Club History

The Kiwanis Club of Alexandria was chartered in 1937.  A vivid summary of the history of the club was compiled in 1990.  It is presented here as three files due to the size:

• 1937-1950
• 1951-1964
• 1965-1990

A project was started in 2020 to document from 1991 to the present and to gather stories of interest from the past.  If you have something from any of those years that you think should be considered, contact the current club historian.  The years and club presidents involved in the history update project are listed.  If highlighted as a link, select the link to view that year of history:
