The Kiwanis Club of Coeur d’Alene was proud to recognize Scout Brown as our April 2026 Student of the Month at our most recent meeting. Scout was joined by her mother, Gina, and was introduced by Kiwanis member Dick Jurvelin, who shared highlights from her impressive biography. From the moment her accomplishments were presented, it was clear that Scout is an exceptional young woman who embodies the values of leadership, service, and academic excellence.
The Kiwanis Club of Coeur d’Alene’s April 2026 Student of the Month – Scout Brown
A senior at Lake City High School, Scout has distinguished herself with an outstanding 4.147 GPA while taking on a challenging academic load that includes honors, AP, and dual-credit courses. She has been deeply involved in school life as a four-year cheerleader, serving as JV captain and competing at the varsity level, while also contributing through student council, where she now serves as ASB Treasurer. In addition to her academic and leadership achievements, Scout is actively engaged in organizations such as National Honor Society, Key Club, and the Outdoor Studies Program.
Beyond the classroom, Scout’s commitment to serving others truly sets her apart. She founded and leads Lake City Thrift, demonstrating both initiative and a heart for her community. She also gives her time as a middle school cheer coach, a Young Life student leader, and an active member of her church, all while maintaining a job in downtown Coeur d’Alene. Known for her kindness, empathy, and ability to uplift those around her, Scout plans to attend North Idaho College before pursuing a degree in elementary education. We congratulate Scout and her family on this well-deserved honor and look forward to seeing the positive impact she will continue to make.
Get ready for an energizing weekend with Kiwanians from across the Pacific Northwest filled with big ideas, inspiring stories, meaningful friendships, and practical tools to help your club thrive.
At our Club's meeting on May 13, Marty Behm - a longtime member of our Club and Lt. Governor of our Club's district - gave a presentation on the origins, history and mission of Kiwanis. We've recently posted a detailed summary of that presentation on our Club's website.

Kiwanis Club of Coeur d’Alene Welcomes Two New Members
At the May 6, 2026 meeting of the Kiwanis Club of Coeur d’Alene, the Club proudly welcomed two new members into our Kiwanis family — Brad Wagner and Mary Bren.
The induction ceremony was led by Megan Tollackson, Immediate Past President and current Membership Chair, who spoke about the core precepts and tenets of Kiwanis and the importance of service to children and the community. Club President Mike Lane also participated in the ceremony as the Club formally recognized and welcomed our newest members.
Brad Wagner was sponsored by his wife, Jeanie Nugent, while Mary Bren was sponsored by Matt Palmer. Both new members have already demonstrated a strong heart for service and a desire to make a positive difference in our community — values that are at the very core of Kiwanis.
Following the induction, the entire Club rose in applause to warmly welcome Brad and Mary as official members of the Kiwanis Club of Coeur d’Alene.
We are excited about the energy, compassion, and commitment they bring to our organization and look forward to serving alongside them in the months and years ahead. Strong clubs are built by people who are willing to step forward and invest in their community, and we are grateful to have Brad and Mary join us in that mission.
Welcome to Kiwanis, Brad and Mary!
