Hello , Southwest CKI ’ ers ! Since we last saw you , UofA CKI has participated in quite a few events ! We lent a hand at Kiwanis Relays , participated in and fundraised for Relay for Life , showed our appreciation for educators during Teacher Appreciation Week , and helped Beads of Courage at Cyclovia Tucson ! Additionally , we had an end of the year BBQ Social at our local park , and held our last meeting of the semester . UofA CKI ' s last meeting of the semester was bittersweet ! We were visited by Betty Misch and Tom Chaffin , who belong to Tucson Sunshine Kiwanis ! We also presented our member of the month to our star member , Cristy Solis , who goes out of her way to make sure that CKI does the best it can at our various events ! Finally , we presented our former president , John McMullen , with a scrapbook in order to thank him for all the service and dedication he has given to our club . Although saying good-bye for the summer was hard , our board can ' t wait for next year so that we can begin implementing some new changes that we feel will help our club grow stronger as a family , and get our members more excited about service , leadership , and fellowship than ever before ! ( Pictures left to right ) P . 1 : At Kiwanis Relay , UA CKI helped out with the long jump event for the 6th and 7th graders .
