Carlton Norris elected to state Kiwanis office
Norris was nominated for this office by the Kiwanis Club of Washington and the nomination was delivered to the Kiwanis convention delegates by Washington Kiwanis President-elect Bill Steed. Norris has previously served both the Washington club and the Kiwanis state district in several capacities including distinguished club president, distinguished lieutenant governor and currently, district chairman of new club building. Consistent with Kiwanis tradition, Norris will serve as district secretary/ treasurer for one year, followed by a term as governor-elect and be installed as governor of the Georgia District of Kiwanis in August 2008. Georgia contains 180 Kiwanis Clubs with more than 8,000 members. Kerry McAvoy, president of the Kiwanis Club of Washington, said, "Kiwanis International has honored not only our local Kiwanis Club but also our community. Both our club and Washington-Wilkes will be closely identified with these offices all over Georgia for at least the next four years. The last time the Kiwanis Club of Washington had a Kiwanis district governor was in 1929 when the late Pembroke Pope served, so we believe we are certainly due."
The Kiwanis Club of Washington is one of the oldest clubs in the country with a history of more than 85 years. Chartered in 1920, the club has been a leading civic club in the community since its inception and had a rich tradition of community service.
