CAL-NEV-HA District | |||||
|
The CAL-NEV-HA district encompasses all Kiwanis Clubs in California, Nevada, and Hawaii. The district sponsors various activities including conferences and seminars on various topics. The California-Nevada District was organized in the fall of 1918 as the California District. The first club was Los Angeles, completed August 24, 1917. W. W. Widenham of Los Angeles was the first governor. He was re-appointed at a district meeting in Los Angeles in 1919 and served until June 25, 1920. Leslie B. Henry then served until November 4, 1922. On March 24, 1923, Nevada became affiliated with the district, and the International Board approved the name of California-Nevada District at a meeting in December of 1924. Long Beach was the second in the district. Pasadena was third and Oakland fourth. With the formation in 1947 of the clubs in Hawaii into a division, the feasibility of adding this division to the California-Nevada District was discussed. In 1950, the district forwarded a resolution to the International Board spelling out the arrangements suggested to make the California-Nevada-Hawaii District operative as of January 1, 1951. This request was approved by the Board. You can find out more about the Cal-Nev-Ha District and locate a local Kiwanis organization by going to the Cal-Nev-Ha website. |
