I know it says Key Club on this header – but the message is quite applicable. You are guaranteed to save at least one life and most likely more for $ 1.80. At the Southwest District Kiwanis District Convention – we need your help with cheering on our Kiwanians as they walk a while to save a Baby’ s Smile. They will be led by the Millennium High School Band. I look forward to seeing you at the Wigwam Resort in Litchfield, Arizona – July 26th and 27th, 2013.
I wish to take this time to thank all of you. Witnessing your efforts, your energy and your belief in the mission of Kiwanis“ Serving the Children of the World,” provided the incentive for me to accept an appointment by our Kiwanis International President Tom DeJulio. As a result, at the 98th Annual Kiwanis International Convention in Vancouver, B. C., Canada, the Executive Board approved my appointment. On October 1st, 2013, I will begin my 3 year term as Kiwanis International Trustee on the Kiwanis International Foundation Board. This appointment will keep me close to the World Wide Eliminate MNT Project. It also provides an opportunity for the Southwest District to have a presence at the International Level.
Our most recent past Kiwanis International Trustees Tim Young and Jim Jennings( SWD Key Club Administrator) have set the bar. I accept this challenge with the support of our Service Leadership Programs, especially CKI, and our Kiwanians, I believe it will be achievable. Once again, I thank you and promise to serve you honorably, dedicating all of my energy to ensure the future of Kiwanis International as we continue to“ serve the children of the world.” Ron Smith
