Circle K is a service organisation for students at the tertiary level. There is no age limit for persons willing to join. The club was chartered in 1999 by former students of the College. Since then, the club has been growing continuously. The Kiwanis Club of Barbados Central sponsors it.

There are more than 200 Circle K clubs all over the world, in countries like Canada, the United States of America and the Caribbean.

These clubs are divided into Districts, which are further sub-divided into divisions to facilitate better communication. The Barbados Community College’s Circle K club is part of the Paradise Division in the Eastern Canada & the Caribbean (E.C.&C.) District. Other member countries of the E.C.&C. District are Jamaica, St. Lucia,
Trinidad & Tobago, the Bahamas, Canada and Antigua.

Two conventions are held every year, District and International for the purpose of electing new officers for posts, amending by-laws and any other Circle K business of that nature. District Conventions are held in March, in one of the member countries of your district. International Conventions are held in the United States of America during the month of August. The Barbados Community College’s Circle K is always strongly represented at these conventions.
