Sub-Region F Event

Sub-Region F is the only sub-region in Circle K International that has established an annual sub-region event. Last year, the sub-region event was held in the Capital District. This year, our sub-region event is being held in our very own district, and my school (NYU) is hosting it!

According to International Representative Eric Hotchkiss, there are 21 Circle Kers registered to attend the event this weekend. We will be participating in various fellowship activities, taking part in a number of service projects, and participating in the March of Dimes March for Babies.

Tip Me: 5 ways to support March of Dimes

Every few weeks, a new "Tip Me" is released on the Circle K International website. The most recent "Tip Me", released on April 8th, is a list of five ways that you can support March of Dimes, one of Circle K International's four Service Partners:

1. Visit your local neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) and bring flowers to the nurses to recognize the work they do.
2. Contact your senators and stress the importance of the Children’s Health Insurance Program Reauthorization Act (CHIPRA). Check out the advocacy section on the March of Dimes website for more initiatives and information.
3. Form a March for Babies team with your CKI club and recruit volunteers.
4. Sell bean bags for babies. The profits from Calplush and Plushland, specially-made college-themed or holiday-themed bean bag bears, are used to fund the research and mission of the March of Dimes.
5. Challenge your CKI club to raise enough money to equal the number of members who were born prematurely or who have birth defects. For example: four members born premature=US$400.
