Cal-Nev-Ha District

Governor Pete Edwards Luncheon on Saturday, April 29th, 2017

Members of the Kiwanis of Lincoln Foothills please consider attending

this event. Let’s show our Governor Pete Edwards and First Lady

Jeannette our Kiwanis Spirit! Our goal is to fill a table of ten. Board

members and members check your calendars. At our meeting on

Friday, March 17th we will have a sign-up sheet. We must report into

our Lt. Governor Laird Smith how many of us are attending.

For those of you who are looking to participate in an activity, this is a

great way to start. You will meet other Kiwanians and here about

“special people” who contribute to the success of Kiwanis. Join us for

lunch and an afternoon of awards hosted by Cal-Nev-Ha Governor Pete

Edwards.

We will recognize one of our own Kiwanis members, fellow Kiwanians

and community members with Distinguished Service Awards. Let’s

take pride in our club and have a great representation at the Governor’s

Luncheon.

Kiwanis Club of Lincoln Foothills Membership Growth

Contributed by Mary Luciano

Don’t forget to bring in new potential members. As of April 10th, we have added four new members for Fiscal Year

2016-2017. This year there is a challenge by Lt. Governor Laird Smith to obtain the new members. Let’s get creative

and get more members. See the Membership Challenge Chart below.

Let’s challenge ourselves to bring in more “worker bees.” Let’s get the word out about Kiwanis and all the wonderful

things that we do for our community.

Kathy Shaddox, our member chair will discuss at the next meeting ways to get new members and what tactics are

being used to recruit Millennials.

2017 Valentines Dinner & Dance New Orleans Dinner Donation

Contributed by Mike and Marty Sue Hart

The winners of the Valentines Dinner Dance New Orleans Dinner Auction for Four donated and hosted by

Kiwanians Michael and Marty Sue Hart was prepared by Chef Michael and served by Maid Marty Sue. The weather

was lovely and the evening started with wine in their backyard, accompanied with soft music, followed by dinner in

the dining room.

The Four-Course Dinner included Caesar Salad, Escargot served with Sourdough Bâtard, Etouffee with Rice and

Broccoli, and completed with Lemon Soufflé. The hosts joined the foursome at the end of the evening, enjoying getting

to know each other, and were graciously thanked by winner John Griffin, who said "You never know what you're

going to get when you bid on these events, but this evening was wonderful! The food, the table decorations,

everything was great!". Mike and Marty Sue thanked the foursome for bidding on their donated dinner and

explained that all of the winning bid monies will be donated by the Kiwanis Club of Lincoln Foothills to some of the

local elementary schools in Lincoln.
