Annual Holiday Party (co-sponsored with Palatine Jaycees) – December 19, 2023
The 2023 holiday party was held at Palatine High School, with around 150 families in attendance.
Guests visited Santa and Mrs. Claus, and gifts were distributed with the help of a most friendly elf.
Guests were served pizza, ice cream and cupcakes. Games, crafts and balloon art were provided by the Jaycees, with assistance from the Spundling Junior High Builders Club.
Many thanks to all of the volunteers and participants who helped make this event so enjoyable.
Kiwanis Woods Rock Cleaning – October 28, 2023 (District Governor Service Day Project)
Kiwanis members were on hand to spiffy up the Kiwanis Woods rock at Camp Reinberg (in Deer Grove Forest Preserve in Palatine). We cleaned the rock and cleared the surrounding area to make the rock more visible to visitors.
The Kiwanis rock inscription is dated 1938, at which time Chicago area Kiwanis donated $530 for materials to build the first cabin at Camp Reinberg. The rock was recently discovered by camp staff as they performed cleanup. What a find! Hopefully the rock will spark interest in Kiwanis by campers and hikers. Further attention will be drawn to the rock in spring when native flowers are planted around it.
