A Message From

Susan Faessel

President of the Kiwanis Club of Greater Anaheim

Welcome to the 47th Annual Orange County High School All-Star
North vs. South Baseball Game sponsored by the Kiwanis Club of
Greater Anaheim (KCGA). This game contains the cream of the crop
of senior high school baseball players from throughout Orange County and has produced a
number of professional Major League Baseball players throughout the years.

I want to thank all those who make this game possible; from the players and coaches
themselves, to the many volunteers, sponsors, advertisers and in-kind donors who give their
time, effort, money and other resources needed to make this game go off without a hitch. I also
want to acknowledge and thank the parents of the players for their years of support and
encouragement to get them to where they are today.

Many of you may have heard of Kiwanis as a community service organization. I am proud to
say that KCGA is one of the most active within Orange County. KCGA, is “dedicated to
improving the world, one child and community at a time.” KCGA does this through Service
Leadership Programs at local elementary (K-Kids), junior high (Builders Clubs) and high
schools (Key Clubs) that perform community service and raise funds for Kiwanis causes.

KCGA provides over $25,000 annually in scholarships to high school seniors. KCGA
provides money and services to over 25 community non-profit organizations and activities; such
as the Anaheim Public Library, the Anaheim Arts Council, the Anaheim Fall Festival, the
Anaheim Children’s Festival, the Orange County Family Justice Center, the Anaheim Family
YMCA and the Anaheim Boys and Girls Club. KCGA is also partnering with Kiwanis clubs
throughout the world in the Eliminate Project that will be raising $110 million to eliminate
maternal neo-natal tetanus in every county where it still exists.

You are invited to be our guest at one of our weekly Thursday morning meetings at 7:30 AM
at the Clarion Hotel. For more information, visit our website at Kiwanisclubofgreateranaheim.org.

On behalf of KCGA and our All-Star Baseball Game Chairman, Will Cornell, welcome to
Glover Stadium and enjoy this very special game.

Congratulations All-Stars

Susan Faessel, 2013-2014 President
Kiwanis Club of Greater Anaheim

Key Club International

Kiwanis Club of Greater Anaheim Sponsors local Key Clubs

Key Club International is the largest co-educational high school service organization in our Nation and Internationally. A local Key Club must
be organized and continuously sponsored by a local Kiwanis Club. Key Clubs are self-governing and elect their own officers, determine their
service projects and fund-raisers and operate under the rules of the school administration. Key Club objectives include the objectives of
Kiwanis. Key Clubs are unique for their aim in the development of initiative, leadership ability and good citizenship practices of its members.
Each individual Key Club is a member of the International Organization with his or her own annual District, International programs and
conventions. Each Key Club's service activities are designed for their local high school and community needs.

The “Key” in Key Club stands for “Kiwanis Educating Youth”.
The Kiwanis Club of Greater Anaheim sponsors eight Key Clubs at Anaheim High School, Katella High School,
Loara High School, Rosary High School, Savanna High School, Servile High School, Fairmont High School and
Western High School.
Each Key Club meets once a week, on campus, with an Academic and Kiwanis advisor present who advise but the
students run the meetings and present projects which their board has approved. These leaders have been trained
and many have attended the yearly District Convention which alternates between Sacramento and Southern
California. KCGA’s Key Clubs are in Division 30 South of the California-Nevada-Hawaii District of Kiwanis
International.
Key Club’s Motto is “Caring Our Way of Life.” The members of the Key Club demonstrate this caring by raising
funds for various organizations with which they partner: with UNICEF for Project Eliminate to eliminate neo-natal
tetanus in 29 countries; just this year Key Clubs raised $150,000 for Pediatric Trauma Prevention; March of Dimes-
Key Club International began partnering with the March of Dimes in the 60's and continues to collect dimes in
hopes that someday children will be born free of birth defects; and Children's Miracle Network-this non-profit raises
money to benefit hospitalized kids.
KCGA Key Clubs volunteer in local events such as the Disney Half-Marathon, Relay for Life, the Anaheim
Children's Art Festival, the Anaheim Halloween Festival, the Kiwanis CHOC Carnival, and supports Kiwanis
projects such as this All Star Baseball Game; providing lunches for the Orange County Special Olympics; Light the
Night at Angel Stadium for the Leukemia/Lymphoma Society and our annual music festival/pancake breakfast in
December.
Key Club was founded in 1925 and the members continue to pledge to uphold the Objects of Key Club
International, to build their home, school, and community; to serve their nation and God; and to combat all forces
which tend to undermine these institutions.
The Kiwanis Club of Greater Anaheim is proud of its Key Clubs which inspire by their shining service and give
everyone faith that the future of this nation is in good hands.

The Kiwanis Club of Greater
Anaheim has participated in
the Special Olympics since it
began in Orange County in
the early seventies, thanks
to the efforts of Ralph “Pete”
Esten. Through 1997, Pete
“ran the show” for KCGA,
taking care of all the details
necessary for us to provide
free lunches to the
competitors, coaches and
counselors. 1,400 lunches
were served at the Special
Olympics Regional Games
held at Irvine High School. It’s
estimated, since the Kiwanis
Club of Greater Ahaheim
intiated this program, over
32,000 free lunches have
been provided.

At the 2012 Spring Games the Kiwanis Club of Greater Anaheim was awarded by Special Olympics Orange
County Southern California a “Life Time Achievement Award” honoring the Kiwanis Club of Greater Anaheim
for its efforts in providing lunches and support for the past 32 years. Our club’s support will continue by
supplying volunteers from our Club and the eight High School Key Clubs that we sponsor in lunch preparation.
