About Golden K
A Golden
K Kiwanis Club is a special Kiwanis Club,
dedicated to serving the community and it's
youth, but made up primarily of retired
people, although it is not limited to them.
Decatur Golden K has over 160 members,
with an average age of 75. Our club annually
is among the leaders in service hours given
for the good of others. Our meetings are
important occasions for comradeship and fun.
Because we are retired, we can undertake
daytime, weekday projects that other service
clubs cannot do. If you are looking for
something to do in retirement, come and join
us.
We
welcome new members.
