the kiwanis club of grand cayman kiwanis news 28, 2010 · santa will once again arrive at owen...

Santa will once again

arrive at Owen Roberts Air-

port on December 4th to dis-

tribute gifts to up to 800

needy children in Grand Cay-

man.

For the first time, it

is also difficult for us as a club

to predict how many children

will be at the event since the

changes to the immigration

law have meant a reduction in

the number of “families” in

the Cayman Islands on work

permit. Of course, many kids

will arrive from Jamaica to

visit a parent or other family

resident here and so planning

is difficult.

Chairman and IPP

Mario Barrett and his commit-

tee have decided to allow for

800 gifts. If there is a surplus

they can be stored at SAVPO,

the old Savannah Post Office

which we now have as a stor-

age unit for the BookMobile,

Santa Landing and Key Lead-

er materials and equipment.

There are many

things which make a success-

ful Santa Landing and a won-

derful way to close out our

year of service, although the

BookMobile will still have

one Saturday session before

Christmas. Here is a list of

the activities for which we

need great support from our

members and the Key Clubs,

Builders Clubs and Circle K.

P Wiekert and Ki-

waniBike Chair Monique

supported by PP Paul wel-

comed representatives from

Cayman Heart Fund to ac-

cept a cheque for

CI$3,288.40 which is half of

the proceeds from Ki-

waniBike after expenses.

Mrs Suzy Soto accepted the

cheque on behalf of CHF

and Sue Rajah the CHF ad-

ministrator was also there.

K Monique also

presented awards plaques to

(a) Michelle Miller and

Mary Anne Kosa of Phoenix

Construction who won the

overall trophy for most

funds raised per employee,

(b) Tina Stanford and Re-

bekah Gibson for the most

funds raised by an organisa-

tion—CI$690, and (c) Emily

Randall and David Kay of

PriceWaterhouseCoopers for

the largest team of riders—

14 in all.

Correspondence has

been received from many

riders saying how much they

enjoyed the event, despite

the headwind which made

the ride more difficult than

usual and the 21 miles seem

more like 30 miles.

Chair Monique has

a great new foundation to

build on for next year’s Ki-

waniBike and will have

many suggestions from this

year’s riders to increase both

the party atmosphere and the

fund-raising aspects.

BOOKMOBILE This Saturday If you have

not listened to a young

child attempt to read to

you at George Town

Primary, you are miss-

ing out on one of the

greatest privileges that

we, as Kiwanis mem-

bers, receive—the

ability to help a child grow their education so that all

through school and the remainder of their lives, things

will be just that bit easier.

We need as many as possible this Saturday

since a few of our regulars are unavoidably not able

to attend.

So please get out to George Town Primary

for at least an hour between 10am and 1pm on Satur-

day and be a Kiwanian—help to change a child for

the better.

SMU Circle K is an unusual club

since it experiences high mem-

bership turnover due to the short

period of secondment of students

to the Cayman Islands—

typically two years. The club is

active in the BookMobile

programme. SMU members

assist in ensuring improved

reading skills of the George

Town Primary students by

leading sessions in which

children read rather than just

passively listen to an adult

reading. In addition the club has

done work with Bonaventure

Boys Home and with the Hu-

mane Society.

St Ignatius Builders Club is

hosting a Food For Fitness

competition between schools

Nov 15 to Dec 15. For every

pound lost, a pound of food is

donated to the local food bank.

For example, if the St. Ignatius

Team together loses 15lbs. of

weight, then 15lbs of food will

be donated to Red Cross by

SIBC. Thanks to Ray Singh

the challenge will end with a

roller skating party on Dec. 15

from 6:30-8:30pm at Kings

Roller Rink.

The six permanent Objects of Kiwanis International

were approved by Kiwanis club delegates at the 1924

International Convention in Denver, Colorado. Through the decades,

they have remained unchanged.

To give primacy to the human and spiritual rather than to the

material values of life.

To encourage the daily living of the Golden Rule in all human

relationships.

To promote the adoption and the application of higher social,

business, and professional standards.

To develop, by precept and example, a more intelligent, aggres-

sive, and serviceable citizenship.

To provide, through Kiwanis clubs, a practical means to form

enduring friendships, to render altruistic service, and to build

better communities.

To cooperate in creating and maintaining that sound public opin-

ion and high idealism which make possible the increase of right-

eousness, justice, patriotism, and goodwill.
