Club History
Our club was chartered on May 21,
1974. The club met each Friday morning for breakfast, until
about 10 years ago, when the club started meeting twice a month. Our club founded and maintained the
Labor Day Arts & Crafts Festival in Simpsonville until we
turned it over to the Simpsonville Chamber of Commerce around
1999. We started our first Terrific Kids program at
Bryson Elementary in 1987.
We also started the Policeman of
the Year program in 1988. We now do 7 Terrific Kids
programs after having turned two of them over to the new club
that we sponsored in Fountain Inn. We are also involved in
a reading program for the 6, K-4 classes, at the Golden Strip
Center. We also hold an annual Christmas dinner and party for
the underprivileged families of the Golden Strip, at the Golden
Strip Center. We have been actively involved in the
Special Olympics at Furman University for almost 25 years.
