Congratulations Builders Club-Our Kiwanis Builders Club at Martin Middle School was named a Distinguished Club by Kiwanis International for the 08-09 school year.  We awarded them a patch for their banner yesterday.  They earned this by completing all the requirements set forth by international for service to their school and community.

New Club Site-
We are attempting to start a new Kiwanis Club in Greenfield.  This will be a summer project with the hopes of putting a Key Club at Greenfield High School this fall.  Do you know someone who would make a good Greenfield Kiwanian?  Let Misty know.

Bring in New Members--
Membership Drive is in the 8th inning! Score runs for your team by bringing a potential member to a club meeting.  Score a grand slam (4 runs) if that person joins Kiwanis!

Farewell- To members Keith Thompson and Teri Towe.  Keith will be leaving Martin to a new medical clinic in Mayfield, KY.   Teri, a former club president travels with her job so much that she felt she could no longer keep membership with Kiwanis.  We wish these 2 the best.
