Each time, when I complete our Monthly Report which is recorded at Kiwanis International, I am asked, “Did your club do anything this month to recognize someone?” I was looking through the PNW website and found the information below. We could order pins and certificates, 12 of each, for $60. It would be a great way to bring attention to deserving individuals, as well as to our club, as we invite our recipients to meetings, take pictures and then put them into the local newspaper.

Everyday Hero

The Everyday Hero Pin and/or Certificate can be used to honor anyone, Kiwanian or not, that you feel has given exemplary service to their community. It is recommended to award one a month and make it a part of your club’s interaction with the community. Invite local media to the presentation and let people see your Kiwanis club honoring those who serve your community.

While on the PNW website, I also found THIS! Check it out! We should apply by October 15, 2023 for Distinguished Club recognition! Can you figure out for which categories we fulfill the requirements?

There were some items available on Amazon that were mentioned in the April 2023 newsletter. None were food. GNC also has an extensive list of foods needs that anyone can buy to help them feed their residents. Visit this URL: https://www.amazon.com/ hz/wishlist/ls/C7WZBP00 IBZN/ref=hz_ls_biz_ex

Who knew that the GNC’s #1 item on the food list would be SPAM? Wonder if they need this, too?

Saturday, May 13th marked the 31st Annual SW Washington Kiwanis Club's Golf ournament to support the Kiwanis Doernbecher Children's Cancer Program (KDCCP). The event was held at the beautiful Lewis River Golf Course east of Woodland, Washington. Tigard Kiwanis Club had a foursome headed by President Bob Bell and his friend Tim Ullom, member Bill Pennell and member Marlene Wilson's dad, Jeff Wilson. While the team did not come close to winning the tournament, (the real winners are the kids that the tournament supports), we did par a couple of holes and the shot of the day was Jeff's 40-foot putt. It was a beautiful, cloudless day, and as the saying goes...fun was had by all!
