The Kiwanis Club of Strongsville welcomed Joe Gazzo to the podium Wednesday night.  Joe is the Director of Education for the Baseball Heritage Museum at League Park.  

Joe entertained the club with stories of the history of the park that included a slide show of pictures from the museum.  Club members, who welcomed Joe by wearing a variety of Indians hats, shirts, and jackets, were fascinated as they heard about the early days of the Cleveland Indians.

Joe, an incredible artist as well as a gifted speaker, showed the club a number of his drawings including "Shoeless" Joe Jackson and "The Yankee Clipper" Joe DiMaggio.

The Strongsville Kiwanis Club hosted the 13th Annual Read Around the World at the Strongsville branch library on Saturday February 23rd.  

Doors opened at 10:00AM and the room quickly filled with young children, their parents, grandparents, and many brothers and sisters.

​There were a number of activities for the children to choose from, including face-painting, watching a puppet show, and listening to a spirited book reading by Tim Protiva, Children's Librarian.  

Strongsville Kiwanis provided over 350 books for the attendees to pick from, and each child was able to pick an age appropriate book to take home free of charge.  

"It's great to see so many young children interested in reading", said club President Al Gizzi.  Studies show that the earlier a child starts to read, the better chance of success they have later in life.

The Kiwanis Club of Strongsville is dedicated to helping the children of the Strongsville community, hosting Read Around the World each year, and is well known for the Patriotic Flag display for special holidays on the Strongsville square.

25 Years - New Logo - Same Mission

A regular Wednesday meeting became a very special time as members of the Strongsville Kiwanis Club visited Camp Cheerful, located in the Mill Stream Run Reservation in Strongsville.

The meeting started with a visit to the equine center, where members learned about all the great programs Camp Cheerful offers and how their Equine Therapy program improves lives.  

After a chance to 'meet' some of the horses, the club got a full tour of the grounds.  Members concluded the evening learning about volunteer opportunities and fundraising efforts to keep the camp running.
