Welcome to Kiwanis Club of Wellington! We have been serving the community since 1924, supporting the three Kiwanis causes for our children and youth: Health and Nutrition, Education and Literacy, and Youth Leadership Development.
When you join Kiwanis, you’ll find our club is a mix of ages, genders, occupations, backgrounds, and interests. We are all passionate about making our community and the world a better place for children so they can thrive. We are devoted to serving the children in our local community and also children all across the country and worldwide through unique and innovative service projects and fundraising initiatives. We sponsor three service leadership programs in the Wellington Schools – the WHS Key Club, the McCormick Middle School Builders Club and the Westwood Elementary School K-Kids – and sponsor two sophomore leaders’ participation in the Hugh O’Brien Youth Leadership Forum.
The Kiwanis Club of Wellington meets twice per month:
Business Meeting is at 12 noon on the first Thursday of each month in the back room of Bread and Brew, 100 S. Main St. Order your lunch early at the counter and it will be brought to the back room. Meetings are promptly adjourned at 1:00 pm.
An informative Program Meeting is held monthly on the third Thursday of each month at noon in the back room of Bread and Brew, 100 S. Main St.
Yes, we have meetings, but our primary role in the community is service – through various hands-on service projects, fundraisers, and supportive donations to youth-oriented causes. We would love to have you join us!
Veterans Day is the fifth and final patriotic holiday for Wellington Kiwanis Club’s sixth annual Parade of Flags. We would like to acknowledge and show our appreciation for those volunteers who set more than 300 flags on Memorial Day, Flag Day, Independence Day, Patriot Day, and Veterans Day. The effort is led by Kiwanian Rob Skinner of North Coast Wireless. He coordinates the scheduling and flag route assignments, secures the U.S. flags, the rebar and flag poles. Those who set flags include Ashley and Matt Deaton, who take care of Duke Pride Hill on North Main St.; Jay Eastman of Norton-Eastman Funeral Home who handles the display at Mercy Health on North Main; Wellington Masonic Lodge member Calvin Woods sets the flags at Pioneer Cemetery on West Herrick; Jason Keith of Colonial Barber Shop does the Community Donation flags at NN Inc. on W. Herrick Ave. Chief Hank Smitley and the South Lorain County Ambulance District team set the flags at the Town Hall and Vietnam Memorial; and Deb and Mark Lansman set flags at Union School Park on S. Main St.. Others who set flags throughout the village include Board of Education member Dave Brattoli, Rev. Klinton Richerson of Wellington Baptist Church, Vickie Rutherford, Pam Rousch, Dan Trinter, Terry and Pam Mazzone, Rev. Brian and Carol Burke and Mike Wetherbee and the Wellington Fire District volunteers. The program continues to grow each year by about 10 percent each year, and we will need more volunteers in 2027.
