Circle K
What is Circle K about? Founded in 1953, Cal Poly Circle K International is the collegiate service branch of Kiwanis which aims to foster service, leadership, and fellowship in our community. Cal Poly CKI is dedicated to numerous community service projects ranging from beach cleanups to serving meals at Prado Day Center, as well as some notable long-term projects such as Service Marathon, The Book Bag Project, Winter Fantasy Ball, and Key to College. MEETINGS
When and where are general meetings? Meetings for Winter 2019 are Wednesday evenings at 5PM in Building 13, Room 110. They generally end around 5:45PM. Am I required to attend all meetings to be a member? You are not required to attend all meetings, however, it is a good way to get to know other Circle K members, hear about upcoming events, and learn more about CKI! You can definitely still be an active member by just participating in service events and promoting fundraisers with us. MEMBERSHIP
What are the benefits of membership? Being a member benefits you through recorded service hours, attendance at District and Division events, scholarships, a Circle K pin, a membership card, and more! Do I have to be a paid member to go to events? If you haven't paid dues, you can still go to volunteer events to check out Circle K. It's a great way to meet people and build lasting relationships, but there are some events that are only available for paid members including District Convention, Fall Training Conference, District Large Scale Service Project, Spring Training Conference, and CKIx. How much is membership? If you would like to become a member of Circle K, please Venmo us (@calpolycki) $24 or bring cash to one of our general meetings and complete a membership form. Are shirts included with membership dues? Unfortunately the price of shirts is not included in the membership dues this year. They are a separate price of $12. DUES
How much are dues and where does the money go? Dues are $24 per year. $10/member is set aside for the district, and the rest is split between International club fees ($600/year) and our club's administrative fund. How can I pay? Venmo @calpolycki, cash, or check made out to Cal Poly Circle K. Do dues need to be renewed? Dues are collected annually. The majority of members turn them in during fall quarter, but we collect them year round. EVENTS
How do I sign up to attend events? Go to our Event Signup page. Once you're there, find the event you want to sign up for and click the tab at the bottom of the document, and it will bring you to the sign up sheet for that event. Fill out the form, and double check that there are no additional requirements. We also have all of our club-hosted events on Facebook if there are any event updates! What if I need a ride? Rides are provided for all events. Those who sign up online will have a spot saved for them. HOURS
Will my hours be recorded? Your hours will be recorded for events that you have attended if you are a dues paid member. If not, your hours will be recorded for the first month you are a part of the club. How can I find out how many hours I have? By the fifth day of every month, the secretary will have finished compiling all member hours for the previous month. Please contact our Secretary to request to see yours. Are there hour requirements? We don't have a minimum hour requirement to be a member, but there's no reason not to challenge yourself! WEBSITE
