The Kiwanis Club
of Martin was an all-male club until delegates to the International
Convention made it possible for women to participate as active
Kiwanians. The first women to be
inducted into our club were Nadine Gearin and Bettye Giles. Now
women make up over half of our membership. Thank you to Nadine for paving the way for women to become involved in
Kiwanis and for all her dedication to this club and it’s projects since
1988. She will be missed. |

 Membership-At
the beginning of Sue’s term as president she sat a goal to achieve a net 10%
growth in members for our club. Even
with our recent membership drive, we
are still minus several from where we
started. Help us help Sue reach her
goal and bring in new members. We will
need approximately 7 new members between now and Oct. 1st to meet
this goal. Another incentive is that
if we reach the goal, we will meet the criteria to be named a DISTINGUISHED
KIWANIS CLUB.
