Westbrook Kiwanis held their annual installation dinner, similar to Rotary’s changeover events, on Tuesday October 24. Kiwanians from other local clubs and District dignitaries were present to thank the outgoing officer team and induct the incoming team.  We are happy to report that Veronica Bates is continuing as President of Westbrook Kiwanis for 2017-2018.
 
During the event, Veronica announced a little surprise.  She presented a Certificate of Appreciation to Christine Johnson in recognition of our club’s collaborations in support of improving the lives of children in our community. This has included support of The Locker Project, the joint Food Drive we conducted in September, and literacy projects like the essay contest. She also recognized the efforts of Deb Shangraw who was unable to attend.  We look forward to future opportunities to collaborate.
