Florida Kiwanis has always been a leader in the education and support of our members and this year was no exception! Even while we have all been doing the COVID-shuffle, postponing, rescheduling, and moving meetings and events, we have remained committed to bringing our members the best educational opportunities and the most motivational experiences possible in these unprecedented times!
This year’s Virtual Conference (VCON) workshop schedule was packed full of education sessions and timely topics.
In addition to a make-up track for Club Leadership Education (CLE), we offered you 31, yes 31, educational sessions presented by experienced and knowledgeable, first-class presenters, from throughout the Florida District and Kiwanis International.
These are the recordings from that conference. Please feel free to view them at your leisure and share them with your club members. If the presenter provided a copy of their PowerPoint presentation or handouts, you will also find them in the corresponding file folder. You are free to download them for your use.

Friday, September 24th would be a good date to find out what Friday, is all about! Come as my guest! ❤️
We are saddened to announce the passing of Dr. Wil Blechman, a Past Governor of the Florida District and Past President of Kiwanis International.
A number of years ago, when the Florida District supported the candidacy of Past Governor Wil Blechman for International Trustee, we knew that we were offering a qualified and dedicated candidate for the office. But none of us knew that Dr. Wil would change the face and direction of Kiwanis forever. While he was the 1990-91 Kiwanis International President, Dr. Wil was the father of “Young Children: Priority One”. Wil and his wife, Rachel, pioneered new partnerships, new visions, and new dreams for Kiwanis. What originally began as a three-year program has grown into a permanent emphasis program of Kiwanis. Kiwanis has enjoyed tremendous International recognition and acclaim because of the focus of Young Children: Priority One. But more importantly, young children's lives have been positively changed around the globe.
There will be a celebration of life at a future date. ... See MoreSee Less
So sorry to hear this bad news.. I had the privilege of meeting a few years ago. May he rest in peace.
I had the honor of knowing him and visiting his booths at icon s. A great man!!! And saw him at state conventions as well. I hope his legacy continues!!!!
Soooo sad. What a positive impact he had on Kiwanis and on young children. He changed us all for the better. What a huge loss!
He a truly great and honorable man. I heard him speak at several Kiwanis conventions. He will be missed by Kiwanis and Florida.
What a great man. Dr. Wil did change the World through Kiwanis.....we will never forget that. Rest in Peace Dr. Wil. Carp & Kaye
My sincere condolences to our Kiwanis world 🌎 and specially to the Florida District . May his memory be everlasting Eternal 🙏🏾
So sad to hear, Dr. Wil truly made an impact on me the several times I've met him. Thoughts and prayers to his family. ❤️
