These past several months have given great rise to establishing or reestablishing Circle K at college campuses across Georgia. What promising new developments have there been? Well, we are proud to say we have one newly reactivated club hailing from the Mountains Division and sponsored by the Rome Kiwanis club – Berry College! Welcome to this fantastic club! Another school currently in the workings is Ogeechee Technical College, hoping to charter before the end of the CKI year with the help of sponsoring Statesboro Kiwanis club. They are currently holding meetings, electing officers, and finishing up the last bit of paperwork before officially becoming a newly chartered club. With only a delay in paperwork, Atlanta University Center (AUC) is well on their way to reactivating their club. They’ve been to several district events, including Fall SST and FMR, also worked with local CKI and Kiwanis clubs in several different service projects and socials. This club is incredibly active and well on their way to being labeled as such very soon. The University of Georgia is just on the horizon! Lt. Governor Christine Mayfield has been tirelessly working with this club on their reactivation paperwork. They have some officers, some members, and an advisor, but they are still putting on the final touches! With such an amazing sponsoring Kiwanis club, we look forward to seeing this club established before the end of the CKI year as well. Emory University sponsored by Covington Kiwanis is being reestablished after a few years of inactivity. With Oxford at Emory doing so well and the full support of their enthusiastic Kiwanis club, this Circle K club is sure to be up in no time! Some of you have been a part of this process, so I’d like to thank you for supporting the formation of these clubs. Also, I’d like to give a special thank you to the sponsoring Kiwanis clubs of our active and forming clubs. Your guidance and support is always needed and appreciated. Please continue to work with these clubs and countless others in the district to continue our chain of success! Brittany Horton

Club Dues! December 1, 2014

Interested in working with our District Projects? The projects are Project HEALTHY, HOME, and the Georgia Sheriffs’ Youth Homes. Project HEALTHY stands for Health and Exercise Always Lead To Happier Youth. While at home, you can help out with local charity events that benefit children. HOME stands for Helping Others, Motivate Everyone. Any project that involves helping with homelessness or hunger could be counted toward this project. You could volunteer at a soup kitchen or you could volunteer to deliver Christmas meals to people in need. The Georgia Sheriffs’ Youth Home are youth homes that are sponsored by the Georgia Sheriffs’ Association. If you have any questions about the projects or ways to do service with them, please contact District Service Chair Victoria Byrd at service@georgiacirclek.org or myself at secretary@georgiacirclek.org.  Elizabeth Ludlow
