Before you know it, the kids will be back in school for another year of learning. The Kiwanis Club of Wellington is raising funds and having a supply drive to provide school supplies for our elementary and middle school children. Please help us provide the new supplies that our kids will need to be successful this coming school year. A trip to Wellington’s Discount Drug Mart in 2023 showed us that the required supplies for a fourth grade student cost between $50 and $60 then. Imagine the total cost today for families with multiple students in elementary and middle school!
Kiwanis will also collect and use monetary donations to purchase supplies in bulk and distribute them at the “Back to School Bash” on August 15 at the McCormick Middle School Gymnasium.
The supplies you purchase should be from the 2026-27 supply lists for each grade level. New supplies from these lists can be dropped off until noon August 13 at the following locations:
On Veterans Day 2026 we salute all those who served in the armed forces. And Wellington Kiwanis honors our veterans with our Parade of Flags and 306 U.S. flags waving throughout our village. Our featured sponsors include Expert Crane at Mercy Health on N. Main St.; Councilman Gary and Tracey Feron for the Town Hall display; and Mayor Hans Schneider and his wife Wendy for the 20-flag display at Union School Park. We also thank our season long sponsors, the American Legion for the Vietnam Memorial on the south lawn of the Town Hall, the Wellington/Oberlin Memorial VFW Post 6941 for the display on Duke Pride Hill at O'Keefe Way on N. Main St., and the Wellington Masonic Lodge for the display at Pioneer Cemetery along W. Herrick Ave. All proceeds are set aside for a playground at Union School Park on S. Main St. The fund has topped $100,000. Thank you Wellington. ... See MoreSee Less
