Ada Kiwanis Club members took a lunch trip to Kewpee Restaurant, Lima, on May 7. The event was more than just an occasion to eat out.
The club thanked the Shutt family for its assistance in the Kiwanis pancake and sausage day events held each spring.
Joe Ferguson, Kiwanis president, thanked Kewpee’s Scott Shutt for his family’s generous to the pancake and sausage events.
He noted the success of previous year’s breakfasts and said that Kewpee sponsorships started in 2007, adding that profits from the project have increased significantly since 2007.
