Here is kiwanis recruiting in action!!!!
Today I had a diagnostic procedure at an imaging center in Williamsburg. The very proficient and friendly technician noticed that I was wearing a Kiwanis polo which stated "MAKING A DIFFERENCE FOR CHILDREN". She immediately asked if I had anything to do with The Childrens Fishing Clinic. You know, the one where KIDS are taught about marine life, given a fishing pole and tackle , a tee shirt and fed breakfast and lunch. The one where they learn to bait a hook and experience catching fish. When I said yes she said that her children had never fished before and now they loved to fish and talk about marine life. She thanked us for engaging her children and sparking their interest in natural opportunities.
If ever I wondered whether or not we Kiwanians make a difference now I know. One CAN make a difference... You can make a difference.
Are you interested In making a difference? PM me and I will invite you to learn more about Kiwanis. For me, at least, " It's all about the KIDS" ... See MoreSee Less
