What is Key Leader?

Key Leader is a weekend experiential leadership program for today's young leaders. This life-changing event focuses on service leadership as the first, most meaningful leadership-development experience. A Key Leader will learn the most important lesson of leadership—it comes from helping others succeed.

Participants begin by attending a Key Leader conference, which is a weekend retreat. Large and small group workshops, discussions and team-building activities take place over the course of the weekend. Students have opportunities to learn leadership skills that will help them to change their schools, communities, and world for the better. While exploring leadership in a whole new way, participants will make amazing new friends and have experiences they will never forget. Positive, ongoing interaction with other Key Leader graduates offers continuing reinforcement, encouragement and growth of leadership skills.

Key Leader 2022 Recap

​
Key Leader 2022 was a massive success! Lead speaker Scott Johnson taught over 60 students about what it takes to be a Key Leader. From there, he taught various subjects such as servant leadership, integrity, growth, and values! Additionally, students interacted with each other to not only sharpen their leadership skills but also to form meaningful friendships! Thank you all the adults and staff at Kiwanis and Camp Tecumseh who helped prepare for the wonderful event!
