Hey Kiwanis….THANKS!

Committee Assignments
The list of committee assignments was passed around at this week’s
meeting and it will be again next week. If you were on a committee this year,
you can either stay on that committee, or remove yourself from it. You can
also add your assistance to a different committee this year. The committee
members and chairpersons need to be finalized before the Installation and the
start of the next Kiwanis year.
So moved…
