🍬 No tricks, just more treats! 🍬

Our Kiwanians had a spook-tacular time at Downtown Escanaba's Trunk or Treat! 👻 From creative costumes to smiling faces, we loved being part of an afternoon filled with Halloween fun and community spirit!

And guess what? We're not done treating just yet! 🍭

This Friday, we're teaming up with the Bay College TRIO team for another round of Halloween fun at Bay College's Trunk or Treat!

📅 Friday, October 23
⏰ 4:30–6:30 p.m.
📍 Bay College JHUC parking lot

We love any opportunity to come together for the kids in our community, and this time we're bringing some extra helping hands (and candy)!

🧡 Stop by our trunk, show off those costumes, and say hello. We can't wait to see you!

💙 Celebrating another year of service! 💙

On Monday night, the Escanaba Kiwanis Club gathered for our annual dinner; a night to share a meal, reminisce about the year behind us, and celebrate the people who make this club what it is.

We were proud to welcome new members Cory Gray and Martanna Schroeder to the Kiwanis family, and we took a moment to recognize two members whose dedication speaks for itself:

👏🏻 Warren Isaacson — 50 years of service
👏🏻 Dennis Pearson — 45 years of service

That kind of commitment is pretty special. And honestly, we're not sure there's enough cake to celebrate 95 combined years of Kiwanis service. 😉

Looking back, the numbers from this past year tell a pretty great story, too:

⏰ 492 service hours across 20 activities
🙋 19 Kiwanis members serving alongside 59 guest volunteers
💰 $22,936.09 donated to 32 causes

Those numbers represent filling Christmas baskets with St. Vincent de Paul, feeding the athletes and spectators at the Special Olympics basketball game, cleaning up along M-35, running the Spring Expo, and finding all kinds of ways to serve the children and families in our community.

To every Kiwanian who gave an hour, organized an event, showed up early, stayed late, or simply asked, “how can I help?” — and to the 59 friends and community members who volunteered with us this year — thank you for jumping in and being part of the work.

Here's to another year of serving, laughing, eating, occasionally getting a little messy, and making a difference together. 🎉

Congrats to all officers and leadership on a great year and cheers to being retired officially at midnight tonight!

Special thanks to Governor Paul Shrode on an excellent year of service leading the Wisconsin Upper Michigan District!

🍁 Leaf-ing it better than we found it 🍁

Over the weekend, our Kiwanians geared up with safety vests and trash pickers and headed back out to our stretch of M-35 in Ford River for our fall highway cleanup.

There’s something pretty special about having people who are willing to give their time to take care of the place we call home. And we’re especially grateful for Dennis Pearson, whose passion for this project and willingness to organize it keeps this tradition going. 💙

To Dennis and all of our cleanup crew: thank you for showing up, pitching in, and leaf-ing our corner of the U.P. a little better than you found it. That’s what service is all about.

🍂 We’ll see you out there again in the spring!

🍁 Leaf-ing it bet

Yesterday, Kiwanians showed up with pride to present a $500 donation to the Northern Lights YMCA – Delta Center Capital Campaign, and left feeling more inspired than ever about what's coming for our community.

We were honored to be welcomed by Associate Executive Director Caron Salo, who gave us an inside look at the progress on the new Aquatics Center, a tour of the Delta Center, and some wonderful history about this incredible facility. It is clear that this project is something truly special for Escanaba and the surrounding area.

The Northern Lights YMCA is currently in the final stretch of their campaign, and right now, every dollar is being DOUBLED thanks to the Daniel J. Kobasic Foundation Matching Challenge. They have met over 90% of their goal, and your gift today has twice the impact. 💪

We are so proud to be a small part of something this big. This is exactly the kind of investment that makes our community a place worth showing up for.

👉 Ready to help close the gap? Make your gift today:
