WE ARE MEMBERS OF KIWANIS IN ORDER……..

• To give primacy to the human & spiritual rather than the material values of life.• To encourage the daily living of the Golden Rule in all human relationships.• To promote the adoption & the application of higher social, business, & professional

standards.• To develop, by precept and example, a more intelligent, aggressive, & serviceable citizenship.• To provide, through Kiwanis Clubs, a practical means to form enduring friendships, to render

altruistic service, & to build better communities.• To cooperate in creating & maintaining that sound public opinion & high idealism which make

possible the increase of righteousness, justice, patriotism, & goodwill.

Dr. John Wise, Duval County Superintendent of Schools, was the featured speaker at this week’s meeting.  Dr. Wise outlined the aggressive new plans he has for our local schools.  He mentioned a 9th grade keystone project for each student, to encourage them to get more deeply involved in subjects of their liking, and a final capstone project to show the depth and breadth of their learning leading up to graduation.  One of his main philosophical points was the notion of giving teachers and all of the lower levels of the education hierarchy, freedom to be more creative.  He is determined that our young folks be prepared to compete successfully in the global competition. -Butch Shadwell

NEW KIWANIS PICTURE DIRECTORYNEW KIWANIS PICTURE DIRECTORY

All new members, seasoned members, officers and Board members should plan to attend this annual event for Florida Kiwanians. For those who have been to past Florida conventions, you'll agree that these conventions include a lot of great workshops, speakers, and our election of October 1st District officers--and there is still time for fun, so bring your families. Our club secretary will be getting info on the Convention frequently, and it will be in your Florida Kiwanis magazines--or go to www.Floridakiwanis.com Bill Montgomery
