The Kiwanis Club of Coshocton voted to cancel its annual Pancake Day usually held in November every year, due to Covid-19.

For many decades the annual pancake day has served as the club’s main fundraiser. In an attempt to make up for the lost revenue, the club plans to hold several fundraisers.

With the focus being children, the mission of Kiwanis is to serve its community one child at a time and has given an average of more than $20,000 a year to Coshocton county programs that serve children and youth. Examples of programs supported recently include the Coshocton Library summer reading program, Boy Scouts, Ridgewood Recreation, Camp Invention, Imagination Library, and Clary Gardens summer program.

Kiwanis members have weekly lunch meetings on Wednesdays at noon at the Coshocton Elks with speakers scheduled.  If you wish to learn more about the local club, contact club President Cole Moody at [email protected].
