Long Island South Central Clubs

Long Island South Central Division July divisional hosted by the Kiwanis Club of Merrick and Kiwanis Club of the Bellmores

It was an inspiring evening of service and community spirit. We were honored to have New York District Kiwanis Pediatric Trauma Center President DPG Joe Corace join us. He shared vital updates about the center and recognized several clubs with banner patches, along with presenting a plaque to LTG Marianne Adrian. Our division was proud to make a donation to support the incredible work of the KPTC.

We also heard from Governor Elect Martin Valk regarding the upcoming District Convention in Corning, and we were treated to a fantastic presentation by the NY BBQ Brigade. We truly appreciate their dedication to making a positive impact through community engagement and their amazing work with the universal language of barbecue. Thank you for preparing our wonderful dinner tonight! You can learn more about their mission here: www.nybbqbrigade.org/

We are so excited to see our local youth head off to Kamp Kiwanis this Sunday! A special thank you to New York District Kiwanis Foundation Secretary DPLG Kim Scharoff for sharing the latest updates on all the wonderful experiences waiting for them in Taberg, NY. If you'd like to help send our sponsored Kampers off with a smile, please join us at the Hempstead Town Hall on Sunday morning. It’s going to be an unforgettable week for these students!
