Our club was organized in March 1927 and is one of the oldest active clubs in the Pacific Northwest. We’re excited to celebrate our club’s 100th Anniversary in 2027 and we need your help! We’re looking for stories, photos and contact information for former Kiwanis, CKI and Key Club members who have been part of our journey! If you can help, please contact us here.
More information about celebration activities coming soon!

Over the years, we helped sponsor the formation of several other Kiwanis clubs, two of which are still active – Ballard Kiwanis Club formed in October 1927 and also celebrating 100 years in 2027 (!!) and the West Seattle Club organized in May 1929. We welcome any memories you may have to share!
