June is always an excellent time to reflect on the mission of Kiwanis - Serving the Children of the World. This is because June is the end of the academic year, and for many of the youth we support, it means new beginnings are coming!
Today we had members of the GW Graham Key Club join us this morning. They were in attendance by special invite because this is a special bunch of students. Sheila and Barry invited them and had gifts and certificates to present the Key Clubbers because they are graduating and some of these talented, dedicated and amazing young people have been there since the beginning! You could tell they all cherish their time spent in the GW Graham Key Club because there were tears and smiles. A super special morning for sure!
Thank you Sheila and Barry for being the perfect mentors and thank you Key Clubbers for being you!
Barry wrapped our meeting with a wonderful, powerful musical number "My Father's Son". Thank you everyone for continuing to be awesome!
Talk soon.
