Kiwanis Club Plans 65th Anniversary Zoom Celebration

The Kiwanis Club of Severna Park will celebrate its 65th anniversary this December and would like to thank the Severna Park community for all of its support over the years. The Kiwanis Club is a group of volunteers dedicated to serving children and young adults on a local and international level.

Kiwanis Club members encourage the community to join them for a virtual Zoom celebration on Tuesday, December 15, at 7:00pm. Closer to that date, the link will be posted on the Kiwanis Club website and Facebook page.

“We plan on having a celebration in the future when we can all safely get together, but we invite you for our virtual one for now,” said Past President Rachel Jacobs. “We are going to celebrate and share our club’s history in the area and show pictures of a lot of our projects, activities, fundraisers, etc. through the years. If you have any history on the Severna Park Kiwanis Club, please share it with us. We would love to see what you have!”

The club is holding a fill-the-box event for the Kiwanis Kids Closet at Belle Grove Elementary throughout November. Requested items include diapers, wipes, baby food and bottles, baby blankets, and hygiene items (toothpaste, toothbrushes, soap, deodorant, shampoo). Have a meal, support Garry’s Grill and donate baby supplies for the box.

“We are so thankful that we can still be out supporting the community, with our members and members of our high school Key Clubs,” Jacobs said.

The club is also selling Anne Arundel County coverlets for $40, a $10 discount. All money raised goes back to the community and the club’s Teenager of the Year scholarship. Support local!
