August
13, 2009 Meeting
Our Club,
as well as the other Clubs in the area, were guests today of the R. J.
Sheffel Memorial Toy Project at their open house.
Scheffel
Toys provides wooden toys and games, hand crafted by volunteers, for
children who are disadvantaged or in crisis.. Guests were provided lunch and
given the opportunity to tour the facility, with the Scheffel volunteers,
see the many different toys and how they are made.
Several
donations to the project were made by the Kiwanis Clubs present including a
$250 dollar gift from our Club, presented by Yvonne Groak.
Dennis Dudley, President of Scheffel Toys, greeted those assembled and
introduced Ingham County Prosecuting Attorney Stuart Dunnings III. Mr.
Dunnings commented on the positive effect the work of Sheffel Toys and
Kiwanis Clubs has on young people in the area.
In his
comments Clarence Smith reminded our members, who have not already
volunteered to help with the Kiwanis Kids Tents at the LaborFest on Sept 5,
to sign up for a shift.
Everyone’s
help is needed to support this opportunity for Kiwanis exposure at no cost
to our Club. Contact Clarence or Jo Grubbe.
Jim Dalton
has provided the shift schedule for the Texas Hold 'Em games on Aug 31,
Sept 1 and Sept 2 at Trippers in Frandor. Our Club will be the sponsoring
charity on those days. Click

Before the
event Jim will be sending an email to those involved with the rules we are
to follow and the final shift schedule.
