| About our Club | Our Next Meeting | ||
The Kiwanis Club of Mount Washington Valley began in 1975 when twenty valley residents decided there was a need for another service club in the region. Today we are over 55 members and still growing. Four of our founding members remain active. Our local club mission statement reads: The mission of the Kiwanis Club of Mount Washington Valley is to make our community a better place in which to live by engaging adult and youth volunteers to support community service projects with an emphasis on the needs of our children. Club members work primarily for the benefit of our local community, but also contribute to regional Kiwanis projects like the Kiwanis Pediatric Trauma Institute in Boston and the world wide service project to eliminate IDD (Iodine Deficiency Disorder), the world’s leading preventable cause of mental retardation.

Click the Train to Buy Tickets for the Kiwanis Autumn Express Oct. 17 We hope to welcome you aboard the Kiwanis Autumn Express on Friday, October 17th to raise funds to benefit Camp Sunshine in Casco, Maine. Camp Sunshine, long affiliated with Kiwanis International, provides respite, support, joy and hope to children with life-threatening illnesses and their immediate families through various stages of a child’s illness.
The day will be filled with great food, gifts, history and fabulous views of foilage in the mountains. We hope Kiwanis Clubs from all over New England will join us. Go to www.conwayscenic.com and click on Events to become part of this great event. We depart from Conway, NH at 11 a.m. and return at 5:30 p.m.
Travel aboard this unique excursion train with family and friends and enjoy some of the finest natural scenery in the East. Our excursion will travel through spectacular Crawford Notch - past sheer bluffs, steep ravines, cascading brooks and streams, panoramic mountain vistas, and across the famed Frankenstein Trestle and Willey Brook Bridge - enroute to Crawford Depot. Relive a legend written in the annals of railroad history while raising money for Camp Sunshine.
