NIXON SAYS FAREWELL TO THE SOUTHSIDE KIWANIS CLUB IN 2006
To my fellow Southside Kiwanians,
It has been an exciting journey and great experience for us all as a team. I want to thank all of you that showed support during my two-term reign as the Evansville Southside Kiwanis President. This is just the beginning dear friends. I've had the opportunity to be involved with a group of men and women that love their community and the youth. As a new Charter in the Evansville/Vanderburgh County, together we managed to support the "Bringing Up A Grade" (BUG) Program at Lincoln Elementary School, Family Day In The Park, Feed A Family, Southside Kiwanis Variety Show, and families affected by KATRINA. We have raised over $5,000.00, in fundraising throughout the 2004-05 year, and I am proud to say that we have accomplished a great amount of charitable contributions in such a short period of time in the Evansville area.
In the Project Account there is a remaining balance of $2,054.29, and in the Administrative Account there is a remaining balance of $1,917.89.
On behalf of my family and I, we wish to thank the following:Green River Kiwanis, Steve Page, Terry White, Helen Fisher, Formal Governor Donovan Peoples, newly elected Governor Pat Hawkins, most of all Sergeant-At-Arms, Bill George, and to all of the Evansville Southside Kiwanis members.
Remember, "Each One Can Reach One, but we must all be willing to support each other."
God bless the Evansville Southside Kiwanis Club.
Thank you,
David J. Nixon, President
Evansville Southside Kiwanis Club
