Guests and prospective members are welcome to attend our meetings!

Each club meeting includes announcements and updates on projects and events, dinner, and typically a guest speaker from the community.  Past speakers have included the Wausau Police Chief, representatives from Habitat for Humanity, and the owner of the Wisconsin Woodchucks.

Not only does our club enjoy visiting other clubs in our Division and District, known as Interclubbing, but we also welcome any Kiwanians near and far to come by for a visit.

The board of directors meeting is held during the first Thursday meeting of each month immediately following our club meeting at 6:30pm.

    Although it may be the middle of winter, this meeting will look ahead to what is sure to be an exciting summer in downtown Wausau.  Our lovely town will be hosting the 2012 Kayak Junior World Championships, which according to estimates may produce over a million dollars of tourist spending to Wausau.  In addition, this is going to be an important challenge for those participating as the top competitors are likely to be going to the Olympics in 2016.  Not only will this event shine a spotlight on Central Wisconsin, but also will require a lot of helping hands.  This informational presentation is sure to spark your interest.

  • March 8, 2012-Club Excellence Survey Results & New Membership Goals
    Program Speakers: Jean Schult, Bob Voelker, and Dan Holt

    The goal of every Kiwanis club is to make a positive difference in the communities in which they serve.  Of course, in order to be successful in this endeavor, we need to periodically rank the needs versus what the club can do.  The results from our Kiwanis club's most recent survey will be reviewed, and goals will be set for us all to strive to achieve.  In addition, like most Kiwanis clubs, we need to attract more folks to lend a helping hand and ideally join our club.  Ideas will be presented, along with suggestions on how we can work together to make this happen.

  • March 22, 2012-Russia Revealed
    Guest Speaker: Gary Alexander, World Traveler

    It may be hard to believe, but over 20 years have passed since the fall of the Soviet Union.  Although Russia may not necessary be in the headlines as much as it used it, our neighbors to the west of North America have plenty of sights and traditions that they hold on to dearly.  No this won't be an undercover reveal of Russian secrets, but rather a fun look places that you may want visit if you have the opportunity to go to Russia.
