We are Creative Doers and Givers. 

Whether we’re rolling up our sleeves or opening our wallets, Kiwanians make transformative changes in our communities through caring, fun and innovative projects.

Pocket Park

The Annual Cleanup Day at the Kiwanis Pocket Park at Klindt’s Cove takes place in spring, look out for a date. Projects accomplished are typically weeding along the Riverfront Trail, water sealing the picnic tables, edging around the tables, and general cleanup around the popular stopping-off place, parking, and restroom area along the trail.

We help at community parades.

The Dalles Kiwanis assist with organizing and lining up the parades.  
Including:
Cherry Festival Parade.
Independence Day Parade
