In the last few weeks, our club has admitted new members Sheylinn Gano, Brenda Winkle and Chris and Jaclynn Anderson. We welcome them and want to help each of them get acclimated to and involved in our activities. The Sherwood High School Key Club continues to be very active; and after holding a meeting with the Principal and staff at the Sherwood Middle School, we were jointly given permission to proceed with the formation of a Builder’s Club. In June, we presented a $2,500 scholarship to an outstanding graduating Key Club senior. On July 19th, we presented to Clark Farrand, the Faculty Advisor to the Sherwood High School Key Club, an “Everyday Hero Award”, recognizing his ten years of service helping hundreds of Key Clubbers develop the desire to serve others. In recent weeks, several of our members have helped other local Kiwanis clubs with projects. We helped the Hillsboro club with their 4th of July Pancake Breakfast; and we helped the Tualatin club at the Sherwood Robin Hood Festival. We continue to consistently support the Packed with Pride and Good Neighbor Center projects. On July 29th , we hosted our annual Salmon BBQ to raise funds for the Kiwanis Doernbecher Children’s Cancer Program. We are proud to announce that this event raised over $3000 for the cause! In August, five members are attending the Pacific Northwest District Convention. My congratulations to the membership for all that you do!

Our good fortune was to hear Kyle speak at a recent meeting!
We continue to do volunteer work twice a month at the Good Neighbor Center. There is new administration at the site; and therefore, there are new guidelines for us working there.
We have to sign-up online to get our usual spot on the second and fourth Thursdays of the month. We’ve managed to do that for the rest of this 2023 year. But it will be a task we’ll need to do every January from now on. All adult workers must register online with them in advance of their first work shift; and go through a background check that they administer.
One positive change is that we are no longer required to wear masks to work in the kitchen! We continue to give them a spaghetti and meatballs meal, with salad, garlic bread and a vegetable. We usually arrive by around 4:45 p.m.; and we are out of there by 6:10. We manage to get some of the supplies donated from Packed with Pride; but typically, each meal costs around $50 to produce.
