Introduces guests
with a FLARE !!!
July 23, 2021
Our program presenter and sister of Johnny Tanner, Sally Macaulay and an array of interesting guests made for an exciting, informative meeting. Alison Tanner, wife of Johnny Tanner and the woman who made him into the outstanding, manly man he is, joined us to hear Sally's presentation on the Marietta Chalkoberfest. Marietta Kiwanian, Andy Gaines, was present to hear Sally, his fellow Marietta Kiwanian, present the program.
Brightening up the meeting was Katie Macaulay, oldest daughter of Hugh and Sally Macaulay. Katie works in insurance sales for the Farmers' Insurance Company. Most likely Katie is the inspiration for the Farmers' TV ad that announces: {"We know a thing or two because we've seen a thing or two." Come back to see us, Kalie!
Our own Tim Chapman, Superintendent of the Carrollton Center for the Arts, distributed a brochure reminding us all we have a fantastic arts center right here in town.Other local dignitaries joined us: Peter Debick, Carroll County Geographic Information Systems Manager and Planner; April Saunders, Marketing and Communications Director for the City of Carrollton; and Erica Studdard (AKA "Blue Eyes"), Carrollton Community Development Director.

A graduate of Bremen High School, the Citadel, and Atlanta's John Marshall Law School, Representative Smith informed us he considers one of his greatest accomplishments being invited to be part of Jack's pool shooting team.

Greetings, and welcome to our Carrollton Kiwanis Club! We have been serving the Carrollton and West Georgia region through service to children of the community since 1947. We were chartered with sponsorship from the Newnan Kiwanis Club, and have donated thousands of dollars and volunteer hours to our community over the decades. We host sponsored projects in an effort to return our proceeds back to efforts that help children live, develop, and grow in a safe and nurturing community. Please join us at one of our weekly Friday Zoom or lunch meetings to hear about new and noteworthy things affecting our community, and how you can join us in helping the youth of our community.
