Kiwanis Club of Clarksville, TN

Members Brad Pavlik (President-Elect), Larry Schmidt (1st VP-Elect), Christopher Lanier (Lt. Governor-Elect) and Juliette Roake (Administrative Secretary) attended the Kentucky Tennessee District of Kiwanis International District Convention in Gatlinburg, TN. We attended workshops, participated in games and fellowship with others from the district, had free time, attended board meetings and general sessions. It was an informative DCON and we are looking to a productive year serving the children of the community.

Kiwanis is a global organization of volunteers, dedicated to improving the world, one child and one community at a time.

We were glad to partner with Yaipak and hand out socks to all of the children

The Kiwanis Club of Clarksville was involved with the Clarksville-Montgomery County School System Back-to-School Block Party hosted at Kenwood High School. Over 2000 children were given over 6,000 pairs of socks. Vendors from all over gathered and the children enjoyed face painting, haircuts, shaved ice, bouncy houses, learned about reaources in our community, etc. One of our board members had heard about this event at a school board meeting. After finding out shoes were donated, we could fill the need for socks. Through our partnership with Yaipak, we made this happen in short order. Kiwanians Mark and Rhana Hackett, Joe Smith, Michael Lankford, and Chris Lanier served. Jeff Burkhart, Jamie Peltz, Joshua Beal, Conner Noe, Carrie, Emily and Bowman Lanier also came to help after hearing what we were trying to make happen. It was a great event with local vendors as the children of CMCSS get prepared to go back to school in the coming weeks. Our mission statement is: “Kiwanis is a global organization of volunteers dedicated to improving the world one child and one community at a time”.

What an incredible day! For today’s program, we celebrated Deputy Speaker Curtis Johnson’s amazing 20 year career in the State Legislation. His contributions to not only Clarksville/Montgomery County but to the entire State of Tennessee have been an immeasurable boon of positive change for the residents who call it home. Secretary of State Tre Hargett, Comptroller Jason Mumpower, and State Treasurer David Lillard all spoke of Representative Johnson’s friendship and amazing professional acumen. In attendance were Mayors Joe Pitts and Wes Golden, as well as a number of other elected officials. We wish Deputy Speaker Curtis Johnson all the best of health and happiness in his upcoming retirement and look forward to seeing him at more meetings in the future!

What a day! We were blessed to hear from Clarksville’s own favorite legal personality, the esteemed Kevin Kennedy. He gave an incredible message on success, hard work, and faith and we want to offer our sincerest thanks to him and all he does for our great community!

As we wrap up this year’s Kentucky Tennessee District of Kiwanis International Mid-Year Conference, we are reminded of Kiwanis International’s mission:
“Kiwanis is a global organization of volunteers dedicated to improving the world one child and one community at a time. “
Thank you to Christopher Lanier and our administrative assistant, Juliette Roake for attending and representing our club. They attended workshops and breakout sessions to strengthen our abilities to serve the children of the community.

We had an amazing presentation by Jeff Faris, Austin Peay Football head coach! Thanks to him and his incredible staff for doing their part in making APSU successful!

Yesterday Michael Johansen and Christopher Lanier attended the Division 15 Key Club Spring Zone Rally along with our administrative secretary, Juliette Roake. They represented our club as we co-sponsor, along with Kiwanis Club of Hilldale, Clarksville, many Key Clubs in the High Schools and sponsor Circle K within Middle College at APSU. They voted on who will run for election at their Key Club District Convention next month. We also interviewed students for the Key Leader award. The Kiwanis Club of Clarksville supports the youth of Clarksville in this manner to allow them to serve, volunteer and lead in our community and proud to continue this relationship. Learn more about Key Club by having your high school student ask their administrators or visit keyclub.org.

Blessed today to have Major General (Retired) Walt Lord here to speak to us today on the massive efforts Austin Peay is making to provide world-class education to veterans and military-affiliated students. We also would like to offer our welcome to our two newest members, Jay Bailey and Jonathan Glasgow!
