My first remembrance about Kiwanis is when I attended my grandfathers Kiwanis club luncheon in San Bernardino at the age of 12 and believe it or not I still have his lapel pin. I have served as a member of the John Muir High School Key Club in Pasadena in High School; joined the Glendora Kiwanis Club in January 1963 and was sponsored by Walt Hodges; in 1966 I transferred my

membership to the Pico Rivera Kiwanis Club because I was appointed the manager of the Pico Rivera Chamber of Commerce; in 1971 I transferred my membership back to the Glendora Kiwanis Club when I went to work for the City of Glendora. I have served on the Kiwanis Board of Directors numerous times as Club Secretary and Treasurer, Vice President, bulletin editor and in 1981 I served as Club President. During my tenure as Club Secretary, I was admonished by Senior member Gene Beckwith because my monthly activity reports to the Lt.

Fun FactsFun FactsFun Facts The first Kiwanis club was

organized in Detroit, Michigan, on January 21, 1915. In 1962, worldwide

expansion was approved, and today Kiwanis clubs

are active in every part of the world.

Kiwanis was coined from an American Indian phrase

“Nunc Kee-wanis,” which means, “we trade” or

“we share our talents.”

Kiwanis is one of the few organizations that offers membership to almost all

age groups.

Service is at the heart of every Kiwanis club,

no matter where in the world it’s located.

No two Kiwanis clubs look exactly the same. Clubs

should reflect their communities and their

members and should work to meet their needs.

Flexibility is key to a

successful club.

Member Spotlight Cont. . . Meeting Details Cont. . . If you guessed none other than Glendora’s Mr. Historian Culver Heaton, you would be correct. Fun Facts for Glendora’s very own Historian Glendora Kiwanis Club back in the day: Met for lunch at the Glendora Women's club and lunch was $1.75.

Most fines were 25 or 50 cents and a $5 fine was unheard of.

A fancy banquet dinner was $2.50.

Club membership was around $100, suit and ties were expected on most occasions, and fines were collected mostly in "silver" and copper.

Back then members had to watch their seat because if a member made the mistake of standing up or leaving their “oh so comfortable” metal folding chair the chances were very good that when you sat back down there would be a VERY WET paper napkin waiting to greet your bottom, and their was absolutely no pity for the unfortunate member who was then forced to return to work with a big wet spot on the seat of his trousers and then add in the occasional wet spit wads observed flying through the air. Alas everything has its time and in 1971 all this fun and mischief ceased when the club moved to the fancy upholstered chairs at the Glendora Country Club.

Over the years Culver and the Club have been involved in lots of community projects including: organizing the annual Easter Sunrise Service on the athletic field of Brown Military Academy (now Church of the Open Door), constructing the 12 ton concrete cross on the hill which still stands, sponsored the Easter Egg Hunt in Finkbiner park starting in 1963, constructed exercise platforms in West Oaks Grove Park, helped build the restroom building at Gladstone Park, participated in reforestation planting of baby trees in the Angeles Forest, led community "clean up" project, was lead group for raising funds to build the Band Shell in West Oaks Grove park, and serve food on Halloween night and Snow Day's in Finkbiner Park. In more recent years Culver and his wife Wanda have been volunteers for the Barton reading program coaches. Culver has been a member of Kiwanis for over the past 53 years. He has sponsored numerous new members into the club many who remain with us today, and lets be honest he has even hunted down some newbies that initially couldn't be

active and brought them back into the folds. He has served as a mentor, a historian and for many a friend. He has always preached of the Kiwanis journey, the friends, bonds and connections you will forged and the benefit received will be in direct proportion to the time and effort each of us are willing to devote to the club, community and its projects and programs. Thank You Culver, for all you have done for Kiwanis and the Glendora community throughout the years.

Patriotism Banner Patch

Initiated in 2006-07 by Lt. Governor Rona Lunde

Purpose: Increase patriotic spirit of Kiwanis

Club Members

Ways a Club can display patriotism:

To encourage more members to assist with

voter registration and poll working.

To encourage more members to vote.

To help members understand the symbolic

relevance of our national symbols and

heroes.

To educate members about historic facts

related to American patriotism, freedom and

liberty.

To encourage members to think about

patriotism for five minutes at each meeting.

Ways to Earn Points Validate that three club members have assisted with voter registration. Validate that three club members have worked

as precinct poll workers. Validate that 80% of club members eligible to

vote, voted in a local, state, or national election. Donate flags or funds to secure new American

flags for an entity in town that will fly it. Collect old flags and turn them over to the Boy

Scouts for retirement. Assist with toy collection for families whose

head of household is serving abroad in the military or lend financial assistance to the project. Write two patriotic articles either of historic

fact or recount a club member’s personal patriotic moment for the club’s newsletter. Sing a patriotic song at every club meeting –

two verses. Give a mini lesson on patriotism after the singing of a patriotic song. Schedule two club programs focused on some

form of patriotism. Sponsor a patriotic art contest for the local

schools and display the work in the local library. Assist with Constitution Week activities at your

local school district. Participate in My Soldier email

pen pal program. Lets show our support for our men

and women serving in

our military forces, it

is because of their

dedication and

sacrifices that we are

able to enjoy

our freedoms.

Patriot Day falls on September 11, commonly

known as ‘Nine-Eleven’ and is remembered globally as the anniversary of the catastrophic

terrorist attacks on the USA of September 11,

2001.

Embedded in the memories of everyone who lived through it, this was the

day four jet planes were hijacked and crashed into the New York World

Trade Center and the Pentagon in Arlington, Virginia, causing the deaths

of 2,977 people. The fourth plane, United Airlines Flight 93, was directed

at Washington DC, but its passengers bravely attempted to take back control and it crashed into a field

near Shanksville, Pennsylvania.

The large majority of those lost after the attacks on the Twin Towers were working at or above the

points of collision; thousands of people who had gone to work that morning like every other day, found

themselves suddenly stranded at the top of a burning skyscraper. A number made the choice to jump

from the flaming buildings rather than wait to be caught by the flames or for the building to collapse. No

one could forget the terrifying and heartbreaking stories and images captured by the news

footage of the day.

In the wake of the World Trade Center collisions, many brave men and women from the emergency services risked their lives to try to help rescue victims of the attacks, and of them 411 lost their own lives attempting to fight fires and rescue people.

Patriot Day is recognized by US law as the official day of remembrance for these tragic events, and has

been observed every year since. Each year on this day, American flags are flown at half-staff to honor

and commemorate those lives lost. The US President asks fellow Americans to observe a moment of silence at 8.46 a.m. (Eastern Daylight Time), the time of the first plane collision into the North Tower of

the World Trade Center.

While the events took place within the USA, the shock and grief experienced in response to the

attacks was shared across the globe, and for this reason Patriot Day will be observed not only in America, but all over the world.
