The Kiwanis Club of Florence Oregon is a little more than a quarter century old. It meets every Wednesday at noon at the Elks Club. Club President is Rob Spooner. The real president-elect is Wendy Farley, who was planning to be president during the current year but got called to active military duty in late spring. Rob Spooner was moved ahead one year in the planned succession and Wendy will now follow him for the 2008-2009 year if all goes according to plan. Kathleen Margerum is now vice-president and will be president in 2009-2010.
The Florence club has a 501(c)(3)foundation which has accumulated a large amount of money by Kiwanis club standards. As a comparison, the Pacific NW district has a foundation with assets of about $50 per active member in the district. Florence has about $3000 for each active member in the club. One of the challenges facing the club is how best to use this money for the greatest good in the community.
