Fall 2023
President‘s Message
The Holidays are a very special and busy time of year for the Hanover Kiwanis Club in our mission of serving the children in the our community.
October in Hanover is a great time to be a kid, and what better way to help kids have fun than our annual march in the Jaycee’s Hanover Halloween Parade. This Hanover tradition goes back many decades. This year our Club’s theme will be The Eighties. Also on October 21st, you will find us with our Key Clubbers out and about at our bi-annual Highway Cleanup picking up litter along Route 194 and Moulstown Road. The amount of trash we collect never ceases to amaze us, but the result is always worth a couple hours of sweat and teamwork.
November brings us our Annual New Teacher's Night where we welcome and celebrate the new and dedicated educators in the Hanover area school districts. Kiwanis will also have volunteers helping to pack 200,000 meals at the Hanover Against Hunger meal packing event at St. Mathew’s Lutheran Church. We end the month helping to decorate our quadrant of the Hanover Square for Christmas as well as volunteer at Santa’s Cabin, seeing the wonder and magic on kids’ faces very much alive.
The Holiday season is also Kiwanis Pecan season! This major fundraising event for Kiwanis helps support numerous charities in Hanover. Please look for us on Saturday mornings at the Old Hanover Market and Markets on Broadway. Beautifully packaged, our deliciously-flavored pecans are perfect, small gifts for friends and co-workers. Or just have as table snacks for your holiday parties and get-togethers. Our goal is to raise $8000 this year, all of which goes right back to out community.
Last, we encourage everyone to take this time to be thankful for the blessings in their lives and challenge themselves to be kind to those in need of blessings. The Hanover Kiwanis Club is a place where people from all walks of life can come and put their talents to work helping others in the Hanover community. All our welcome to join us in our mission of service and having fun!
