Greetings Fellow Kiwanians............

Next Week Punt, Pass and Kick
We need all members to come to next weeks meeting and to help out with Punt,Pass and Kick at the Hilltop...

We still have four clubs to attend for inter clubs by the end of the month. With that being said, we have a great opportunity
on Saturday September 20th. The Lake Delta and Westmoreland Clubs will be having their Installation Dinner that night in New Hartford at the American Legion. $18.00 for the dinner including 50/50. With the following menu, Roast Beef Ham, Chicken and Baked Ziti and lots of Salads... New Hartford Legion all ways puts on a great meal. Freddy called me with this info as I got home from our meeting. He's says to come hungry, that they will have a lot of food. The best part is, that if we can go, we will get credit for both Westmoreland and Lake Delta for this years Inter clubs. So we have a great opportunity to get these clubs done in one shot. We have a group of guys going to Old Forge for their installation the following day on Sunday the 21st. Which will give us Rome to do all the clubs for this year. I'll need to let both clubs know how many will be coming to their respective dinners, by next week end. Come to next weeks meeting to finalize who and where you may attend......

Keep in mind our installation dinner is on October 18th at The Knight Spot.......,

Also keep in mind we have another Parking opportunity at

They collected 40 plus pints of blood.

The previous week we had Vinny Ioccvazzi come and speak about his experiences in The 911 and Catrina aftermath search and recovery of the remains of those who were lost during those tragic events.

Our Club and The Salvation Army Cafe

Well it's September and we are at the time when we have to decide whether or not we, as a club, will continue to help support the Salvation Army Cafe. It seems that there only is a small group that comes to help out on our "once a month" day to cook and serve a meal to those who are less fortunate than us. Those that come to eat at the S A Cafe on a regular basis, look forward to our club coming in to cook for them.
some thought from this mornings meeting. It was always thought that this would br a great way to get to do something to do together with the Key Club on a regular basis. We are a service organization and we are to do services to our community and those who need help. This kind of activity would help strengthen our ties with our sponsored clubs. It is one thing to sit back and just write out checks and give them to this and that group, it means a lot more to say we did this to help this group or that one.

It's time to shit or get off the pot.

We are going to go ahead with The S A Cafe for September. We will try it again this month . What we want is a commitment from each and every member to help out at least once . or twice. It's only one Monday a month. Thats twelve days in a whole year. We know it's a bad time, 5 to 7 PM . But if you can't come to help set up and cook, at least you might be able to come to help clean up. We need people to commit to helping out one day or two days during the whole year. It's not that much time and it is a worthy cause. So sign up to do a day or two. Send me an email, or come to a meeting to commit.
