1924 - Prescott,
Arizona
The Kiwanis Club of Prescott, chartered in 1924, is one of the oldest service
clubs in Prescott, Arizona. From the
early days when the Club was very instrumental in the fundraising effort which
resulted in the construction of the Hassayampa Inn, our club has been at the
center of developments which have assisted the growth and betterment of our
community. Many of our events, which
are now annual highlights, have been carried on continuously for over 50
years. Since it’s inception in
1949, our annual Kiwanis Auction has been among the most successful fund
raising events - if not the most successful - in the city, generating
a tremendous amount of goodwill for our club as well as funds for the
community.
On May 10, 1924, the
Charter Night of the Kiwanis Club of Prescott was celebrated. A representative of the Phoenix club
presented the charter to the first president of the Club, R.O. Barrett. Upon receiving the official document,
Barrett said “This is a club that will live up to the Kiwanis motto, We
Build.”
He was right.
