Chris Binkert, a native of Ohio, began his interest in the US Presidents about 40 years ago. He started by trying to collect 1 biography of each President. Plus, he had 8 presidential homes to visit in Ohio.

Over the years, his collection expanded to include presidential campaign buttons, historic newspapers from special presidential moments, trivia, and memorabilia gathered from his visits to presidential museums, libraries and monuments scattered all over the country.

He honed his presentation skills by teaching business courses at the University of Toledo for 2 years, and by pursuing a 45-year career in marketing and sales.

Chris created a calendar called One Day at A Time with the Presidents, has been a docent at the William Howard Taft Museum in Cincinnati, and has given presentations to his children and grandchildren’s elementary school classes, as well as to local service groups.

A resident of Big Canoe since 2014, Chris has written a monthly column for Smoke Signals since 2020 called Bringing the Presidents to Life.

KCA Weekly Meeting Registration due on Thursdays at Noon
The deadline to submit your reservation to attend the weekly meeting is now Thursday at Noon.  The Loudermilk Center caterers need to order our food on Fridays for delivery early the next week.  So we don't have the ability to get additional food at the last minute.  If you don't have a reservation, you are welcome to attend the meeting, but must wait until after the meeting starts to see if there is food remaining.  Thanks for your help with this.
KCA Lunch Cancellation Policy
The KCA Weekly Luncheon meetings are the best place to come, hear our fabulous speakers, enjoy fellowship and a fabulous lunch.  Starting in November, our food service will again be provided by the Loudermilk Center catering department, so no more bringing in bags of meals, plates, etc.!  However, with this change we must have a firm reservation count by the Friday noon prior to the meeting.  So last minute add ons will be more difficult.  This also means that when you do make a reservation and do not attend, we have left over food that we must pay for.
 
Cancellation Policy: The board of directors approved a policy to begin charging all members that have a reservation, but do not attend, the cost of their meal.  Please be sure that you both make your reservation to attend, or cancel one that you may have, by Noon on the Friday prior to the luncheon!  If you currently are on the auto registration list, but are not attending regularly, please email me so that I can remove your name and you can sign up for the meetings you can attend.  And if you are attending regularly, consider adding your name to the auto registration list so that you don't have to worry about it!
 
Thanks for your attention to this!
Automatic In Person Attendance Registration Available!
Are you attending the KCA weekly meetings in person all the time and want to skip the registration process?  Just email Karen at KiwanisClubAtlanta@gmail.com and have your name added to the automatic attendance list.  Easy Peasy.  All we ask is that you let us know when you ARE NOT going to be there so we don't have extra food ordered.  Add your name to the list today and we will see you on Tuesday, Jan 4th!
