Water Buffalo drivers wanted
Posted by Larry Walters
Larry Walters is getting a head start on next year's pancake breakfast.
 
He is looking for a person or persons who would volunteer to help fill up and pull a water buffalo the morning of each of the breakfasts, delivering it to the Depot.  You would need a pickup truck (he estimates a model 1500 or higher).  A great way to observe the beautiful southeastern Wyoming morning sunrise, since you would have a 4 am show time. Please contact Larry with your offer of help.
October is Pink Shirt Month
Posted by Robert Gross
Get out your pink shirts for October meetings, since October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
New Initiation Fee
The Board voted to increase the initiation fee from $96 to $125 at last Tuesday's meeting. The increase is necessary to cover costs incurred as a result of a new Kiwanis International dues schedule and increases in costs for elements of the new member package. This change is effective immediately.
Friday Food Bag Schedules
Posted by Thomas Roberts on Sep 08, 2021
Bag Fill Schedule (as of Aug 23, 2021):

The bag fills for the 2021-2022 year will be held each Tuesday at 5:30 p.m. starting August 24. Due to COVID-related reasons, we will limit the bag fills to 25 people in the warehouse.

Received from Tom Roberts on 9/8/2021:

The Friday Food Bag Board has suggested the following Saturday dates for unpackings for the 2021-2022 school year. The dates are subject to change if food deliveries are delayed:
 
     October 2nd; November 6th; December 4th; January 8th; February 5th; March 5th; April 2nd; May 7th.
 
Each filling and unpacking will be at 9 a.m. at the FFBF storeroom at 600 East Carlson, north side of the Element Church building.

Thankful Thursday - Nov 11
Posted by Robin Mosley
Great News! Thankful Thursdays are up and running for another season and Kiwanis of Cheyenne was lucky to make the cut again. Please save November 11th, Veterans Day to come out and show your support by volunteering for a fun short shift or bringing your wallet and getting some fantastic auction items.
 
Which you can also help collect to make sure they're fantastic! In the Download Files of this homepage, you will find a donation form. Please go see 3 of your favorite places and ask if they can help at all this year. Things may be tight and it's going to take all of us going out and collecting.
 
Perhaps put up a few days at your condo in Costa Rica for auction. A week at your casa in Mexico. Maybe a stay at your villa in Tuscany. That kind of thing. 
 
Thank you in advance for all the time and support you give! 
 
If you have any questions feel free to reach out. 307-287-5613 or robin@onedgepro.com.
Wanted: Co-chair for Pancake Flippers
Rob Kilian is looking for someone to co-chair the pancake flippers next year. He has filled this role for 15 years now and would like to move on to other endeavors. Contact him with your offer to help.
Propane Tank Users
Club/committee members who need propane tanks for their project area asked to first use partially full tanks, before they start a new one. Why? The fill charge for each tank, whether it is partially full or empty, makes no difference, is $75 per tank. The charge is a flat rate, with no proportional credit for topping off a partially full tank. It cost in the neighborhood of $825 when the tanks were last topped off, and much of that went toward topping off partially full tanks.
 
So, if you need propane, take and use a partially full tank and, if you think that may not be enough, take a full tank as a backup.
 
Your cooperation is appreciated by the Club's budget.
Equipment Loan Policies
For the information of everyone who would like to loan out Kiwanis Club-owned equipment, please see the Download Files section to the left of this homepage and comply with the policy stated therein. The general ground rules and necessary loan request/maintenance fee sheet and indemnification form are included in this file.  Only requests accompanied by fully completed paperwork will be considered. This includes listing the stovetender, transportation and food you have arranged, and other considerations that must be made for the project to work.  The Quartermaster does not have the time to do all of the ground work for you. Your cooperation is appreciated.
