Board of Directors, 1956

 File — Box: 5, Folder: 9

Scope and Contents

From the Series:

This series covers the records of the Columbus Kiwanis Club from 1920 to 2014 with a few gaps. From 1920 through 1936 the Board met once a week, just after the weekly luncheon meeting of the members. During the years 1937-1938 they met twice a month. Beginning in 1940 they began to meet once a month. Special called meetings occurred from time to time, if needed. The Board appointed the members of both ad hoc and standing committees, approved budgets and proposed projects, and approved or disapproved membership applications, among other executive functions. Types of records generated by the BoD might include announcements of the monthly and called/special meetings, agendas and the minutes. There is some duplication between this series and Series 6 which included the Annual and Monthly Club Achievement Reports and other periodic reports required by the state and national level Kiwanis organization, including copies of the BoD monthly meetings minutes, summery membership information, summary financial reports, committee activities and other types of statistical and narrative information. [Processor’s note – even though some of these achievement reports and annual reports are dated after the period covered, they are filed at the end of period to which they apply. Thus if the annual report for 1949 was completed in January of 1950, it would be filed in the folder titled BoD-Reports and Resolutions, 1949.] The summery monthly reports of committee chairs, as well as club resolutions whether passed by the Board or in the weekly membership meetings, are filed in the separate folder after the minutes.
