ICON Recap

 

International Convention 2025 Recap

The 2025 Carolinas District Tour and Key Club International Convention (ICON) was a memorable experience full of adventure, service, leadership, and global connection. From theme park thrills to impactful service and powerful workshops, the week embodied the spirit of Key Club.

The tour began at Universal Orlando Resort, where attendees explored Universal Studios Florida and Islands of Adventure. From high-speed rides to immersive movie worlds like Harry Potter, the parks delivered nonstop fun.

After Universal, members headed into ICON 2025, where Key Clubbers from around the world came together for leadership training, service, and inspiration. Hands-on workshops helped members grow as leaders and gain tools to strengthen their clubs. The House of Delegates session was also an amazing opportunity to vote on amendments and elect the 2025 - 2026 International Board.

A major highlight was this year’s service project: assembling birthday kits for children in need. Each kit included cake mix, frosting, decorations, and more—ensuring every child could celebrate their special day with joy and dignity.

During the convention, the Carolinas District even got to attend a Cirque du Soleil performance, blending acrobatics, storytelling, and artistry in a breathtaking show called “Drawn to Life.”

ICON’s speaker lineup brought energy and inspiration:

  • Vera Jo “VJ” Bustos, a former Key Clubber and pro coach, shared lessons on mental toughness and leadership.

  • Emily Tosta, actress and Thirst Project advocate, spoke about the global water crisis and youth-led impact.

  • Aria Mia Loberti, star of All the Light We Cannot See and UNICEF Ambassador, encouraged members to embrace advocacy and inclusion.

The week wrapped up with a visit to Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World, where members enjoyed classic attractions and ended the experience with the iconic fireworks show—a magical close to an extraordinary trip.

From beginning to end, the 2025 Carolinas District Tour and ICON inspired Key Clubbers to lead, serve, and stay connected to a global movement making real change.
