Ever since that time, Kiwanians in Oshawa have worked hard and by virtue of their community- spirited efforts, have built an en- viable repuation for Kiwanis Club and its service in this city and district. The Kiwanis Boys' Camp locat- ed at Kedron, was one of the first projects adopted by the club. Mem- bers of the Kiwanis Club built that camp with their own hands. Other buildings have been added in re- cent years; a fine swimming pool and other accommodations have been added, but in the main Kiwan- is Camp is a product of Oshawa Kiwanians. Local Kiwanis Club Has Splendid Record Every summer two groups of boys and two groups of girls, total- ling about 200 youngsters of Osh- awa and district are given a health- ful summer holiday at Kiwanis Camp, with professional dietitians, camp supervisors, doctors and oth- er experienced help in charge of the entire program. This has always been a major project for Oshawa Kiwanians but since 1928 their field of service and charitable work in the com- munity has attained a much wider scope. The K Club of the Ontario Train- ing School in Bowmanville is to- day one of the chief projects of the Oshawa Kiwanians. Their splen- did work in citizenship rehabilita- tion has earned them recognition throughout the length and breadth of Kiwanis International. The work of Oshawa Kiwanians with the Junior Farmers of On- tario and Durham counties has stamped -the Oshawa Club as a leader in suburban relations. Boosting all community activi- ties, sponsoring softball leagues, hockey teams, oratorical conests, conservation programs, su of churches, vocational guidance, the T.B. seal and T.B., survey cam- paigns, all these and many other projects occupy the time of Osh- awa Kiwanis Club members, ev- ery day of the year. They have built and earned a worthy reputation as one of the guiding lights and worth-while in- fluences in the life of this com- munity and because it is appreciat- ed by the citizens of Oshawa and district, it is confidently expected that the Kiwanis Club of Oshawa will receive whole-hearted support at their annual appeal, the Kiwan- is Carnival, which is being held at the Oshawa Arena on Friday and Saturday nights of this week.
