The Kiwanis Club
.......... of Kennewick
The Pres Speaks
Dear Fellow Kiwanians,
The Fair is over and was a big success for our club. We had members volunteer to step in and cover for those who could not make their scheduled shifts. It pleases me how the club members help and support each other. I think that's who we are and what makes others want to be club members.
September is the last month of my year as club president. We have planned a number of fun and exciting events for the month. On Tuesday, September 14th, our program will honor our last year's new members. It will be an audience participation meeting with lots of prizes given away. Mark your calendar and plan to join the fun.
The owners of Leo's Catering will be on vacation Sept 21st and 28th. We will meet at Camp Kiwanis on the 21st and will have a hot meal served for $12.00. On the 28th we will meet at Clover Island Inn with a salad only for $8.00 and a hot meal for $10.00.
On September 30th, we will end the year with an Installation Dinner and Program at the Canyon Lakes Champion Room. Pat Johnstone Jones and Maureen Bell and their committee are planning for this event. The facility is in a beautiful location with great food, so plan to attend. Spouses, friends, and prospective members are invited. Dinner will be $25.00 per person. Tickets will be available starting at the September 7th meeting. It is a time to thank our retiring officers, welcome our new officers, and recognize some of our members.
Our Kiwanis year runs from October 1 to September 30th. Treasurer, Laurie Tufford will have next year renewal forms ready this month. I hope you have had a fun, event filled Kiwanis year and we look forward to your participation next year.
President Wayne
