y year as Governor has not gone anything like I had envisioned or planned for myself, the clubs, or the district. As I sit here and reflect on how this year has played out, I start to think about the silver lining within the cloud of fear and uncertainty that the COVID-19 pandemic has created for us all. One of the things that come to mind is how clubs and the district have had to make changes and to adapt to meeting virtually rather than in person. This has forced those of us (myself included) to think outside the box, to embrace change, and to embrace technology. I have thought numerous times, “How would our clubs have survived if it weren’t for the technology that is available to us all?”. Some clubs are slowly beginning to meet in person and are also broadcasting their meetings virtually for those members who are not comfortable yet meeting in larger groups. This is also a great way for busy, working members to still be able to be a part of a club meeting. I would like to encourage clubs to continue to do this once the pandemic is over to give those younger, super busy members the option to attend a club meeting without having to physically be there. Thinking outside the box…..Making changes for the good of the club and its members…. Fundraisers have been canceled because of the pandemic. But maybe, just maybe it was time to take a look at a fundraiser that is not producing the funds that it once did and come up with something new and refreshing. Change. While the pandemic has forced us to cancel my visits to most of the regions, another silver lining is that technology has given me the opportunity to visit more clubs, divisions, and regions online, any day of the week and any time of day. While it is not the same as meeting in person, it still gives us the opportunity to meet. Sometimes things that we have no control over will make us look at things differently, re-evaluate what we have been doing or how we have been doing something. Making changes as the world around us is changing. Change can be a scary but good thing.

The Most Recent Coronavirus Update from Kiwanis International
"July 15, 2020— Kiwanis International acknowledges some communities are reopening and Kiwanis clubs have started meeting or will begin meeting shortly. Kiwanis International does not mandate meeting guidelines; however, Kiwanis requires clubs follow WHO, CDC, state and local guidelines for public gatherings. For Kiwanis clubs that meet in restaurants and venues, Kiwanis urges you to meet with the facility to understand all guidelines for public meetings. These guidelines include, but are not limited to, social distancing, wearing face masks, and adhering to maximum number of people who can meet in gatherings." - https://www.kiwanis.org/news/covid-19/

The first Kiwanis Club in what is now the Texas-Oklahoma District, was officially completed February 10, 1917, at Dallas, Texas, with a membership of 200. Due to the increasing number of clubs across the country members realized the need of setting up the District organization. In October 1918, the Dallas Club selected one of its members to serve as interim Governor of the Texas-Oklahoma District until an organization conference could be arranged. The first meeting was in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and on February 10, 1919, the Texas-Oklahoma District was organized.

YOUTH PROTECTION Harold Darling presented the annual Youth Protection Program to the Cleburne Kiwanis Club. As a provider of youth service clubs and programs, Kiwanis holds its members to a high standard of conduct and awareness. Kiwanis sponsors youth leadership programs like Key Club and Builders Club and works with youth through activities and projects. Kiwanians must know how to protect youth and our organization. This is accomplished through a secure environment with annual training and biannual background checks.

A new district project created by Marshall Kregel, TX OK Kiwanis District Marketing Chair 2019-2020.
he Texas Oklahoma Kiwanis District is venturing into new territory as they do their best to compose a District Coloring Book. This project is led by our Marketing Director, Marshall Kregel. He was inspired by a small coloring book produced by Charles Gugliuzza, which has now been printed over 50,000 times. Marshall's idea for a coloring book series revolves around the need to increase exposure to all the great things we do. To get this project into production Marshall created a Coloring Book Committee to help aid in the process. Together with his team ideas began flooding in on what type of designs should be included, our outreach, and even variety in languages. In order to produce authentic designs to commemorate our mission, the committee sought out help from Key Clubbers. Thus, the Coloring Book Contest was created! The contest allows Key Clubbers to enter their very own designs. By entering this contest Key Club students are given a chance to have their designs selected for print, win $10 per design chosen, and even culminate 2 service hours per design submitted. After researching the process and collecting designs, the first coloring book is underway (both in English and Spanish)! Designs have been chosen and a draft is currently in process for printing! With the aid of Sponsors, this coloring book will be available at a very low cost for clubs to purchase. This is a fantastic addition to well known Kiwanis service projects such as backpacks for education and even disaster relief projects.

aturday, June 13th found 24 Kiwanians, spouses and friends gathered at the Tyler-Rose City Kiwanis’ K-Barn determined to see each other face-to-face and perform service projects. Armed with weed eaters several of the men attacked the overgrown fence line along the road while the rest of the club set up an assembly line system to fill one hundred “disaster” backpacks for our own Piney Woods Region 7. Each volunteer took a backpack and went down the assembly line filling it with the supplies needed to be dictated by whether it was a woman or man’s backpack. When the first volunteer got about 7 feet down the line the next volunteer started filling a backpack on the opposite side of the assembly line, thus maintaining social distancing. This project is a collaborative effort starting with the TX/OK District from who the backpacks and supplies may be ordered. Several clubs in the Region 7 area sent money to be used to purchase the items filling the backpacks. Tyler-Rose City Club volunteered space in the K-Barn to store the packs. Should a disaster strike anywhere in our region, a team of Kiwanians will transport the packs to that location. Last year when the small town of Alto was hit with a tornado and many lost their homes a team of Region 7 Kiwanians took backpacks to the shelter set up in an Alto church. The disaster coordinators were most astonished and appreciative as not only were the packs full of essential items needed but also the recipients had a good strong backpack in which to keep their belongings. This is an ongoing project. All clubs in the region are asked to keep funding in their club budgets for this project. The one hundred packs are a good start for the year but as hurricane season approaches we need to be ready to help as many families as possible. As Kiwanians and friends worked on the backpacks another group took used American flags from our flag program and folded them to place in display cases. After placing engraved brass plates on the display boxes the club will present them to community first responders, leaders, and businesses that have made a real difference during this pandemic. Following all the work, the club grilled some hot dogs and hamburgers and managed to put away potato salad, baked beans, chips, cookies, and scrumptious cupcakes. It was great to see everyone AND get in some service projects.

plano kiwanis club DURING A PANDEMIC SUBMITTED BY Jeanette Kelley
Plano Kiwanis is participating in #NTxGiving Day for the second year with a profile to set the times. Food donations are done on a major level to Plano Food Pantries, support for ongoing scholarships through the Plano Community Forum, and a proposed new initiative for reading skills. We see the need in our community and want to be part of the response.www.NorthTexasGivingDay.org/planokiwanisfoundation will help us be there for kids at risk during this national emergency. 2020 for some has meant a call for a national day of reckoning for racial justice and for others the worse public health crises in 100 years. Where does Kiwanis fit in this world? For Plano Kiwanis the mission for the last 50 years is to assist in supporting all Plano children to read and grow and be all they aspire to be. We have made a donation for bilingual books to jump-start the love of reading. Then the pandemic hit all of us especially the kids. Seek out our profile at North Texas Giving Day to help us with ongoing programs.
The Kiwanis Club of Jones, Oklahoma DISC GOLF SUBMITTED BY KELLY POLAND
The Kiwanis Club of Jones, Oklahoma recently completed a 9-hole Disc Golf course in the local city park. Disc Golf is a sport similar to regular golf but uses a disc similar to a frisbee to attempt to hit a target basket. Planned prior to the COVID-19 event, installing 9 target baskets became imperative for the community to be able to get outside and enjoy themselves. The disc course is located at the city park that was planned, purchased, built, and donated to the City of Jones by the Kiwanis Club of Jones. Known locally as the place to go when help is needed, the Jones Kiwanis Club is proud to once again be a part of improving their community.
Kiwanis Club of Bartlesville, OK Sooner Jr. Miniature Golf Course SUBMITTED BY Konrad Brandemuhl
Kiwanis Club of Bartlesville has been responsible for the fireworks event on July 4th for the local community since 2002. Normally, Freedom Fest is a 3-4 hour festival with the fireworks as the finale, however due to Covid-19, the club elected to forego the festival and only perform the fireworks show. Also, the club elected to move the fireworks show back to Sooner Park where the park setting would be more conducive to various events for the festival. We also took the opportunity to promote 100 years of service to the community. We hope to return to normal activities in 2021.

Bartlesville Kiwanians gather for two workdays in June to clean up Sooner Jr. Miniature Golf Course in preparation for the opening on July 3, 2020. Normally the club preps in March and opens in April, however, due to COVID 19, our club elected to defer till later in the year. Fri. July 3rd was the new scheduled opening day, however with a recent rise in COVID cases and concern over the aging population of our volunteers, the club elected to continue to defer the course opening. Ed Ward continues to water the flowers with the hope that the course can open later in the season. Our club operates this course as a major fundraiser for the club and is normally a major service project for the club with respect to hours and volunteer members.
