January-2011


From Our President

2010 was a particularly difficult year for every non-profit organization in our nation due to the financial climate and

Chatsworth Kiwanis wasn't the the exception, but with the help of our motivated members we managed to grow and to give our community our support in many areas. My wish is that 2011 would be as successful or more so that the children in our beloved Chatsworth community may grow to be our leaders in Chatsworth, our country and the wold.

Chatsworth Holiday Parade & Festival

On December 12th Chatsworth Kiwanis brought to our very special community the 27th Annual Parade & Festival, filled with bands, marchers and classic cars, arts and crafts booths, food vendors among many others the event. The event took place during a sunny California winter day and put smiles in all attendants young and old. 
A November to Remember

November 2010 was a very busy month, Chatsworth Kiwanis members participated in many projects and work a great number of hours to make the holidays a very happy season for the kids of our community.


 

On November 13th the Chatsworth Kiwanis and Chatsworth High Key Club volunteered from 8am to 5pm at the North Valley Caring Services for their Hasbro Play-A-Thon to raise money for the Thanksgiving baskets giveaway program.


 

November 21st, our members Sherri Sigmon Fife and Nick Monta�o delivered 13 food baskets with all the fixings for a Thanksgiving dinner to low income families in our community.


 

Also during November member Liz Ramos delivered two DVD/VCR players and videos to the Woodland Hills Kayser Pediatric Oncology unit.
The New Kiwanis Year


The month of October marks the beginning of a new Kiwanis fiscal year and long time member Jose R.Cruz took over his second term as President of our club; and our very own Nicolas Monta�o took over Division 25.
 

But many other things happened in October, we welcomed new members (13 since October '09), we went NVCS for our monthly beautification project, we took 2nd place at the "Chatsworth Pioneer Day" thanks to Rob Cox unstoppable chili, we fed over three hundred people at the "Ride with Pride" first ever fundraiser and we beautified Lassen Ave for the second time in a year.
