Reminder:   "Mind your P's and Q's"
Representing Kiwanis International
 
Everyone, as we continue to meet virtually and in person, please be mindful of the words we say aloud and how we speak to others. Everything we say is broadcast more than before. Speaking positively and respectfully to one another helps to show others that our club is a place that all are welcome to be.

Guests October 30, 2020

 

We welcomed an interclub from the Newnan Kiwanis Club in, of course, the great city of Newnan.  Joining us to hear an informative program by Georgia State Trooper Jay Trawick were long-time friends C.R. Phillips and Mike Barber.  C.R. is Lieutenant Governor of Division 3 and a Past President of the Newnan Club.  A U.S. Navy veteran and Master Gardener, he's a proud, successful graduate of Purdue University.  Mike, the velvet-voiced and silver-tongued chairman who announced the Newnan Football games for a quarter-century, was a Lieutenant Governor in 2000 and has maintained a record of perfect attendance for 35 years.

Gift Cards - Food Insecurity
Please don't forget to consider donating to our Food Gift Card Drive. We purchase small denomination food gift cards to local restaurants, and give them to local high school counselors, who distribute them to needy students to help feed them during Christmas break. Every dollar helps, and we can even place it on your quarterly bill.
