Frequently Asked Questions

International Convention is like our District Convention, but obviously on an International scale. You will get a chance to meet college students from all over the world, while attending workshops, making important decisions at the House of Delegates, developing your leadership skills, and exploring St. Louis!
Q: What will this cost me?
Registration for ICON is $395. You will also need to figure in some money for transportation costs, spending money (souvenirs, money for the CKI store, sight seeing costs), and some money for food.
Q: What is included in my $395 registration cost?
- International convention registration
- Four nights of housing in a Washington University in St. Louis residence hall
- $40 to purchase meals or gifts on campus

- Convention sessions and workshops
- Block party
- Speaker Ethan Zohn
- Service Fair
- House of Delegates

Q: How will I get to ICON?
A: Because St. Louis is within driving distance of our district, we are planning on a carpooling/caravan option for traveling to St. Louis. Final details will be worked out for this once we know how many people will be attending and where they are from, but plan on this as a definite (and less expensive option) to your travel arrangements. You also have the option of flying and there is easy access to the convention site (Washington University in St. Louis) from the airport.
Q: How do I register?
A: Simply send Kacy an email (khaatved@css.edu) before May 15, letting her know that you will be attending. This is so we can assign roommates. When she emails you back with your convention roommates (4 to a room) then you can register here: https://www.kiwanisone.org/MemberResources/Convention/Circlek/CKI_ConvReg2010.aspx
You are responsible for registering on your own, but don't hesitate to contact Kacy if you have any questions!
