Officer Derek Lahti read to the kiddos at Boys & Girls Clubs of the Fox Valley and Sgt Kong Lee read at Long Cheng Community Center. Thanks for all your support APD.

Between the two events, Appleton Fox Cities Kiwanis gave out over 400 free books.

One of the great things about our Kiwanis meetings is the opportunity to hear from community leaders and learn about what is happening throughout the Fox Valley. This week, we are taking our meeting on the road!

Join us THIS FRIDAY at the Valley Transit Appleton Transit Center, 100 E. Washington St., Appleton. We will begin our meeting in one of the buses at 7:15 a.m., and around 7:40 a.m. we will board the Route 9 bus for a community ride to experience the Fox Cities from a different perspective.

During the ride, we’ll enjoy some fun games while learning more about public transportation and how the bus system helps connect our community. The route will return to the Transit Center at 8:10 a.m.

We look forward to seeing everyone and exploring the Fox Valley together!

Way to go, Oshkosh Police Department.  Your commitment to the community is outstanding.Wisconsin Upper Michigan Kiwanis

Thank you, Appleton Police Department, Appleton Fox Cities Kiwanis Club, Boys & Girls Clubs of America, and Community Early Learning Center.

We appreciate all of your support.

We hold three reading sessions each month at locations throughout our community, and they wouldn’t be possible without the dedicated volunteers at the Appleton Fox Cities Kiwanis Club. They make sure each child gets a book to take home, and we are grateful for their continued support of our young readers.
