Each Key Club is led by a student board. The club president, club secretary, and club treasurer comprise the board. In most cases, you may have other positions available such as vice-president, editor, webmaster, class director and committee chair. If you are interested in running for a club position in your Key Club, talk to your current club president, faculty advisor or Kiwanis advisor.
