As he was researching our Club's history, Tom Roberts ran across an interesting article, which is posted in the Download Files area. There was a "summit meeting" including Cheyenne and Laramie Kiwanis clubs at what is now The Summit on I-25, before any roads existed up there. And what grandiose plans were made... (see article for details).

From Laura Munari:
We will be having our holiday meeting/party on the 20th. There will be entertainment, lunch for kids of all ages (I will not judge if someone feels compelled to nosh off the kids' buffet) and, of course, a visit from the big guy in red!
We are going to do candy for the kiddos, so if you would please let me know if you plan on bringing your children, grand-children, neighbor's kids, etc. I would hate to not have enough for all that are in attendance.
So, please let me know a head count!
And, if you planning on bringing extra adults, it would be nice to know that too, so we can make sure we have enough seating. (Note: Laura needs to know by Friday, 12/14.)
Thank you!
Laura

The Cheyenne Kiwanis Club Foundation has been working to support construction of an accessible playground for all ages and abilities at Cheyenne's Cahill Park for four years now. Our Club's past President, Patty Benskin, has identified support of the project a priority for the Club as well.
Every little bit helps. And, if you can, consider a gift of $500 or more for recognition as a playground fellow. Thanks for your support.
The accessible play area, as it looked on April 27, 2018, being enjoyed by many kids.
Craig Hiett of AAMCO Transmission/Meineke Mufflers has started a Customer Loyalty Program for Kiwanis Club members. A percentage of each Kiwanis Club member's auto repair bill will be returned to the Club's Foundation.
