Our Lake San Marcos Kiwanis Club's installation luncheon was a ton of fun as we thanked our 2025-2026 Officers and Board of Directors for their dedication and welcomed our 2026-2027 Officers and Board Members on board. On page two, we reviewed what we accomplished in the past year and thanked Prez Toni for her awesome leadership! Next week, we'll applaud Prez John as he takes on the challenge of the new Kiwanis year. If you'd like to receive the full newsletter, please email [email protected].
