Today we gathered for our annual Kiwanis luncheon to celebrate a year of service, leadership, and impact. 💙💛
During the meeting, we reflected on our accomplishments, shared updates on our service projects, elected our 26’-27’ club leaders and were honored to share our Distinguished Status for the 2024–2025 year from our district.
We also recognized one of our incredible Key Clubs faculty advisor, with a well-deserved award for her dedication and support of one of our sponsored youth programs.
Lastly we really loved hearing from the leaders of @cedarshs_keyclub as they shared highlights from their Key Club year and their experiences at LEDCON as our club helped sponsor their attendance!
Thank you to everyone who helped make this year a success so far! & Thank you to @casachapala for hosting us! We can’t wait to continue serving our community together!
Our 4th and final Butterfly Festival with @winnpta at Winn Montessori Elementary was one to remember 🦋💛
The Kiwanis Club of Silicon Hills loved partnering with such an amazing school to give students the chance to experience live butterflies up close, enjoy a free lunch - hotdogs fresh off the grill 🌭and get creative with fun crafts.
We were also excited to welcome 4 incredible UT Austin CKI members who volunteered their time and helped bring the butterfly exhibit to life; your support made a difference!
Moments like these remind us why we do what we do; community, connection, and creating memories that last. 🦋
