Kiwanis Pioneers Host Drive Through Chili Feed Fundraiser

The Kiwanis Club of Fort Scott Pioneers will hold their 32nd annual Chili Feed on Thursday, November 12 at the United Methodist Church at 301 South National in Fort Scott. “There will be a few changes to this year’s fundraiser,” said President Millie Karleskint. “In addition to a new location, the Chili Feed will be a drive-through only event. Also, we will be having cinnamon rolls for our dessert this year “.

A meal of the Pioneers’ signature chili and a homemade cinnamon roll will be served from 11:00 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. and 4:30 p.m. – 6:30 p.m. for a free-will donation (suggested minimum $5.00 donation per meal) to be collected at the door. Pick-ups will be available under the canopy on the National Avenue side of the church.

This is the Kiwanis Pioneers’ major fundraiser for the year. In keeping with the Kiwanis motto of “Changing the world one child and one community at a time”, the Pioneers support more than 40 projects including Scholarships, CASA, the Backpack food program, FSHS Key Club, the Beacon, United Way, Foster Kids, Feeding Families in his Name, Care to Share, and school reading and arts programs. “All of the funds raised stay in Bourbon County” stated Karleskint.

Deliveries will be available for orders of ten or more by calling 620-224-0563 during serving hours.
