Are there other Officer Training sessions available?
Yes—please see our district calendar for dates. Always remember to sign in so you and your club receive credit.
What is the Magnificent Seven award?
The Magnificent Seven award is presented to clubs in which all 7 officers receive training in both rounds within a program year. Clubs achieving this award demonstrate leadership, high standards, communication, and teamwork. These are precisely the qualities that lead to outstanding clubs.
Magnificent Seven Awards will be distributed at the District Conference.
What’s for lunch?
An optional lunch is available for $10 (pay at the door). We will offer a Taco Bar buffet with vegetarian options (vegan available upon request).
