Capital District CKI "Odyssey of Service"
by Past Gov. Bob Bressy

The Kiwanis Mid-Winters have begun for Kiwanis and on February 15-17th, Capital District Circle K International (CKI) had the K-Family's first 2008 Convention entitled "An Odyssey of Service" in Fairfax, Virginia. Don't they just have a great way to present a theme for their DCONs? They are creative and inspiring. Our Service Leadership Programs are the Kiwanis family's most distinguishing trademark. When you see these young people from K-Kids, Builders Clubs, Key Clubs and Circle K CKI perform their magic you are filled with pride and respect. more

Update on District Strategic Plan
by Gov. Elect Tom Ganse

By the time you read this, the proposed Strategic Plan has been reviewed in two increments by the District Long Range Planning Committee, those incremental results have been endorsed by the District Board, and four of the eight District Regions have had the opportunity to attend presentations on "VISION: 20/15", to include the Strategic Plan. Between now and mid-April, all remaining Regions will share in that opportunity. From there, all input from all sources will be considered before the Board endorses a final version of the Plan. That final version will be presented to the House of Delegates for ratification in Richmond this Summer. Once ratified by the delegates, the plan belongs to the District membership and the District Board will be charged with executing it. more

Waldorf Club Welcomes KI President Dave & First Lady Eva
by Millie Kriemelmeyer

Kiwanis Club of Waldorf members welcomed Kiwanis International President Dave Curry and First Lady Eva (right) to the Capital District in January. Past Governor Jerry Peuler, member of the Waldorf Club, helped plan and implement the Official Visit and escorted our honored guests to many of their various events. They were particularly impressed with the long history of the Capital District area, including Southern Maryland.

PG Jerry, on behalf of the Waldorf Club, presented Dave and Eva with Capital District's patriotic red, white and blue shirts, gift of the Waldorf Club and made by member Lloyd Morrison, owner of Somethin' Special.

At the district dinner for Dave and Eva, master of ceremonies Jerry presented the first couple with a framed composite of photographs depicting famous historical sites from each Capital District state, as well as the District of Columbia. Governor Art Riley's idea for the photographic composite was translated into reality by Waldorf Club member, Eric Kriemelmeyer, a graphic artist. The Kiwanis Club of Waldorf was honored to celebrate the Official Visit of KI President Dave Curry and First Lady Eva.
