Weekly News – Dec 18, 2024

Everyone is in for a very Special Holiday treat at the meeting tomorrow! Be ready for lots of Holiday Cheer as Virginia Nickels and members of the Caliente Choir entertain us with favorite Christmas songs and maybe they will even invite us to sing along!  Be sure and wear your favorite ugly Christmas sweater!!  Whoever is the winner and has on the ugliest sweater, gets a Free Lunch!!!

Our speakers last week were Kelly and Beki Kelly and Beki Cassels with Afresh Start. Their business helps assist in the sale of properties that may need repairs or with other problematic situations that could occur regarding a sale of real estate. Beki said how much she enjoys our club and she is considering joining us. Also, Seth also did a great job telling us about MLK Day of Service, places to volunteer and how to volunteer.  (Work must be getting around about what awesome volunteers Kiwanians are!)

As the end of the year comes to a close, there is not as much information or news to share.  If you have anything for the newsletter to share, please send it over.   We do not have a meeting next week or the following week, so, no more Kiwanis luncheons until next year. The next meeting will be January 9.

KEY CLUBS AND THE SALVATION ARMY

Amber Danek is the most amazing Key Club Faculty Advisor at Farmington High.  She just sent us this message:  ALL the Key Clubs (PV, FHS, Rocinate, Aztec, and Gallup) in our District have adopted three families with the Salvation Army.  They are purchasing clothes, toys, and food for these families.  

The Board has approved Lori Monteverdi for membership. She retires after the first of January and plans to join Kiwanis at that time. Her sponsor is Jill.
