Submitting Club Monthly Reports
Each month, it is your responsibility to report your Club’s activities to the District. While this may seem like a pointless thing to do and that the District wants to be nosy in your Club’s business, the monthly reports serve many useful purposes. First, they serve as a record of your Club’s activity. This will allow you to have a record at the end of the year of what your Club has accomplished. Next, the reports allow the District to evaluate in your Club’s activities. This is not to say that the District will be involved in all of your Club’s activities, but if your Club is struggling, then the reports will alert the District to your problems and steps can be taken to help your Club overcome any challenges. Another thing that the reports accomplish is your Club’s status for some District awards. Some awards are based on what you reported to the District. The final thing that the reports allow is for the information to be passed along to different levels in Circle K International. Each month, the District has to submit a monthly report to the International Office that reposts things such as service hours and membership numbers.
So now you may be wondering how you can actually submit these reports. All you have to do is go to the District website (alabamacki.org) and look at the top menu bar. There you will find a section called “Club Monthly Reports”. All you have to do is follow the questions and then click submit.
