Service Projects:
Refurbish Riverside Park Train
Club members are currently refurbishing an old train located at Riverside Park which consists of a C&O Kanawha locomotive and tender and a Virginia type C-1 caboose #64.. Neglect and weather over the years have caused this stately train to fall into disrepair. The Kiwanis Club is restoring it to its original glory and there are hopes for building a protective shed over it so that generations to come will get the chance to experience and gaze upon our rich railroad history.

Kids' Haven

Kids' Haven was founded as a community outreach project of the Junior League of Lynchburg, and, in 1998, was chartered as an independent not-for-profit organization with the sole mission of serving, through the provision of support and educational programming, the unique needs of children grieving the death of a person who was significant in their lives. Children come to Kids' Haven for grief support after the death-due to old age, illness, homicide, suicide, accident, or war-of family members and friends.

 Schedule pending on next dinner.
