April Service Day and Health Fair Re-Cap

April 12th was a day of SERVICE provided by our local Kiwanis club and the Preston High School student body and staff. The day of service was a great success with everyone participating as planned. The club members who did all of the leg work for the High School in preparation for this event did a great job, along with those in attendance that day serving after service snacks of cookies and water. Thank you Molly, Amy and Jennifer along with their children Karlie, Malia, and Addison for helping serve over 650 high school students. Some of the service included the following:
Cleaning up Benson Park and Oneida Stake Academy
Helping out at Heritage Home
Removing x-mas lights from State Street
Cleaning Franklin Park
Helping out at the FCMC Nursing Home
Cleaning up local recreational hot-spots


April 16th was the FCMC annual Health Fair. Our Kiwanis club sponsored two booths. One to introduce the community to the "Eliminate" program, along with getting to know our local Kiwanis chapter and what we do in our community. The other booth was dedicated to bike safety, specifically the proper use and wear of helmets. It was well attended and everyone loved Dr. Curtis's jello mold of the human brain * Awesome*. Thank you Jake and Jamie Curtis, Cameron and Amy Whitehead, Shauna Jacobsen, Carolyn Rounds and Mika Lords for all of your help to make this event a success.
