Kiwanis receive money

The Kiwanis Club of La Conner received a check at their May 17 meeting from the Mount Vernon Kiwanis Noon Club.  The check for $3,975. was for the many shifts of work La Conner did for the Annual Salmon BBQ.  The BBQ is held in April each year in junction with the Skagit Valley Tulip Festival and the money will help fund our student scholarships.  Diane Fox from the Noon Club was excited to hand the check to Jack Fankhauser (far right), Vice President of the club.  Two members of the Noon Club came along to assist Diane.
