May 25, 2010 Kiwanis One Day Project

The secretary of the Kiwanis Club, William T. Johnson,  told the club at its meeting May 25 of his experience with one of the club's projects last month. He told them that Kiwanis One Day is a world-wide project of Kiwanis International in which all clubs are expected to select and carry out some local project on the same day, April 10. He told how the club had been asked by Marcia Campbell to help with the Garden Design project at the Robert Toombs House in the absence of state funds, had contributed $25, and had thereby learned a good site for its Kiwanis One Day project. Johnson explained how club president Sherry Hudson had asked Ed Geddings to be in charge of the project and that Ed had obtained county help in digging up the hard ground of the three planting beds involved in the project. He told how the project came off on April 10th, with nine Kiwanians showing up to prepare the three planting beds with brown paper, mulch, and bricks, as well as to service the front walk with pruning and fertilizer.
