We

and his parents from the Kiwanis Club of Since
April 3rd is the Division Council meeting that we will be at
the Dallas Children’s This
upcoming Saturday, the host clubs are We
also hope to have the balloons there to close this meeting for Division
#37. I have been blown away by Division# 37 on this Quarter’s
Service Project---the largest # of coloring books and crayons ever (at
least that’s what I think-smiles). There aren’t enough words to
shout out about Mike as Chair. Excellence is his signature. OK.
Take Care. See you Saturday Morning. Warmly, Alice Mae Alice

Lt. Governor’s Message: October, 2009 We
brought the bags of food into the lobby where three children and their
mother sat waiting to retrieve it and hike back to the bus stop.
As we neared them with the food, one of the two little boys stood and
rushed forward to put his hands under a bag. As he took the weight
of the bag, he instantly began scanning the content when his eyes caught
sight of a package of hot dogs. He said, “hot dogs” in an excited
shout, then dropped to the floor and began announcing to his siblings
every item of food. They rushed forward to see. Their
mother, with a nervous and embarrassed smile, told him to get up so they
could get to the bus stop. As the little boy went out the door
carrying the bag of food, we heard him ask affirmatively to his mother,
“We’re going to have hot dogs tonight, right mom?” I.
Focus
on the basics that children need for healthy growth and development—food,
shelter, clothing, education and healthcare II.
Deliver
to children truly rewarding experiences---with
a special emphasis on the physically challenged within our communities III.
Become
continuous ambassadors---speak
wherever possible and as often as possible for children who are counting
on us to engage more concerned people In
Division 37, this is our time to grow, one
to one. Absolutely every individual with whom we speak on
behalf of a child will understand the importance. He or
she immediately will share in the discovery we already have made, that
the height of esteem is service above self. The existence of
Kiwanis International has made it really easy for that individual we
will meet to immediately join in this phenomenal effort. We
just need to tell that individual (1.) how significantly he will help,
(2.) how to join in with all of us, and (3.) how to fit it well inside
of his own life because, first and foremost, he must take good care
himself and his own family. I
am excited for children yet to know how much we deeply care about them,
and I am excited to meet the future Kiwanians who will lend that helping
hand for them. I
look forward to a positive Kiwanis Year filled with joy and happiness,
fun and positive support within our Division. See you soon. Warmly, Alice Mae Britt, 2009-2010 Lt. Governor Chief Executive Officer Network
