Our fund-raising includes Pancake Day, usually held in February or March on a Friday. Plans are to use proceeds from this breakfast to purchase playground equipment. In 2018 we started a new tradition by sponsoring the State of Wellington breakfast with Mayor Hans Schneider and Wellington Schools’ Superintendent (and Kiwanian) Ed Weber provide an overview of the previous year and outline their goal for the coming year. Each August, we sell admission tickets at the Lorain County Fair. We also have our annual Morris Furcron Peterson Nut Sale in the fall. The past two years, the community has supported by Kiwanis in this effort with sales totaling more than $10,000.
Featured sponsors for Wellington Kiwanis Club’s sixth annual Parade of Flags for Flag Day include Small Town Eye Care at Mercy Health; Valley Chevy at Union School Park, and Councilman Keith and Jennifer Rowland at the Town Hall. Season long sponsors are American Legion Post 8 at the Vietnam Memorial on the south lawn of the Town Hall, VFW Post 6941 at the N. Main St. grade separation, and the Wellington Masonic Lodge at Pioneer Cemetery. All told, we have 302 flags waving for Flag Day throughout the village. This year’s campaign has raised about $9,000 for our proposed playground at Union School Park bringing our total to more than $102,000 for the playground. Flags come down after Flag Day, but we will have them back up for Independence Day and our celebration of 250 years as a country. We look forward to the day we have a playground for our children on the south end of town. ... See MoreSee Less
