Membership and KADIMA VP COUNTERPART PACKET 2015-2016 mEMBERSHIP AND KADIMA VP COUNTERPART PACKET 2015-2016 YOU ARE A MEM/KAD KING/QUEEN!!

You are about to embark on the craziest and most amazing ride of your life!! This year is going to be AMAZING and I cannot wait to work with each of you to bring HaNegev’s membership and Kadima to even greater heights! Although your job is definitely a tough one – NO WORRIES! I am here to help every step of the way and you should be super excited to be upholding such an awesome position! Being a Mem/Kad is all about welcoming new members, making sure old ones stay, including EVERYONE, and giving Kadimaniks the best year ever! The best part about our job (besides getting to hang out with both middle AND high- schoolers) is that it’s all about having fun!! There is no better way to get people to see how fun USY is than by showing them. You get to be wacky, LOUD, crazy, silly, and most importantly…yourself! You love USY and Kadima, so your job is spreading that love to everyone! We all know that HaNegev is the best damn region in the U.S.A., but this is all because of hard work and dedication. I know that you will work your hardest and dedicate yourself to helping your chapter’s membership and Kadima grow! This packet’s sole purpose is to help YOU. It includes fun and useful tips, retention and recruitment ideas, programming suggestions, advice, and so much more! Dive on in and use this WHENEVER YOU NEED TO! In addition to all of the membership aspects this packet holds, please do not forget about our pride and joy, Kadima! They are the future of USY and deserve just as much love and attention as any USYer! J While this packet is an awesome resource for you to refer to when you’re lost…do NOT hesitate to call, text, or facebook message me with any questions you have or advice you need! I am always available to lend you a helping hand with Mem/Kad stuff…but I am also here if you ever need a friend to talk to! I cannot even begin to tell you how excited I am for the upcoming year…especially to see what each of you accomplishes!! You are all superstars and I know that you are going to be an AMAZING Mem/Kad!!! Never forget that I BELIEVE IN YOU and you should believe in yourself too! It’s going to be the most rockin’ year HaNegev has ever seen so let the creative juices start to flow and get ready to be the best Mem/Kad ever! Thank you in advance for everything you do this year – it means more to me than you will ever know. Changing The World One Smile At A Time, Sami Ronik HaNegev Regional Membership and Kadima VP 2015-2016 International USY Membership and Kadima International General Board 2015 MEM/KAD-ISMS You were just elected to be a Mem/Kad VP. Maybe you know what it’s all about, and maybe you have NO idea what you just got into. Here are the basic “Mem/Kad”isms that are MUST DO’s throughout the year if you plan on helping your chapter succeed! . Hi! My Name is Mem/Kad! At programs and events YOU are the one to meet new members, introduce them to other people, hang out with them and check up on them until they can make it on their own into the chapter. This may just seem like schmoozing...but its also in the job description. We Love Kadima! YOU are the liaison between Kadima and USY in your chapter. Plan Kadima events, become friends with the Kadima President, attend board meetings as an advisor, and recruit other USYers to staff Kadima events. Working with Kadima will ensure that they know all about USY, which means they will join the future! A-duh! . Phone Tree: Begin a chapter phone tree. Recruit the board or other members to make phone calls every week about programs. On your own time, look at past membership lists to see who did not rejoin the chapter. Call them and ask them why and try to persuade them to come back and try it out. Keep in touch with new members on facebook, by phone, or e-mail! Make sure the Kadima Board is either doing their own phone tree or offer to help them and find other USYers to help. Membership Reports: Help your youth director fill out and send in the membership reports. At the end of each month, fill out your Membership Update and send it in to the Regional Mem/Kad. If the Regional Mem/Kad doesn’t know what’s going on, there’s no way to help OR congratulate you! Peace & increase, baby. Recruitment: You and your recruiting team (chapter board) must always be on the look out for new members, whether it be at shul, Hebrew School, or normal school! If you don’t recruit, there is NO WAY for your chapter to grow! Use your top-notch charm! ***REMEMBER*** You are never alone! I am always here to help, as is the Regional Youth Director, your chapter Youth Director, your entire chapter board, and other members of your chapter! Don’t allow the pressure of membership and Kadima bring you down. If you feel you need even more assistance, recruit some members for a Chapter General Board and spread out your duties. INTERUPTING THIS PACKET FOR AN IMPORTANT NEWS REPORT: THIS JUST IN! EVERY SINGLE USYER HAS A FACEBOOK! KEEP IN TOUCH WITH YOUR USYERS BY CREATING A FACEBOOK GROUP FOR THE CHAPTER. ADD EVENTS, PICTURES, AND INVITE ALL MEMBERS! IN ADDITION, PLEASE INVITE ALL YOUR CHAPTER MEMBERS TO THE HANEGEV USY FACEBOOK FAN PAGE!!! YOU MAY NOW RETURN TO YOUR PACKET. 1 2 3 4 5! LET ME SEE YOUR CHAPTER PRIDE!!! There’s nothing like a little CHAPTA PRIDE to keep your members excited, enthused, and IN LOVE with your chapter. Don’t hesitate to do ANYTHING to make your chapter stand out, and feel free to make the rest of the region watch in envy. • Create a short chapter cheer to sing at programs to get everyone excited and to make your presence known at conventions! • Pick a Mascot, buy the stuffed version, and love your mascot! This mascot should be implemented everywhere possible, it should become the face of your chapter, and shortly after that, the USYers in your chapter will think of USY every time they see your mascot. (i.e. if they’re at home watching the “Discovery Channel” and there’s a segment on bees, the USYer will be compelled to subconsciously think about the upcoming chapter program. Works every time!) • Paint a chapter banner or flag to bring to regional events! Invite all members to help paint it…DID SOMEBODY SAY CHAPTER BONDING?!?!?!? • Have a program all about the history of your chapter (i.e. “The life and times of St. Pete USY” Day)! • Attempt to win awards dealing with T.O., membership, and programs in order to SHOW how amazing your chapter is and bond in your shared want for success! • Enthusiastically encourage attendance at conventions (bribery works!!) When you have a larger amount of kids, major amounts of chapter pride result, and thus arises more love for USY from the USYers. • Set a goal at the beginning of the year to WIN a regional or sub regional competition and make sure EVERYONE in your chapter knows this goal! UNIQUE MIXERS TO HELP YOU LEARN NAMES!! . Play a childhood game and include having to say your name For example: You can play Marco Polo and instead of everyone screaming “Polo”, have everyone say his or her own name. Another example could be playing Jenga or Twister and every time you move you have to say something about yourself. The first time it would be your name, then your favorite color, then if you have any siblings, and so on. Organize people by height, grade, birthday, ABC order, and so on but make sure when making groups, you divide them. This will allow members to be surrounded by new people and really push them to make new friends. Play traditional USY mixers but incorporate saying your name The best thing about traditional mixers is that they get people out of their comfort zone and they really work! But, if you don’t want to go around the room saying your “name, grade, and favorite kitchen utensil”, then incorporate that part into the mixer. For example: When playing Pterodactyl instead of saying pterodactyl and “rawr” how about saying the name of the person you want it to go to. That way you are all learning each others names anyway! Well as much as you can understand without being able to show your teeth! . Or make up your own mixer! The best way to make everyone feel equally comfortable is if it is the first time anyone is playing the mixer. So, get inspired! Look at popular books, movies, games, or even apps and put your own USY twist on it to make it your own program! Fighting for a cure: Senioritis We all know (and can’t stand) senioritis.

    I am thrilled to welcome you to Hillel International’s fi rst annual Global Assembly. I am excited for what the next days will bring, and grateful that you could join us to participate in this important convening. The decision to hold a professional gathering is not a new one—years ago, Hillel professionals would gather annually to meet one another and create the vision for the year ahead. When I started my tenure as President of Hillel International, I knew that we must bring back this type of convening. This year, we gather for the fi rst time as a truly global movement, and notably, the largest gathering of Hillel professionals in history. This Hillel International: Global Assembly gives us an opportunity to refl ect on how we have grown in the past year, to celebrate the great work that many of our colleagues have been doing on campus and in the community, to think critically and thoughtfully about our goals for the year ahead, and most importantly to learn from each other. While we are all together, I encourage you to meet with many of your peers and share the exciting activities that are taking place on campus. Informal and interpersonal education has proven to be a critical source of learning, and Hillel International: Global Assembly has included a number of peer-to-peer networking sessions for that very purpose. I cannot wait to begin our time together in Orlando, and I look forward to seeing many of you over the course of the next few days. B’shalom, Eric Fingerhut Hillel International: Global Assembly 1 THANKS Educational Workshops
