Thank you to all that came out to see us at Metro and Bullock’s Your Independent Grocer!  It was a cold day, but it was nice to see everyone’s smiling faces. 
Best of luck to those that purchased a ticket. Next draw is Feb 18th. And remember that even if you win, your ticket goes back in to potentially be drawn again and again!
 

The Builders Club at Pine Glen P.S. is now officially chartered.

While the weather wasn't great, we were still out at Bullock's Your Independent Grocer, lending a helping hand to help out the The Salvation Army Huntsville as we staffed the collections for their annual Christmas Kettles Campaign. Glad to assist! Don't forget that not only is cash accepted, but you can always tap!
A huge thank you to Krystal Fuller of The Salvation Army Huntsville for coming to speak to us at our Member Meeting tonight.   We love to hear what great things The Salvation Army Huntsville is up to and how we can be a part of it.  
 
Andrée Stenzel and Jan Stainer-White received their official Kiwanis documentation and K-Pin.  Welcome to the K-Family!!
 
And a huge thank you to Director Andreas Zapletal for his assistance in the Auditing of our books to bring us up to date. Thank you also goes out to Mary Ellen Simpson (not pictured) for her part in the Audit process as well.
We were back in full force as President Rick Brooks delivered supplies to our southern Muskoka Schools - Bracebridge P.S., Macaulay P.S., Monsignor Michael O'Leary C.S., Muskoka Beechgrove P.S., V.K. Greer Memorial P.S., Watt P.S. and Gravenhurst P.S. (no photo avail).  Sorting & boxing beforehand was completed by Kiwanians Pres. Rick Brooks, Val Dixon and friend of Kiwanis, David from Muskoka Puppy Yoga.  Thanks to all for helping out!
 
It was great to have Leslie Hutcheson come speak to our club tonight. She shared information on Huntsville 2026 Ontario 55+ Winter Games! What an event this will be!! Check out their web page. Volunteer if you can!
Tonight at our meeting Lieutenant Governor Tracey Craig presented the Board for 2025-2026 with their pins. New member Jan Stainer-White also got her K pin! Welcome to the Kiwanis family Jan!!
Past President Kathy Higgins also received her plaque from President Rick Brooks.
  
Last day for President Kathy Higgins! She and Immediate Past President Shirley Bullock gathered another load of pop tabs to be donated for the Robert Hampson Tabs for Kids Fund at Easter Seals Ontario to raise funds for wheelchairs. 
The tabs are converted to $$ and then turned into Wheelchairs and other adaptive equipment purchased for children. Easter Seals Ontario administers the fund and purchases the equipment. http://www.easterseals.org/
We are encouraging our members and the community to save their tabs.  You can contact Shirley (705-789-7793) to arrange for a drop off.  Thank you for your continued support!
 
Our Club loves being part of this!  Look at all those amazing kids… having fun, getting exercise, and spending time with their families…. No electronic devices, just pure fun!!  Thank you to IRONMAN Muskoka 70.3 for letting us assist with this again, to Jordan Engineering for their support and goodie bags, Bullock’s Your Independent Grocer for Freezies, and to everyone else, especially our volunteers for making this another successful event.
 
 

This is not a new program, but new to us; and one we feel we are now able as a community to actively support in this somewhat post-covid world.

             How it works is simple...
