Twenty leaders of six local Kiwanis clubs assembled in Carrollton at the Neva Lomason Memorial Library on Saturday morning of June 10, 2023. The world of Kiwanis International is divided into forty-nine Districts, of which the State of Georgia is one District. The Georgia District is divided into eighteen divisions, and the Carrollton Kiwanis Club and most others in attendance are members of the twelfth Division. Brent Leslie, current Kiwanis Georgia Governor-Elect, has assigned the class of Lieutenant Governors Elect - the responsibility of organizing training sessions during the months of June and July - spread around the entire State, with the goal of making the training available to all Kiwanis leaders prior to taking office on October 1.
David Simmons, current Georgia Kiwanis Vice-Governor, (third in officer rotation) , visited from Cordele and conducted the training. Attending this training helps position officers and clubs in attendance for qualifying for the coveted distinguished status.
The attendees enjoyed a lunch sponsored by Shane Davis of Best Bonding of Carroll County, Terry Langley of The Carroll County Sheriff's Office, and Jim Carter, of Sit'n Sleep, in Carrollton.
