THE KIWANIS CLUB OF
ANTHONY KANSAS




About The Kiwanis Club of
Anthony Kansas


The Kiwanis Club of Anthony Kansas was chartered March 27, 1925
and has developed a rich tradition of service not only to the community
of Anthony, but to the entire Harper County area. Our club is
a member club of the Kansas District and Kiwanis International.
The Wichita Downtown club sponsored our club on Charter Night,
which was held May 22, 1925. The charter was presented by
Lt. Governor Don A. Kirchner in the absence of
District Governor John C. Landis, Jr. to 30 charter members.

Club Philosophy

This club was the second service club to be organized in Anthony.
The Lions Club was first organized in 1921. Because a very cordial,
friendly relationship has always existed between the two clubs,
we have been able to co-sponsor various events and provide
support to each other's projects. Our club has always tried to be
a booster for anything deemed to be good for Anthony and its citizens.
