The Reister's Towne Festival on Saturday, and Sunday Sept 8 and 9, celebrated the ending of summer by providing fun, games, food and entertainment for the communities of Reisterstown, Owings Mills, and Glyndon.

The Kiwanis Club of Reisterstown, MD entered this float (right) in the 21th year of the Reister's Towne Festival. Our float presented the various children related projects that we support. From the left, we had students receiving $6,000 in scholarships; the presentation of Terrific Kids certificates and bumper stickers; sponsored Key Clubs; soccer players on our sponsored team and our troop sponsored boy scouts tying knots.

To raise funds for our service budget and projects, our members make and sell funnel cakes (left) at the festival grounds over the week-end. We sold a few cakes shy of 700. We helped fill the stomachs of the Festival crowd and had the opportunity to tell them about our service to the community.
