California-Nevada-Hawaii District Key Club International - Rallies

Rallies

The CNH Fall Rally is a fundraiser and the largest gathering of Key Clubbers held during the district year. Because of the District's geographic size, two separate fall rallies are held each year in order to allow for greater ease of attendance. Fall Rally North (FRN), held in late October, is currently held in Northern California at the Six Flags Discovery Kingdom. Fall Rally South (FRS), held in mid-November, is held in Southern California at Six Flags Magic Mountain. Thousands of members gather at each of the two theme parks.Because of the shear number of Key Clubbers at Fall Rally South, the rally is divided into three sessions with divisions being assigned to specific rally times.

At both Fall Rallies, all District Board members (Executive officers, Appointed board members, Lt. Governors) are "auctioned" off to Divisions. The winning Division is then able to spend a designated period of time with the "purchased" officer. Funds and ticket sales for both events go toward Pediatric Trauma Prevention (PTP) and Pediatric Emergency Medicine (PEM)programs at the partner hospitals in Oakland, San Diego, Loma Linda, Madera, Honolulu and Reno. In 2009-2010, the Fall Rallies generated over $120,000 for PTP/PEM, more than double of the previous year.
