in all human relationships.
3. To promote the
adoption and the application of higher
social, business, and professional standards.
4. To develop, by
precept and example, a more intelligent,
aggressive, and serviceable citizenship.
5. To provide,
through Kiwanis clubs, a practical means
to form enduring friendships, to render altruistic service, and to
build
better communities.
6. To cooperate in
creating and maintaining that sound
public opinion and high idealism which make possible the increase of
rightousness,
justice, patriotism, and goodwill.

never hear mentioned.

Total saved due to Beall's discounts, $226. Funds come from the winner's share of our weekly drawing proceeds. Seemingly
small things grow large over time, especially when supplemented by
generous community retailers like Jim Goodman at Bealls. The Dictionary ProjectNorm
Mears will soon have the dictionaries ready for some 460 3rd graders.
The Community Christian School has been added this year, and volunteers
are needed to delivered to them and to Hawks Rise.

Thoughts for Today-- One of the many things no one tells you about aging is that it is such a nice
change from being young. HOW
TO MAKE UP MISSED MEETINGS TO MAINTAIN YOUR PERFECT ATTENDANCE
RECORD Simply attend
a meeting of another club, including AKtion, Key, K-Kids, or another
Kiwanis Club, a Division Council meeting, a club project, or a Board
meeting. With all these possibilities there is little reason
not to have perfect attendance.
To Do
List: Get your
guest's email address and send him/her the link to our Newsletter
each week. Increase your efforts for the
coming year. Help us
grow toward better community service.
PERFECT ATTENDANCE AWARDS
Tell Secretary Al Eppinger how many years
are shown on your current perfect attendance tab, if you have one.
Also, tell him how many years you have earned. This includes
previous membership in other Kiwanis clubs. This is not for calender
