Welcome Kiwanas Dead


I feel like an idiot for asking but can someone explain this joke to me? Many thanks.

Kiwanis is a club. Like Lions Club, Rotary Club, Shriners, Elks Lodge, etc. They are service clubs that do charity work. They frequently have conventions and when you are at a hotel it is common to see signs that say, "Welcome Kiwanis". The joke is that even in death these clubs are having there own private convention.

I thought it was something like that. I'm familiar with the club but wasn't aware they had a lot of conventions at hotels and thought maybe this was something more common 20+ years ago. I travel a lot for work and haven't ever seen one. Anyway, I've thoroughly killed the joke now.
