Club History  

We belong to the Minnesota-Dakotas District of Kiwanis International.

The Kiwanis Club of Little Falls was Chartered April 29th, 1961. The first Club President was David Larson.

Our Club has had four members serve as Lt. Gov. over the years, they were: Robert "Bob" Verley; Wallace "Wally" Erickson; Glen "Kray" Kraywinkle; & Charles "Charlie" Erbstoesser.

We have supplied/purchased all of the playground equipment in the Little Falls City Park (until recently when the West Side Association upgraded the Pine Grove Park equipment); & we bought the lights for the Jaycees / Kiwanis Park in SW Little Falls.

Our Club originally started 'Pancake Day' 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. on election day. It has since become very popular & we no longer do this. We even had "Aunt Jemima" come to our event one year.

Our Club started the Honor's Reception & recognition award, for students maintaining a "B" average or better from the time they entered high school through graduation, & award one scholarship each year.

We are proud to be the sponsoring Kiwanis Club of the "Little Falls Flyer Key Club," the only high school 'service club.' (KEY stands for: Kiwanis Educating Youth.)
