District Download Unpacking the Power of Kiwanis Podcast
Welcome to the Rocky Mountain District Kiwanis Podcast, your premier destination for all things Kiwanis in the scenic Rocky Mountain region. Here, we embark on an enlightening journey, delving into the heart of service, leadership, and community engagement. Our podcast serves as a beacon, illuminating the extraordinary efforts and remarkable stories woven throughout the fabric of our Kiwanis district. At the core of our podcast lies the spirit of Kiwanis – a global organization dedicated to serving children and communities through various avenues of volunteerism and leadership development.
It's with mixed emotions that I share an important update regarding my role: I will be resigning from my position as Executive Director of the Rocky Mountain District, with my last day of employment being June 30, 2025.
This decision is for the betterment of my family, as I have accepted an exciting new position as Executive Director for the Platte County Economic Development.
It's been an immense privilege to serve this District for the past six years. Every interaction, every project, and every moment spent with you all has been a true joy and a significant part of my journey. I'm deeply grateful for the opportunities and experiences we have shared.
My absolute priority during this transition is the continued health and success of our District. I have a firm plan in place to ensure a smooth handover, especially with the upcoming District Convention in mind.
I look forward to continuing to serve alongside you all as an active Kiwanian and seeing all the great things to come! ... See MoreSee Less
