Club Supports Little League Opening Day

At the recent Frederick Area Little League Opening Day held at Angelberger Field in Baker Park, several members of the Kiwanis Club of Suburban Frederick were on hand to support the Minor League Player Pitch and Machine Pitch teams they sponsor. Pictured are Player Pitch team members enjoying the day with Kiwanian Eric Gatrell. (L to R) Nicholas Vlassopoulos, Brad Walker, Eric Gatrell, Ryan Maddon and Nate Spector.

Hope Alive Benefits from Club Labor

The Kiwanis Club of Suburban Frederick recently provided assistance to Hope Alive in Sabillasville, MD. Hope Alive is a non-profit Christian ministry that offers transitional home and support services for women and their children. The Kiwanians spent the day cleaning and doing laundry. On the outside, they removed weeds, trimmed the yard, cleaned the flower beds, tilled the vegetable garden and repaired some steps. "We cannot fully express our thanks to the Kiwanis Club of Suburban Frederick. They were so pleasant, happy and willing to work," said Missy Miller, Operations Manager.' Pictured standing (L to R) Nicholas Brie, Terry Proescholdt, Phil Pople, Frank Parker. Sitting (L to R) Missy Miller, Peter Brehm, Debbi Matthews, Dave Maloney."
