Kiwanis Pioneers Set Drive-Through Chili Feed Nov. 10

The Kiwanis Club of Fort Scott Pioneers will hold its 38th annual Chili Feed on Tuesday, November 10, at First United Methodist Church, 301 South National in Fort Scott.

A meal of the Pioneers’ signature chili with crackers and a homemade cinnamon roll will be served from 11:00 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. and again from 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m., for a free-will donation (suggested minimum $10.00 per meal) collected at the door.

This year’s fundraiser will be drive-through only, with pick-ups available under the canopy on the National Avenue side of the church. Drivers are asked not to block private driveways while waiting in line for service.

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

The Chili Feed is the Kiwanis Pioneers’ major fundraiser of the year. In keeping with the Kiwanis motto of “Improving the world one child and one community at a time,” the Pioneers support more than 40 community projects, including college scholarships, CASA, the Backpack food program, FSHS Key Club, Head Start, the Beacon, Foster Kids, CORE, Feeding Families in His Name, Care to Share, and school reading and arts programs.

“All of the funds raised stay in Bourbon County,” said Kiwanis Pioneer President Mary Wyatt.
