Jon Umphress reviews Kiwanis Club year
Jon Umphress presented Power Point slide show detailing Ada Kiwanis Club highlights of the 2016 Kiwanis year.
Beginning with Kiwanis International’s entry in the 2016 Tournament of Roses Parade and ending with the club’s annual Christmas Luncheon/Auction, Christmas Benevolence project and the gift of books to students in pre-school classes and Ada Elementary, it was summed as a very busy year.
Other activities highlighted included the annual Pancake and Sausage Day, the planting of two trees in War Memorial Park, club-sponsored American Red Cross swimming lessons, assistance at the Ada pool, the Halloween Parade and the annual spaghetti dinner.
