The Club also recognized and thanked two outgoing Directors who are completing their terms of service on the Board:

• Dick Jurvelin
• Lindsay Patterson

We are deeply grateful for the leadership, dedication, and countless hours of volunteer service that Dick and Lindsay have provided during their time on the Board. Strong community organizations depend on members who are willing to step forward and lead, and their contributions have helped strengthen both our Club and our impact in the community.

The Club also wishes to express its deep appreciation to outgoing Immediate Past President Megan Tollackson for her years of dedicated leadership and service. During her tenure, Megan launched and established the Club’s Impact Committees, helping members become more directly engaged in meaningful community service initiatives. She also created the now-annual SLP (Service Leadership Program) Banquet, which celebrates and honors the outstanding work of our Key Club and Aktion Club members. In addition, Megan played an important role in building momentum for the Club’s membership efforts and strengthening engagement within the organization. Her commitment, energy, and passion for Kiwanis have made a lasting impact on the Club, and we are grateful that she will continue to remain actively involved even after retiring from Club office.

The Kiwanis Club of Coeur d’Alene looks forward to another exciting year of service under the guidance of this outstanding leadership team as we continue our mission of serving the children of the world — one child and one community at a time.
