Nov. 07 Vision for the new year As I embark on this new title of President it takes me back to when I was first asked to join this organization. I knew very little about Kiwanis, but there was a great bunch of folks eager to invite me into their club. These Kiwanian folks truly want to improve children s lives in the communities we serve. As President, I will attempt to follow the lead of the many great Branson Tri-Lakes Kiwanian presidents before me without leaning on them too much. I look forward to a year of growth and serving the children with my fellow Kiwanians.
