Service Clubs

Karen Hubbard Burbank Noon Kiwanis Club members and chairwoman Marsha Jackson are hard at work in preparation for their third annual Gala Fund raiser to be held at 6 p.m. July 29 at Lakeside Country Club. There will be a silent auction as well as a live auction which will be conducted by a professional auctioneer. Tickets are available for the Opportunity Drawing, with $5,000 available as the grand prize. The event will honor Burbank's new mayor, Bill Wiggins, and is expected to raise a major percentage of the funds needed to support the club's ongoing projects.
