I visited Santo Domingo in the Dominican Republic for the charter of the new Kiwanis Club of Santo Domingo. Eighty new clubs were organized during this Kiwanis year in areas outside the North American Districts. Due to the change in the deletion factor, eleven districts lost membership in the first six months.
Considering all the facts, we are entering the most critical period of growth in this administrative year.

Recommendation #L It is recommended that the Board of Directors reconsider its action pursuant to Recommendations #3 and #4 in the minutes of the April 30 - May 4 Board meeting regarding the award of a Robert P. REPORT: FROM THE SPECIAL BOARD COMMITTEE " ON INSURANCE FOR THE MEETING OF THE TNTE'RNATIONAL COUNCIL OF T.RUSTEES The committee reviewed progress to date in obtaining proposals for renewal of the comprehensive general liability insurance program for Kiwanis International and its sponsored clubs and administrative units.
The committee believes that the fee allocated among the clubs for the administrative year 1977 should be based on the maximum projected cost with that portion of the amount collected but unpaid as an initial deposit held in a separate account until the final results are known. I move the adoption of Recommendation #2 and its referral to the Board's Committee on Law and Policy for inclusion in policy if any of the proposed amendments are adopted. Finally, regarding other aspects of the survey we believe that further study is merited by the relevant Board Committees.
The excess of revenue over expenses of $226,260 is as previously estimated for this time of year. However, from the month of June we will have heavy spending months, especially because of the convention, and the pendulum will swing the other way. As you can see, the format specifically highlights and addresses budgets and variances for the month and year to date as of the date of the overview.
You may recall that we suggested limiting the promotion to avoid confusion with Kiwanis International's Life Member Status Program. The committee confirms that the formula for determining the Kiwanis International Foundation's share of General Office overhead costs for the 1977-1978 administrative year will be the same as the formula for the current year and that a method of increasing it annually this is how it should be worked out. that would be the full share.

Tuchibit #11 REPORT OF THE 1st TI-FE KIWANIS FOUNDATION BOARD MEETING The Kiwanis International Foundation Board of Directors met on Sunday, June 26, 1977 at the Dallas Hilton Hotel. All other areas are progressing well, with the exception of the Life Fellow Award program. With the Kiwanis Board pension, the foundation will once again promote the Life Fellow Award program.
In addition, the name of the program is being changed to the "Foundation Life Fellow Award" program in the hope that the addition of the word "Foundation" will further help alleviate problems of confusion with Kiwanis' Life Member status program. It is also agreed that the Foundation will be fully reimbursed if the sale of the materials pays all production costs, and that any profit will be shared between the Foundation and Kiwa.r7.is International. Published in cooperation with the World Scout Org8.!1ization, a copy of the publication has been sent to all Kiwanis leaders in Spanish-speaking countries.

In keeping with these guidelines, President-elect Gladman has indicated that his assignments will reflect two priorities: first, an assignment to a district the board member has not previously visited, and second, an assignment to a nearby district. .ty to the board member's home district.
It is the judgment of the committee that the main components of any Kiwa.nis International Convention should reflect education and inspiration. The committee recommends that, with specific reference to the Monday evening program of the Dallas Convention, future convention programs reflect education and inspiration in all major components. Extending Kiwanis International Foundation Efforts Outside the United States Considerable opposition has been expressed to any effort to promote contributions to the Foundation from clubs outside the United States, and we have been assured by Past President Davis that there are no present plans to solicit Foundation contributions from outside the clubs.
Past President Wes Bartlet briefed the committee on the experience of the Nebraska-Iowa district spring convention and indicated that the board had given the district permission to hold one more spring convention before a final evaluation was made. On behalf of the committee, the Chair expresses appreciation to the Board for all the arrangements made for them in Dallas and to President Stan and President-elect Maury for their appearances and generous contributions to the committee's deliberations at its meeting.
