Mt. Airy Kiwanis Donates School Supplies
by Bill Butts

The Mount Airy, MD Kiwanis Club was pleased to recently harvest a much larger than expected donation of school supplies in support of its Key Club at South Carroll High School. A growing number of local families and students are unable to afford basic school supplies and in response, the So. Carroll Key Club is collecting the supplies for Carroll County Public Schools to utilize as needed across the county. The Mt. Airy Kiwanis Youth Services Committee organized and coordinated the effort. Pictured are some of the club members who participated and helped with this project: (Front Row, Left to Right) Joan Collins, George Woodfield, Bob Wagner, Pat Norwood, Geri Simon, Marion Taylor, Beth Jacobs, Tom Walker, and (Back Row, Left to Right), Paul Brown, and Leo Simon. (Since it's very likely in these challenging economic times that other counties and school districts may be facing similar needs, we suggest that you investigate if a partnered effort of this type would be a worthwhile service project in your community.)
