This Week’s News

June 9, 2025

Attend the club officer training because:

  • You get to meet people from other clubs and learn from each other

  • You gain insight to help your club make meetings enjoyable and educational

  • You discover opportunities to develop new skills

Training also helps you understand your role and how it connects with other club leaders. Plus, it benefits your club—at least 4 officers attending District-sponsored training twice a year earns credit toward the Club Success Plan, and when all 7 officers attend, your club is eligible for District recognition!
