benefit the Kiwanis Club of Suburban Frederick Fund held by The Community
Foundation of Frederick County.
More than 100

the community and from the many organizations that have donated items. He added
that Frederick auctioneer Robert A. Wilson has volunteered his services for the
evening.
“Kiwanians respond to the needs of
their communities by working together to achieve what one person cannot
accomplish alone,” said Maloney. “Because of this event, The Kiwanis Club of
Suburban Frederick Fund will be able to provide even more scholarships and
grants, and help even more children in need. We encourage everyone to join us on
Sept. 13 for this worthwhile event,” he said.
