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 9 at the McCormick Middle School Gymnasium.
The supplies you purchase should be from the 2025-26 supply lists for each grade level. New supplies from these lists can be dropped off until noon August 8 at the following locations:

The schools will be discussing facility upgrades at the high school, elementary school and athletic facility, while the village will be provide an update on development of Union School Park. And, of course, Mayor Hans Schneider will be presenting Keys to the Village to worth recipients. Who knows what other surprises we will learn about! ... See MoreSee Less
