Show Bountiful Kiwanis Club marks ; ,v - . 35th anniversary with dinner BOUNTIFUL Two special events mark the 35th anniversary of the founding of the Bountiful Kiwanis Club: a focus on how to best serve the community by Utah-Idaho past district Gov. Bernard M. Tanner, and a 35th anniversary dinner. The dinner is scheduled April 25, 7 p.m. at the China Platter restaurant. Founder's Day banquet chairman is Leigh Van Dyke, Bountiful Kiwanis' first president. The "pep" talk at the regular Tuesday meeting of the Bountiful Kiwanis was given by Tanner, who is assistant Utah Attorney General and has been in the attorney at-torney general's office 20 years. He was recently named nam-ed by Kiwanis International to serve on the worldwide committee on administration for 1991-92. Kiwanis needs to continue to grow to best serve communities, Tanner said, and advised members to tell about Kiwanis and to invite men and women to join in community service through Kiwanis. "Then," he said, "as we serve to make a difference, we-will grow.' He urged members to "improve meetings," make then enjoyable, "make them the best show in town." Drawing on statistics, nationally and for Utah-Idaho, he pointed out that we are "on a growth pattern, but we need to be personally involved and to reach more prospective pro-spective Kiwanians. For individuals, he stressed, benefits are improving communication skills, writing, speaking, reading, listening and conducting meetings. Also, a Kiwanian learns to see long-term benefits from short-term actions and he or she learns judgmental and delegation skills, backed by ethical soundness. , . |
