🌟 Shoutout to the Eugene Kiwanis Club! 🌟 This past Saturday, they rolled up their sleeves to give our play yard a much-needed facelift. They pulled out six dead Rhodies, planted new ones, and left our yard looking better than ever. A big thank you to Raymond Albano, Mara Supan, Larry Buck, Tom Meienberg, David Davis, and four dedicated Key Clubbers. 👏

The Eugene Kiwanis Club has been a pillar of support for Parenting Now for years. They join us for our auction each year and when we bought our building in the late 90’s, they volunteered to do the much-needed interior demolition. They truly rock! 🎸

If you’re interested in joining this amazing club and making a difference in our community, reach out to Raymond for contact info. 🤝

We also want to give a shoutout to Rocky Knoll Farm for their generous discount on the Rhodies. 🌺
The Kiwanis Club of Eugene is part of Kiwanis International and is a hands-on, volunteer service organization dedicated to improving the lives of children in our community. They welcome men and women from all walks of life and their members include business owners, executives, educators, employees at all levels, and retirees. They support other local organizations such as Food for Lane County, Head Start, Key Clubs, local Lane County schools, and Doernbecher Children’s Hospital.

They meet on the first and third Wednesdays, 11:45, for a buffet lunch at the Eugene Mission Banquet Room, where they have speakers covering a wide variety of current, useful, and informative topics. Meetings may be accessed via Zoom and visitors are always welcome. 🤗
