Builders Club              

The Builders Club meets the first and third Tuesday of each month in D-119 at 8:00 a.m.

Welcome!  Ms. Granberg and Mrs. Lindner are the sponsors for the Builders Club.  They are excited about what this year holds for the Club. 

What is Builders Club?

Builders Club is a “student-led” community service organization, which operates under school regulations and draws its members from the student body. Community-based Builders Clubs also may be established at community facilities such as: churches, libraries, YMCA’s, or lodges. Builders Club is unique because a Kiwanis club, composed of leading business and professional people of the community, serves as the club’s sponsor.

Builders Club is structured only on the local club level but is supported by the Kiwanis International Office in Indianapolis , Indiana , which provides programs, literature, and opportunities to relate to teenagers from countries all around the world!

Builders Club Objectives:

• To provide opportunities for working together in service to school and community.
• To develop leadership potential.
• To foster the development of strong moral character.
• To encourage loyalty to school, community, and nation. 

How do students benefit?

Middle school years bridge the gap between childhood and young adulthood. It is a crossroads in life. Young people need and want new and exciting challenges that direct their personal development toward the fulfillment of a happy and productive life. Builders Club helps to build strong leaders for tomorrow...today.

Builders Club provides a way to form sound personal values based on experiences in meaningful community-service activities. The members learn by doing. They learn organization, teamwork, and leadership. But the most important lesson they can learn is that individuals working together can and will make a difference to the world around them.

Special Thanks:

The Kiwanis Club of Panama City for sponsoring our club and Keith Forehand the Kiwanis Advisor.

What we've done in 2004-2005:

We had a Valentine's Lollipop Fundraiser and a Fundraiser for Kyle Hellet, a nine-year old boy who got shot in the eye with a pellet gun. We hope to use the funds from the Lollipop's to purchase shirts for our club and help toward the purchase of a pencil dispensing machine. On February 25th some of our members went to the Special Olympics at Tommy Oliver Stadium. It was a very rewarding experience for our members to cheer on those less fortunate than themselves. We hope to have at least one more field trip this year.
