THE Kiwanis Club of Tecumseh’s
mission is to “Serve the Children of the World”. This year the Club is celebrating their 65th Anniversary. For the past 65 years, Kiwanis members have been very active in serving the local community through various service and fundraising projects for the benefit of youth, senior citizens, and the community as a whole. The club supports many projects in the community including the Tecumseh Service Club, Newsong Community Church Food Pantry, and Community Learning Connections. Kiwanis also provides financial support for high school swim meets and club members work at the meets as timekeepers. The Kiwanis-sponsored Key Club at the High School and the Builders Club at the middle school provide students with leadership training. The club awards scholarships annually to high school seniors, with a portion of the funds coming from the Flag Project. This year, Kiwanis awarded $12,300 to 11 students according to Scholarship Committee Chair Susan Gilmore. While the flag project is just one of the many fund-raisers Kiwanis members hold to support community programs, it is the most important. “We started the flag project eight years ago, and the community has enthusiastically supported it,” Wendy Brys, past President of the club, said. “It continues to grow in popularity each year. Right now, club members distribute and collect a little over 1,000 flags to subscribers for six national holidays.” Flag subscriptions are $35 annually and Kiwanis members do all the work of setting up, collecting, and storing the flags. Flags can be ordered online or on the club’s Facebook page. The Kiwanis Club of Tecumseh meets virtually every Tuesday at 7:00 am until we can meet again in person at the Tecumseh United Methodist Church on Bishop Reed Drive.
