Festival of Lights

On Wed December 3rd several of our members braved the cold weather and handed out candy canes to families who drove through the light display at Sawmill Creek in Huron. Here are a few of the photos from the event. Some are a little blurry. Thanks to everyone who participated again this year. More photos are available on our main site. http://www.sanduskykiwanis.org/.










Veggie U

Lauren Berlekamp was our speaker on Tuesday December 2nd. She spoke about VeggieU. Veggie U is a non profit located at the Culinary Vegetable Institute in Milan, Oh. The program is designed to teach 4th graders the importance of diet and nutrition by showing them how to plant, grow, harvesting plants then eating what they have grown. It is currently being used in over 1400 classrooms and 24 states. Veggie U wants to promote the well being of children by helping them make wise food choices by teaching them hands on about agriculture. More information is available at http://www.veggieu.org/. You can also volunteer to help. Contact Lauren Berlekamp 419-499-7500 ext 119 for more information.
