Kiwanis aiming for 100 coats in annual drive

(Nov. 20, 2014) The Kiwanis Club of Greater Ocean Pines–Ocean City recently received a challenge from the Greater Millsboro Kiwanis Club to collect 100 coats for local agencies who administer the providing of coats to those in need.  
All of the Kiwanis Clubs in District 5 received the same challenge, which is meant to celebrate the 100-year anniversary of Kiwanis in 2015.
The Ocean Pines–Ocean City Club accepted the challenge, but moved it to December, as the cold weather begins earlier than 2015, and designated Worcester G.O.L.D. as the recipient.
Kiwanis Club member, Reverend David Herr, is chairing the project and encouraging all members to gather new or gently used, clean coats for children and adults by the Dec. 3 deadline.
If the public wants to participate, bring donations to the Kiwanis Club’s meeting on Wednesday, Dec. 3 from 7:30-9:30 a.m. in the Ocean Pines Community Center Assateague Room.   
For more information, call Pat Winkelmayer at 410-641-5036.
