One meeting of the month (usually the first) will be devoted to Kiwanis activities.

At these meetings we will do mixer/scramble seating so that members can get to know each other. At the October 1st meeting, we will be stuffing the adorable companion dolls that Kitty and her team make. These are then donated to organizations dealing with traumatized children.
