Club Fundraising

                Our main sources of fund-raising is our food concessions.  We have become famous for our butterfly porkchop and ribeye sandwiches sold at local festivals and home high school football games.  Other fund-raising includes advertising on pocket  school athletic schedules and working with the Tri-Sharks Triathlon at Moraine View State Park .  

            We are a small club, which does big work for our community.  Our success is dependent on members who are engaged in club activities.  People like you, who have a genuine interest in community service.  

            Please consider getting involved in this great organization.  The service can be extremely rewarding and the fellowship can be very fulfilling.

Kiwanis is  not all about work.  We have a great deal of fun when we are together.  The club meets the 2nd and 4th Mondays of each month at 6:00pm at the Walnut Street Deli.   Membership is open to both men and women by invitation.  

            We are looking for members with an interest in serving their community with like minded people.  If you would be interested in learning more about our club and membership.
