Congratulations to our Club Spotlight for the month of September, the Kiwanis Club of Tysons, VA!
"In addition to a full slate of ad-hoc service projects this year, the Kiwanis Club of Tysons resumed its Safe Sitter babysitter training in full force which was submitted to KI as a Signature Project having graduated now over 1000 students since they began the project. They helped support the new Kiwanis Club of Haymarket/Gainesville by inviting them to partner on their annual summer fundraiser -- concessions at 8 concerts at Jiffy Lube Live. The club celebrated its 25th anniversary as a Kiwanis club this June with the official announcement that they are launching their first massive-scale fundraising project, an annual Kiwanis Polar Dip event in Reston, Virginia on February 10th, 2024. This event, previously named the Virginia Polar Dip benefiting Camp Sunshine has raised $1,000,000 in its previous 18 year run. The club has done a couple of large meal-packing projects for Food for Others this year and has also increased its membership by 30% so far with a few more prospects still in the pipeline. They continue to support an impressive 9 service leadership programs."

He served as a distinguished Club president from 2004 to 2005 and four years later he served as his division’s lieutenant governor. John has held the position of secretary/treasurer for the club for many years and during the past year, he has also served as editor of The Capital Kiwanian. From 2018 to 2021, he also served as the Southwest Virginia Region trustee. He is always willing to help with a local, Division or District project and lend a helping hand or provide guidance to anyone who can use his expertise. This is also demonstrated by his serving as an educator within the Division and District. John is always the humble gentleman and truly exemplifies the definition of service to others."
