THOUGHT/QUOTE OF THE WEEK:
What makes leadership is the ability to get people to do
   what they don't want to do and like it.
                      – Harry Truman

The Sixth Object of Kiwanis:  To cooperate in creating and maintaining that sound public opinion and high idealism, which make possible the increase of righteousness, justice, patriotism, and goodwill. 

Kiwanis Education #66:  Club bylaws set a limit of 90 minutes for a club meeting, from the time when the meeting is called to order until it is adjourned. Clubs are required to conduct meetings at least twice per month. To receive attendance credit, a member must be present for at least 60 percent of a meeting. 

This Week:  Thank you, Dennis LeBlanc, for bringing Tim and Katy Kirkpatrick to our meeting to speak with us this week.  Tim and Katy, along with Our Savior’s Church, have opened the Hope Center on South Main St., with an emphasis on helping elderly and young people.  The center has a food pantry, tutoring for kids and a health and dental clinic.  Two young people who care about what happens to the people of St. Martinville. 

Also at the meeting this week, Jean honored the February birthdays which are listed elsewhere in the bulletin.

Jean is in need of guest speakers and if anyone is available to speak or to get a speaker, please call Jean. 

Reminder:  There is the possibility of attending a board meeting at Gerry and Dennis’ house (2-21) at 7:00 p.m. Peggy Hardy is the hostess.
