The
Kiwanis Club of Greater Ocean Pines/Ocean City had the
opportunity to present their message to the public at the
Annual Delmarva Chicken Festival in Salisbury , Maryland.
They helped man the Ocean Pines Chamber of Commerce booth
and seek out new members for either the Ocean Pines/ Ocean
City Club or the proposed new club trying to form in Salisbury.

Kiwanis gave out free Child Safety Stickers for car seats
which provide vital information about the child in the event
of an emergency. Chances for the Kiwanis Annual Duck Race
