NATIONAL: Our National Conference is held in August in a different location (typically alternating between east, west and central) each year. Kin from across Canada attend. It is a great way to meet Kin from other provinces and it is a lot of fun. This is where the policies and procedures for the whole Association are ratified.
-
DISTRICT: Canada is divided into 8 Districts. We are District 4, which includes all of Alberta and the Northeast corner of B.C., as well as the Northwest Territories. Each District has a conference every year. District 4 typically holds its conference in May of each Kin year. Individual clubs in our District bid for the privilege of hosting District Conference.
-
ZONE: Each District is divided into Zones. For example: District 4, Zone 11 is comprised of clubs from Athabasca, Fort McMurray, Sherwood Park, Fort Saskatchewan, Lac La Biche, Slave Lake and St. Albert. Twice a year (in some zones) meetings are held to deal with the business of the Zone. They are called Fall and Spring Zone Meetings. The various club Presidents give reports as to what and how their clubs are doing, by-laws might be changed, public speaking takes place and Zone Awards are given. These are mini conferences hosted by a club in the Zone and usually have a theme that a social event revolves around.

FALL LEADERSHIP CONFERENCE: FLC is a personal development and fellowship weekend. FLC is held each fall for each of Kinsmen and Kinettes separately. It is usually held in October and is hosted by the club that wins the bid for it at District Conference.
