Fall Retreat 2007 Wrap Up!
Circle K Members throughout the Texas-Oklahoma District were brought together for a weekend of incredible activities of leadership building, inclusiveness, and an opportunity to meet others within the district. October 26th – 28th was marked for this event at Camp Honey Creek.
Many Circle K members were given the opportunity to participate in activities from archery, to swimming, to hiking. Other activities were in teams either building a float, given a theme, and having a great time using their creativity and a few raw materials. The last part of the event included a bon fire at night and members enjoying a time of relaxation eating “smores” and telling spooky stories.
I encourage everybody to come again next year and bring your friends for a weekend of entertainment. Our district focuses on the ability of bringing our chapters together and the service we perform for our communities while developing leadership qualities in all the members.
ICON 2007 Wrap Up!
This year the 52nd Annual Circle K International Convention was one for the record books. The Texas- Oklahoma District had thirteen members attend the five day convention. We got to see the sights and sounds of Portland, Oregon by riding the transit system, walking around downtown, and shopping at cute corner stores. An amazing part of the trip was the Gorge outing that we got to experience. It was full of beautiful waterfalls and amazing scenery. ICON was a wonderful time to bond with other members of CKI from all over the country. We made friends with people we would never have had the opportunity to meet. But besides all of that, of course we had the House of Delegates. This year TO formed a strong voice in the House of Delegates and spoke up for the future of our own district, as well as the future of others that are just starting to grow to reach their potential. We proved that you can make a difference by showing up and making your voice heard. The Circle K ICON this year was an amazing experience that everyone will cherish for years to come.

Hello T-O!!
As we have reached the half way point of the CKI year, a lot has changed from what we expected back in April. I am very excited to have the opportunity to serve as your Governor for the remainder of the year. I know that our district is going to continue to grow strong and together through all of the inter clubs and service that we do. The board has been working hard to keep the excitement alive for our district and we are thrilled with the many events coming up in the future. I encourage all chapters to send me information about projects they are doing so I can try to visit as many chapters as possible. I cannot wait to see everyone at District Convention in San Antonio March 7th to the 9th. It will be a wonderful party to celebrate another amazing year in our district. Let’s continue to grow and bond as a district and RSVP to District Convention to spread our friendships!
Live to Serve, Love to Serve!

Greetings Texas-Oklahoma CKI,
It is an honor for me to have been elected by the delegates of Sub-Region D in Portland to serve as one of the first ever International Representatives. In addition to serving as your representative, I also serve as Chairman of the International Board Service Committee. I hail from the Louisiana-Mississippi-West Tennessee District being born and raised in Memphis, TN then moved to Kenner, LA and currently live in Baton Rouge, LA. I attend Louisiana State University where I am a dual major in Political Science and International Studies. I am here to serve YOU as your representative to the International Board and as a resource for your district. I am here for you to bounce ideas off of or just to vent frustrations you may be having in Circle K life or just life in general. I have been in the Kiwanis Family for about 5 years. I have served as a club president, district committee chair, lieutenant governor, district secretary-treasurer, and International Trustee so I know the things we go through in Circle K everyday and in college life. I am here to help you accomplish your goals and make it easier for you to succeed because in CKI-- that is what we do! I can not express the excitement I have to be able to work with such diverse groups of people from around the world. I look forward to working with all of you this year and presenting your interest and views on the international level.
In CKI Spirit,
Ralph Johnson
International Representative, Sub-Region D
Circle K International
