Annual Achievement Report Form
What? The Annual Achievement Report Form is a form that each club MUST fill out prior to this year’s District Convention (April 5th7th). This form highlights all club achievements and covers areas such as membership, service projects and overall performance.
Why? Failure to submit this form on time disqualifies a club from all District Convention awards and scholarships. The form helps clubs determine their own strengths and weaknesses and is required by Key Club International as a way of assessing clubs.
How? Simply fill out the form electronically or manually by District Convention on April 5th-7th and then submit it to me!

How can you get one?
The New Jersey District Board is selling advocacy braceletes to raise money for the ELIMINATE Project! The braceletes will be the same size and same lettering as a typical "Livestrong" bracelet and will feature the saying "BElieve in YOUrself".
Contact your club President. Bracelets are still in the process of being delivered to some clubs.
ELIMINATE Hands! Advocacy Bracelets Sell ELIMINATE hands for $1 apiece to your Key Club, school and community. The ELIMINATE hands were emailed to all of you and can be printed out and then sold. All proceeds benefit the ELIMINATE project.
