Our Annual Holiday Luncheon on Tuesday, December 19, will be a wonderful gathering as always! We will enjoy holiday songs, the disbursement of our 2017 grants, and Santa may even visit! You are encouraged to bring guests. You are also requested to bring one gift for a child at Hillside or at a Boys and Girls Club. Please note the suggestions for each agency below.
Hillside (ages 8-17) requests that gifts be unwrapped. Suggestions are: Board games, Nerf balls, volley and soccer balls, sports team jerseys, Hot Wheels cars, stuffed animals, arts and crafts/coloring books, gift cards (Wal-Mart, Target, Ross, McDonalds, etc.), Barbie dolls, girls and boys’ watches, books for children and teens.
Boys and Girls Clubs (ages 6-18) request that gifts also be unwrapped. Suggested gifts would be the same as for Hillside. Additionally, stories about sports figures are appreciated along with books that are colorfully illustrated and depict persons and scenes representative of a variety of cultures and ethnic groups. Please show on the outside of the package what is in the package and whether the gift is for a boy, a girl, or either.
If you prefer to make a monetary donation rather than purchasing a gift, please give your money to Karen Losin by December 12, Noon. You may also contact the Kiwanis office and request that your gift be billed to your account. Gift requests after this date can be given directly to the organization.
Please make your guest reservations by Friday, December 15, at KiwanisClubAtlanta@gmail.com. After this date, we cannot guarantee that we can add additional seats.
Let’s make this a great Christmas for these very deserving kids!
Do you want to let the members of our club know more about you and your business? Do you want to network and cultivate more business contacts? If you answered yes, then you need to sign up to do a "Member Spotlight" at one of our club meetings!
Spotlights are done every 2nd and 4th Tuesday luncheon meeting (and the occasional 5th) each month. You have two minutes to showcase your business and tell the other members how you can benefit them! To get on the schedule, just email Karen at KiwanisClubAtlanta@gmail.com.
The Kiwanis Club of Atlanta Centennial Gala will be Tuesday, April 24, 2018! All Kiwanis Club members and their guests can get their tickets now! CLICK HERE or go to link on Club Website at www.kiwanisatlanta.org
Don't get the BOOT! Be sure your car has a Kiwanis Club of Atlanta car decal properly displayed on your vehicle.
The security company contracted by Lanier Parking will be booting all cars that are parked in the reserved parking places and that do not have a valid decal on their car identifying them as attending the Kiwanis Club of Atlanta luncheon. So if you arrive prior to 11:45 am on Tuesday, please make sure you have a parking decal on your car. You can get a decal from Karen at the luncheon meeting, and then place it on the right back window (passenger side) from inside your car. They are static cling, so easy to put on and take off!
Just in case you missed the last couple Member Spotlights at the Kiwanis Club of Atlanta luncheon meeting, we have listed the last few below. The next time you need someone with their expertise, please, "Do Business with a Kiwanian!"
"Do Business" with these Kiwanians!
