Kiwanis install officers at banquet

The FMB Kiwanis held their Installation Banquet at Charley’s Boathouse Grill on Oct. 6.
Trinky named Mark Wagner as “Volunteer of the Year.” Trinky also had a very special award to present to her husband, Robert Jarrett. She presented him with the Kiwanis Ralph Davis Fellow Award. Other members of the Beach Kiwanis were recognized for their participation.
