The Kiwanis Club of Lafayette held its annual “Kiwanis Invitational” luncheon today – an event designed to introduce prospective members to the club and its activities and purpose.  The guest speaker was Lafayette Mayor-President Joey Durel, who as always, was a great speaker.  Topics included annexation, consolidation and recreation – the latter specifically referring to Parc Independence – the public/private partnership between the Kiwanis Club of Lafayette and Lafayette Consolidated Government to build the first playground in Lafayette specifically designed for children with physical and mental handicaps.  Many propspective members were in attendance, and special thanks goes to Jason habbit and Michelle Ghent for everything that they did to put forward such a great luncheon presentation.
