Clubs Profiles

KGRE would like to thank the Clubs who have already sent their Mini-Profiles. The Mini-Profiles, along with the list of KG Connection Clubs, are available on KGRE website for people to read. It has proven to be a great way of introducing Clubs to people and even encourages them to establish their own English Clubs. However we require Clubs to regularly inform us of any updated information especially about contact details and email address. Then KGRE can provide the latest information to other people. KGRE would also like to remind other Clubs who have not sent their Profiles to send their Mini-Profiles as soon as possible. This is important part of being a member of KG Connection Club network. KGRE is reviewing club membership status during July 2004
