1998 - 1999 President's Report
What a great year! Our Club continues to demonstrate why it is Canada's premiere service club and one of the best in Kiwanis International.
Our success as a team has been built upon the strength of character of our Club Directors, the Committee Chairs and all individual members.
On every occasion the members of this club rose to the challenge laid before them. am pleased to report the following list of our accomplishments:
¥ our membership had a positive increase of 1 member to 251 members. We continue to be Canada's largest Kiwanis Club.
¥ the first Rideau Centre - Kiwanis For Kids Lottery was launched raising more than $15,000
¥ the Kiwanis Duck Race for Tiny Hearts at CHEO was so successful that we regained first place in the CHEO Telethon Special Events category.
¥ our Club stepped in on short notice to host the Easter Seals Telethon which was held in January 1999.
¥ our partnership with Bon Appetit! Ottawa raised over $50,000 for our club with our own Silent Auction. The efforts of the Club also helped the Bon Hendry Appetit organization raise a record-breaking amount for their cause. DIATE PAST-PRESIDENT ¥ our Golf Committee surpassed the previous year's results with a spectacular tournament. This tournament raises more money in our Region than any other áPRESIDENTS golf event.
RARY SECRETARY ¥ the Ottawa Senators "Partners In Caring" project was another success raising $27,000 and will continue into next year. RARY TREASURER D Wright ¥ in June of 1999 our Club, along with other Kiwanis Clubs in the Region, became a major sponsor of the Canadian Special Olympics 2000 Winter Games.
¥ our Club sponsored Canada's first AKtion Club which began information sessions for prospective members in August of 1999. ISTRATIVE SECRETARY Ita Harper .. .12 nis Theme UILO' "YOUNG CHILDREN: PRIORITY ONE"

I was pleased to see that as a Club the budget of the Youth & Community Services Committee was increased from the previous year. This reversed a trend which had persisted for a number of years and reflects the improved financial health of the club which has strengthened considerably over the last two years.
On a sad note, our Club lost Harry Brown, a 30-year member who was loved by all. Harry Brown was President in 1976-77 and remained an active counsellor to all the Presidents who followed him. His guidance and gentle nature are greatly missed.
Of course, Rita Harper continues to demonstrate her calm, common sense approach to the operations of the club. Rita goes far beyond the call of duty and I wish to express my most sincere thanks to her.
In closing, it has been a distinct honour to serve as the 82nd President of this remarkable organization. Thank you for letting me have the opportunity.
Yours in Kiwanis,

Committee Reports
ii 1998-99
;; AIR CADETS COMMITTEE REPORT 1998-1999
To: The President and Members of the Kiwanis Club of Ottawa
This was a complex administrative year for the committee. We had to accept the resignation of Colonel Ron Donovan as the squadron's commanding officer. Major June Humphries agreed to act as commanding officer for the remainder of the year. She fell quite ill but very courageously completed the year.
Our financial reporting was changed so that our committee treasurer could be held more accountable to our committee chairman in the day to day financial operations of the squadron. The Club agreed to forward a portion of our budgeted funds to our treasurer at the beginning of each school year for better management.
Recruiting We did not do any active recruiting this school year. Our numbers are slightly down, but still over one hundred active cadets. We agreed that active recruiting had to be performed for the next term.
Staffing With the loss of Colonel Donovan, we are lacking people. We need to find at least 2 more people for our squadron staff.
Community Service Our cadets were always willing to accept requests. They were especially busy during Remembrance day week. They were also involved in a few events for the Legion.
Annual Inspection The squadron held its last parade for parents, family, friends, and our Club in May. They demonstrated many of the skills and talents that they had been training for all year. The parents hosted a reception after the parade.
Bush Camps Our cadets attended 2 bush camps during this term.
Fly and Glider days All the cadets had the opportunity to fly in a glider and in a Cessna. In fact, one of the Cessna's used was flown by one of our own Cadets!
Annual Luncheon We had a wonderful luncheon at Capones East. We had an opportunity to hear from both a General and one of our cadets about the cadet movement. We also had a display of historic photos about our squadron.
Committee Participation Committee members were active on fly day, bush weekends, the Christmas Dinner, effective speaking, final inspection, cadet luncheon, and the Mess Dinner.
7 Chair1s comments I would like to the thank the Air Cadet Committee, the Board of Directors, the staff of the squadron, and President Ian Hendry for all their support I received over the year. I hope that the incoming board can help the new committee with recruitment of new active members. The committee is counting too much on the generosity of members that have been on the committee for a long time.
Sincerely,
Guy H.J. Bourbonniere, Chair

8 BON APPETIT! OTTAWA - SILENT AUCTION COMMITTEE 1998-99 ------To: The President and Members of the Kiwanis Club of Ottawa
The 1st Annual Bon Appetit Silent Auction was held on Tuesday, May 11, 1999, at the Aberdeen Pavilion, Lansdowne Park, in association with the Bon Appetit! dinner gala, a hugely popular dining and social event. This year the event was a sellout, attractiing well over 2,500 guests.
The participation of the Kiwanis Club of Ottawa as a feature of this event came about in no small part through the support of Vic Jones who is owner of Capone's Restaurant, a co-chair of the Bon Appetit! Dinner, a Kiwanis Club of Ottawa member and a very active member of our committee. Vic's role as the liaison between the two organizations contributed greatly to our success and we owe him much gratitude for his efforts. Also, Vic kindly hosted our committee meetings this last year at his restaurant (Capone's Eastside) and has agreed to do so again for this coming year's auction committee meetings.
The 10 members of the Silent Auction Committee were a combination of members who previously organized the Benefit Dinner's Silent Auction, as well as several newer Kiwanians. This mix gave a strong diversity to the committee's efforts and enriched the end-product.
Our committee organized a Silent Auciton offering 149 lots, ranging from electronics, hotel and restaurant packages, artwork, jewellry, sports items, airfare packages and much more. Auction sales proceeds that night generated $48,795. In addition, sponsorship monies totalled $5,700 ($5,000 from Minto Developments, $500 from Urbandale Corporation, and $200 from the Bank of Montreal Private Banking), creating an overall total of $54,495. After costs of approximately $5,000, our net yield to the Club's Community Services Account totalled approximately $50,000.
Although our committee was thrilled with the results, we feel that at the same time this was a first- time effort on this project, and now having experienced the venue first-hand, we shall be planning to refine and improve on the project's "Millenium" edition this coming year when we reconvene in early November.
I would like to thank all the members of the committee for their hard work and dedication, all Kiwanians who donated items and or attended the event, and to make speical mention of a couple of Kiwanians who although not technically members of the committee, contributed greatly to our success. They include - Shirley Tomblin, who solicited many items, helped organize the necessary administration and event worked the day and night of the event; Jamie Johnson who provided internet technical support throughout the project's term and volunteered with his wife Laura to help staff the event; Rita Harper, who volunteered the night of the event was a huge help, as were some non-Kiwanians including Meagan Paquette, her friends, and my own dear wife, Elaine, all of whom helped immeasurably as volunteers that night and assisted in making this event a success.

9 DUCK RACE COMMITTEE 1998.. 99 ------To: The President and Members of the Kiwanis Club of Ottawa
The 1999 Kiwanis (12th) Duck Race for Tiny Hearts at CHEO was a terrific success and proof that this race is still treasured and supported in our community. We sold approximately 6,000 more ducks than the previous year raising our total to 77,878 tickets, an increase of over 20,000 tickets since the 1997 race. A cheque for the amount of $275,565.93 was turned over to CHEO on the Children's Miracle Network Telethon on June 6, 1999. The Kiwanis Club of Ottawa has embraced the Duck Race as one of its key sponsorship activities and in past years, working with their membership and retail partners have succeeded in impressive ticket sales, generating over three million dollars in funds for the Foundation. The goal for the year 2000 race is to launch 100,000 ducks and 1999 was building towards that goal. Partners who signed on for the 1999 race will form the foundation for the Y2Q (Quack!) Race in the year 2000.
The objective of the committee this year was to rebuild the strength and commitment from our ticket distributors. The 1999 race marked an evolution in how the sale of tickets was administered. A Duck Dealer Kit was implemented which was designed to reduce and eventually eliminate consignment ticket sales. We designed a ticket dealer package that allows new and old duck dealers to pick different levels of participation. This kit was well received by the participating corporations and 95% of our previous duck dealers decided to participate. We signed on new duck dealers and should build on adding new corporate dealers next year.
The levels ofparticipation was (but not limited to) Gold Feather Packages (5000 tickets) including; Farm Boy, Staples Business Depot, MacEwen's Petroleum, Royal Bank, Scotia Bank. Silver Tail Packages (2000 tickets) including; Bell Canada, Dairy Queen, Canada Trust, Brown's Cleaners, Fire Fighters, Pharma Plus, M&M Meat Shops, Shopper's Drug Mart, W.O. Stinson and Sons and Bronze Bill packages (1000 tickets) including; Apollo Management, Red Lobster, Mark's Work Wearhouse, Royal Trust, and Starbucks Coffee. Other duck dealers included the Carlingwood Seniors, CHEO, the Duck Bus, and all participating Kiwanis Clubs
Farm Boy Fresh Markets enjoyed their second year as the presenting sponsor of the Duck Race and will continue in that capacity until the year 2002. Their level of commitment and participation increased significantly not only in ticket sales but also in community awareness campaigns.
Advertising and marketing efforts increased this year. Through the efforts ofBroson Media Consultants, we secured over $250,000 of radio and television advertising. Blue Turtle Sound and General Assembly helped to produce the media for our radio and television spots. We also secured the help of Parallel Creative to help with promotional materials and poster production. Two pages from the Ottawa Citizen were dedicated to the duck race and the Ottawa Sun contributed advertising space throughout the campaign. Television advertisement was seen on CJOH, CBC and CHRO.
10 The prizing was established early in the year indicating a continued commitment from the community businesses. The prizes in order were as follows
1st Prize 1999 Dodge Caravan Southbank Dodge Crysler $33,039.50 2nd Prize 1999 Dodge Neon EX Southbank Dodge Crysler $22,310.00 3rd Prize 18K Gold Bracelet Howard Manufacturing $12,300.00 18K diamond brooch Jewelers 4tb Prize 10,000 Loonies Royal Bank / Employees $10,000.00 5tb Prize Living room suite StarTop Furniture Plus $12,000.00 6tb Prize Living room suite Ormes Furniture $5,000.00 7th Prize Gift Certificate Ottawa Tourism $5,000.00 and Convention Authority
Race Day occurred on May 15th with a flawless performance by our yellow feathered friends. The weather was sunny and a crowd up to 7,500 people participated. Once again, the Canadian military were in full force to help the Kiwanis volunteers with logistics, security and cleanup. We would like to personally thank the members of the committee, the corporate duck dealers, the staffat CHEO, the members of Kiwanis and all the volunteers who worked so hard to make this event a great success. We would like to express our appreciation to the Board for allowing us the opportunity to serve as this year's Duck Race Chairs. Respectfully submitted,

11 SECOND ANNUAL CHILDREN-PRIORITY ONE GOLF TOURNAMENT 1998-99 ------To: The President and Members of the Kiwanis Club of Ottawa
Our Committee was very fortunate to have had a very successful tournament to use as a guide, certainly we had the advantage to build off the first tournament. Vie are pleased to report that our August 16. 1999 tournament netted $59,652.00, a much better result than our budget of $50,000.00
The committee decided to change a few key components for this year's tournament. It was decided to have a major prize for all of our participants, rather than a prize table. which \vould mean some participants would have not received a prize. We negotiated a gift for all 144 golfers with the Senators Hockey Team. We decided not to have raffles so that our participants would not have to dig into their pockets for more money, their $250.00 fee covered everything for the day plus a guaranteed prize.
The tournament was a complete sell out with all possible sponsorship opportunities sold out. It did prove to be a dream golf day and an excellent promotion for our third annual tournament.
It goes without question that an extremely had working committee made this all possible coupled with the support of the Kiwanis Club of Ottawa.
The tournament has the ingredients for success and will definitely be a sell out next year and may years to follow.

13 - HANDS ON PROJECTS COMMITTEE 1998-99 ------To: The President and Members of the Kiwanis Club of Ottawa
The number of projects that were investigated and completed was down this year and accordingly, so was the number of volunteer hours. This also kept us within budget. Our principal project for the year - the 100 Winter Survival Kits that were distributed to homeless people in December and January - was a tremendous success for the committee. Furthermore, the project received considerable media attention, thereby heightening the public awareness of our club.
Other completed projects for the year included: Senior Citizens' Residence - assisted in the setup of a home theatre in the basement of the residence.
RMOC Emergency Shelter - installed shelving in the children's playroom, obtained $3,000 worth of toys for distribution at the home and organized a barbecue for the residents.
Floor Hockey - ProYincial Special Olympics - provided scorekeepers, timers and other support for the weekend games, as well as erecting the boards for the hockey rink.
CHEO Wall Mural - assisted the Ottawa Valley Decorative Artists in painting a wall ,. " mural in the MRI unit at CHEO.
Easter Seals Telethon - provided volunteers on the telephones and in the credit room
Parkinson's Society Walk - provided volunteers at registration
We also investigated a number of potential projects including Interval House, Investing in Women's Worth, Citizenship Court, Habitat for Humanity and the Ottawa Foodbank.
We are proud of our involvement with the Ontario Special Olympics for the past two to three years as it, in part, has led to our exciting floor hockey project for the Canadian Special Olympics scheduled for January 2000. Planning for this major undertaking is well underway.
During the summer of 1999 we held two facilitated sessions in which we recreated our objectives, strategies and general criteria for project selection. The results of this exercise will be helpful for future committee work.
I would like to thank all the members of the committee who helped out to move our projects forward. This is a fun committee which offers much to its members.

14 Interclub, Sports & Social Committee 1998-99 ------To: The President and Members of the Kiwanis Club of Ottawa
The committee's goals for the year were to provide 6 major social functions for the membership of the club as well as to participate in a minimum of 24 interclubs with other clubs in the Eastern Ontario region.
Functions: Catch the Spirit - Festive Party - December 14, 1998 Held at the Laurentian Club, we had 86 members and guests out for an evening of fine dining, great fellowship and some caroling. The event broke even with all revenues covering all expenses.
Mont Ste. Marie Ski-Fest - February 26 & 27, 1999. Once again the committee organized a successful ski weekend where 6 members of the club hosted 48 members and guests to an overnight accommodation and a day of skiing. Price was $55 per person and we broke even on the event; all revenues covered all costs.
Ottawa 67's Family Day - March 14, 1999. 75 tickets were sold to members and their guests to participate in an afternoon game with the Ottawa 67's. Unfortunately, the game was rescheduled from the afternoon to the evening 1 week prior to the game. This changed the family spirit and unfortunately, the turnout was poor. The tickets costs were absorbed by a couple of members and we were able to donate the tickets to Kanata Minor Hockey.
President's Cocktail Reception - Mill pining Lounge - May 26, 1999. 80 members partiCipated and came out in support of President Ian Hendry and to thank him for all his work. We broke even on the event and general feedback from participants was that the event was a little pricey. We have noted this for next year. Again we broke even with all revenues covering all costs.
Annual Kiwanis Golf Classic - Canadian Golf & Country Club - June 22, 1999. We had 100 golfers out to the event. The weather was fantastic and the course was in great shape. Fifty individuals went home with prizes and the feedback received was very positive. We intend to change the venue for next year and will be moving to another course. Revenues did not cover our costs for the event. We fell short $428, however, we covered the deficit by raising $200 during the tournament from a draw for a prize and covered the balance from an Interclub slush fund account.
Turnover Party - Billings Estate Museum - September 24, 1999. A total of 81 members and their guests took part in the celebrations of the President's and Board of Director's annual turnover party. The committee took a different approach to the function this year and held a casual, outdoor event. We provided food, cash bar and entertainment for the members and their guests and although the weather was unseasonably cold and damp, we had a great time. Feedback was generally very positive and members applauded the uniqueness of the event. All revenues covered costs with a surplus of $34.12.
15 loterclubs held: The committee organized 20 interclubs during the year. Attached is a list of the clubs we visited as well as the members who took part in the interclubs. One of the goals of the committee was to visit a couple of Key Clubs during the year and we were able to visit two during a year in which the Key Clubs struggled due to a teacheris work to rule.

The mandate of the Committee was to raise public awareness of Iodine Deficiency Disorders and assist in fundraising to meet our final $10,000 obligation to the Worldwide Service Project to eliminate IDO. Happily these mandates were achieved.
In early spring the Committee got into high gear for our second "Mile of Toonies". We again attracted approximately 40 teams who jointly raised over $5,200 inspired all the way by Dominic D'Arcy, Gilbo Musicall and Restaurant and the Grey Jazz Band. For raising the greatest amount of funds in the two-hour event Trane Canada's team won dinner at Kristy's Restaurant complements of President-Elect Ed Healey.
The event was rounded out by a very successful second lottery. Due to the generosity of President-Elect Ed Healey, Kent Wilkinson and Elliot Melamed, we were able to offer significant prizes including a condo in Mexico, a strand of pearls and a dress jacket. Our members were quick to recognize the tremendous odds and participated eagerly.
The Beamish Foundation kindly donated to our Committee once again this year. It is hoped that Andrew Beamish will one day soon become a member of our club, as was his father.
My heartfelt thanks to Shirley Tomblin, Kent Wilkinson, Ross Hadwen, and Patrick Flain for making this final year so successful.
Respectfully submitted.

17 ... KIWANIS FOR KIDS LOTTERY COMMITTEE REPORT 1998-99
To: The President and the Members of the Kiwanis Club of Ottawa
This Committee was initially established in 1997 as The Scavenger Hunt with two members, Geoff Godding and Tom Moore. The format was discussed in the fall of 1997 and it was decided that a fundraiser in this format should not be pursued. In its place Steve Georgopoulos proposed a format suggested by the marketing director of the Rideau Centre. This fundraiser would be a prize lottery held at the Rideau Centre in October 1998 with the Rideau Centre as our principal partner. The new format plus potential prizing was presented to the Kiwanis Club of Ottawa Board of Directors on February 5, 1998.
A new theme and logo "Kiwanis For Kids Lottery" was adopted. Potential prizes were defined and a marketing plan was approved. The Rideau Centre became a very active partner and most of the committee meetings were held in the Rideau Centre boardroom.
Five major prizes totaling $26,986 were obtained from the following:
¥ $11,100 - Sunfire Coupe courtesy of Turpin Pontiac Buick GMC ¥ $7,000 - European-style kitchen cabinets courtesy of Claudel Kitchens ¥ $3,986 - Ski trip for two courtesy of WhistlerIB lackcombe, Intrawest/Mont.Ste Marie and Air Canada ¥ $2,500 - Merchandise Certificate courtesy of Jubilee Fine Jewellers ¥ $2,400 - Ultimate cable package courtesy of Rogers Cable
The KFK Lottery ran in the Eaton Court of the Rideau Centre from October 16 to 31, 1998, a total of 16 days. Max Keeping from CJOH-TV was present for the launch on the 16th and at the Draw on the 31st.
Corporate teams recruited by Kiwanis Club members and Kiwaniannes sold tickets at the Eaton Court. The final results were: Ticket Sales $14,501.73 Expenses 2.534.08 Net Proceeds $11,967.67

18 LEGACY FOR LIFE COMMITTEE 1998-99
To: The President and Members of the Kiwanis Club of Ottawa
Annual Objective of the Committee Throughout the past year, the Committee has undertaken several steps to expand the knowledge and understanding by members of the Kiwanis Club of Ottawa of the overall aims and objectives of the Legacy for Life Committee. Through a better understanding of the goals of this Committee, Club members were able to plan and provide for participation in the overall aims and objectives of the Kiwanis Club at a time when they may no longer continue to be members thereof. Meetjn2 with President Ian and Past Presidents A meeting was held between members of the Legacy for Life Committee, President Ian Hendry and several Past Presidents of the Kiwanis Club of Ottawa, to receive their input as to the aims and objectives of the Legacy for Life Committee and to receive their suggestions as to methods to better advance the objectives of this Committee. A number of useful suggestions were received, including the necessity to more clearly defme the aims and objectives of the Committee to the membership of the Kiwanis Club of Ottawa. Meetin2 with a2encies outside the Kiwanis Club of Ottawa Representatives attended and spoke to members of the Committee regarding the subject of charitable gift planning from both the Civic Hospital Foundation and the Community Foundation of Ottawa-Carleton. Ideas from these professional fund raisers were considered with some of them being adopted as part of the overall policy of the Legacy for Life Committee. vision Statement In order to more clearly communicate the reason for establishment of this Committee together with its specific aims and objectives, members of this Committee undertook at the beginning of this year to clearly define a statement of our purpose and the basic principles and values underlying the activities of this Committee. Under the careful direction of Richard Munro, a very specific, clear and comprehensive vision statement was developed. The vision statement includes seven basic principles and values. Key planning issues were defined by the Committee in this statement and include:
1. The necessity to develop the platfonn for which the Club will accept plannedllegacy gifts;
2. The necessity to avoid possible confusion or perceived competing with other Kiwanis committees.
For these reasons, the Legacy for Life Committee recommended and subsequently adopted 4 pillars for its plannedllegacy gift program, including President's Wish, Medical Foundation, Select Club Committee and the Kiwanis Club of Ottawa.
The vision statement finally adopted three measurements of success, which include:
1. The number and quality of presentations or communications conducted during the year;
2. The number of individual Kiwanians engaged in discussions about the merits associated with planned/legacy gifts; and
3. A long tenn objective over the next seven to twelve years of raising donations and legacies totalling $1,000,000,000.00 or more.
19 (
Meetjne with the Kiwanis Club of Ottawa Medical Foundation In order to ensure mutual understanding and direction in our fund raising efforts representatives from the Legacy for Life Committee met with members of the Kiwanis Club of Ottawa Medical Foundation. During this meeting, each Committee described their aims and proposed methods to raise funds. The Legacy for Life Committee requested and received approval to include as one of its pillars, obtaining donations or legacies through this Committee eannarked for the Medical Foundation.
Canvass of Potential Donors Having adopted the vision statement and more clearly defming its aims and objectives, Committee
mem bers thereupon developed a program for meeting with members of the Kiwanis Club of 'f' Ottawa in order to solicit their opinions as to the work being done by the Committee and in order to investigate their willingness to contribute personally through the Committee to the Kiwanis Club of Ottawa. Each member of the Committee communicated directly with several members of the Kiwanis Club of Ottawa.
Lea:acy for Life Brochure Under the guidance and drafting of Robert Houle, a Legacy for Life brochure was developed. The brochure is intended to be used as a reporting vehicle to the Board of Directors of this Club and as a means of communication to members of the Club and the Ottawa community regarding the aims and objectives of this Committee. It is also intended to be used as a tool in pursuing donations to the Legacy for Life Committee. Inyentory of Donatjons/Lea:acjes By the conclusion of the year being reported herein, the Legacy for Life Committee had received: 1 . six donations by way of policies of insurance from members of the Club; 2. four donations in the fonn of testamentary instruments; and 3. two cash bequests through the estate of two deceased individuals, resulting in total donations/insurance contracts of testamentary bequests totalling approximately $230,000.00.
I would like to thank all members of the Legacy for Life Committee for each of their valued contributions. Committee members remained active throughout the year, with everyone graciously assuming responsibility for various tasks. The contribution by Committee members made chainnanship an easy task.
Yours sincerely,
Committee Members: Vice-Chair Robert Houle President-Elect John Callan Director Richard Munro

20 MEDICAL FOUNDATION COMMITTEE 1998-99 ------To: The President and Members of the Kiwanis Club of Ottawa
The long-term financial goal is to have one million dollars in the Kiwanis Medical Foundation fund. It was anticipated that through a solicitation campaign seeking bequests, this could be achieved by the end of the year 2000. This effort will now be undertaken by the Legacy For Life program for the benefit of all Kiwanis projects. Realistically, the KMF will have to consider other fundraising initiatives to reach the million dollar target within three to four years.
As of August 31, 1999, the KMF fund stood at $668,030.40, almost unchanged from last year. Interest generated from the fund was estimated at $36,000 for the year. The following projects were supported with grants this year: ¥ Rideauwood / Bell High School Substance Abuse Program $17,000 ¥ Royal Ottawa / Study Substance Abuse and Suicide 9,000 ¥ Heart Institute / Study of Pain Management 6,122 Total $32,122
After a $4,000 Club Administration fee the budget has been totally committed. The following is a summary of grants for the previous ten years: 1997/98 $34,500 1996/97 $56,000 1995/96 $48,300 1994/95 $42,000 1993/94 $35,200 1992/93 $23,400 1991192 $26,000 1990/91 $59,800 Total $325,200
Our major project has been the Rideauwood Addiction and Family Services school based substance abuse treatment program at Bell High School. This is a partnership with the school who identify approximately 52 students from grade nine and ten who meet the criteria. It is a two year initiative that we agreed to support in September 1998. The program is designed to give counseling to young people before substance abuse becomes a problem.
The total cost is $76,000 over the two year period which we expected to support through separate fundraisers. For a number of reasons we were not successful in these fundraisers and we have had to renegotiate a lower level of support.
The KMF June luncheon featured Paul Welsh, the Executive Director of Rideauwood, and Bob MacDonnell, a parent volunteer, who brought home the tragedy of youth addiction.
The Trustees of the Medical Foundation must approve all grants and their names are as follows: Term to Sept 30/99 Tenn to Sept 30/2000 Tenn to Sept 30/2001 Richard Clayman Jennifer Rae Susan Menzies Ian Hendry Jack Woods Bob Kingham Botho von Hampeln Jim Wright Allan Castledine
Harry Brown's recent death is a personal loss felt by all committee members. It is hoped that some recognition of deceased long time members of the KMF can be incorporated in the Committee's letterhead or in some other manner. Respectfully/,um;..d,0r1..

22 MUSIC/ENTERTAINMENTCOMMITTEE 1998-99 ------To: The President and Members of the Kiwanis Club of Ottawa
This past year the committee strived to provide fun and entertaining programs with a bit of Kiwanis nostalgia mixed in. After a highly successful Turnover Day during which President Ian Hendry was inducted to the tune of "The Locomotion", the committee met to brainstorm ideas to make this year a memorable one.
For Remembrance Day, the committee arranged for Lome Smith to assist with a special program featuring songs from the Second World War, complimented with Lome reading his poetry. The committee provided their support to the Parkinson's Society by organizing the carolling for their annual Christmas Party.
Once again a big thank you is extended to Dominic D' Arcy who co-ordinated our Christmas Party and as usual provide fantastic entertainment for the children, guests and our members. Valentine's Day took a bit of a twist this year as "our best laid plans" were sabotaged when our pianists became ill. Not to worry, the committee called in all their "markers" and searched high and low to find a quality act as a substitute. Little did we know that a talent such as "Tammy Bob Wynot" (a/k/a Bob Kingham) could be found in the lounge of the Voyageur Bus Tenninal in Pembroke between the hours of2: 15 a.m. to 2:30 a.m. Many of us witnessed a "change" in Bob as he belted out a haunting version of "Stand By Your Man."
For St. Patrick's Day our luncheon was transformed into an Irish Pub where we were entertained by a "wee lass", Tara Mason who performed traditional Irish jigs. In addition that magical fellow Patty O'Mally (the oldest living leprechaun) returned with his bag of (bad) jokes and the committee led our members through a boisterous singalong of Irish tunes. In September Dominic arranged for John Allen Cameron to entertain our members with his Cape Breton humour and repertoire of songs. This was certainly a highlight for our committee.
No one could ask for a more supportive Vice Chair, than Shirley Tomblin. In addition to organizing our rehearsals, Shirley orchestrated our Newfie Day luncheon. This entailed finding a number of songs that reflected the heritage of Newfoundland and then teaching the songs to members of our committee. Who \\'ould have thought that one day we would see Mike Moore or Walter Boyce performing solo? Shirley also organized the many rehearsals, arranged for the decorating of the Ballroom as well, co-ordinated the induction of 10 of our members as "honorary Newfies" by having them each kiss a codfish, drink Skreech and take an Newfie oath. This was certainly one of our most memorable luncheons.
The year came to a close with an other successful Turnover Day where we said thank-you to Ian & Lorraine to the tune of "Return To Sender", expressed our farewells to the Board using the melody of "Red River Valley, welcomed President John Callan with the theme from "The Beverly Hillbillies" and introduced our New Board to the music of "Daydream Believer."
As with many of our members, we experienced a monumental loss with the passing of our dear friend and mentor, Harry Brown. Harry was a valuable member to our committee and club. Not only could he play any song that was asked of him, (by sight, by ear, by memory), he could easily transpose the key to fit our voices and never miss a beat in the process. Steven's arrangement of "Piano Man" which he played at the luncheon following Harry's death was indeed appropriate. We will miss Harry.
Special thank you to Dominic D' Arcy and Steven Smye for sharing their special talent with us. Their talent was "instrumental" in the success of our committee this year. As well a big thank you to all of the members of our committee who made this year so special!
Respectfully submitted, \ fj Maurice Powers, Chair
23 PARTNERS IN CARING COMMITTEE REPORT 1998-99
The Partners in Caring Committee, thanks to the commitment of the Kiwanis Club of Ottawa and the Ottawa Senators Hockey Club, built on the success of the previous year's fundraiser and, indeed, more than doubled the revenues earned for this fundraising activity. A total of $27,000 was raised which included ticket sales and funds raised from the 50/50 raffle.
Member of our Club and Vice-President of the Ottawa Senators Jeff Kyle, and the Ottawa Senators went out of their way to provide incentives to individuals and companies to purchase groups of 10 and/or 50 tickets at a time.
All members of the Club made their solid contribution in terms of ticket sales but the outstanding performance award must go to Tom Spence and his son Jeff as they sold in excess of 300 tickets to Kiwanians and friends of Kiwanis.
Special thanks also to Bill Siekierski and his efforts to organize a series of creative announcements at the Friday luncheon meetings including none other than Johnny Shatka from the Ottawa Senators and our own auctioneer Elliot Melamed.
Your Committee Chairs would like to thank the people who served on the committee, the people who sold the tickets and the individuals and/or companies that purchased the tickets. This fundraiser's success was only possible because of you.
Special kudos to Shirley Tomblin and her magnificent 50/50 draw volunteers who surpassed all expectations in this aspect of our fundraiser. Respectfully submitted,.-p Tom Pullen, Co-Chair RJ;McHardy. Co-Chair

To: The President and the Members of the Kiwanis Club of Ottawa
The Public Relations Committee attacked our mandate to strengthen the Club's profile and position the Club in the business community as the preferred partner for charitable activities with energy and ingenuity. All significant Club events were publicized through media releases and advisories. These included Canadian Special Olympics 2000, Project Stay Warm, the ACT Foundation, Organ Donor and Retrieval Foundation) Seniors Tea, National Child Day, 1999 Bon Appetit Silent Auction, and the Kiwanis Music Festival. This was a banner year for media coverage featureing our events and the tireless work of the members of the Kiwanis Club of Ottawa.
The ongoing generous support of The Ottawa Citizenwas instrumental in promoting the Club's events. Specific ads featured the Kiwanis For Kids Lottery, an introduction to the new Board of Directors and major Club projects, IDD Mile for Toonies, the Charity Golf Tournament and the Kiwanis Duck Race for Tiny Hearts at CHEO.
The Committee took on four new projects this year:
..J A revamped and renamed bulletin was launched. Page Four, featuring guest members writing informative articles on both historic and current activities successfully promoted Club events .
..J A new Club brochure is in the final stages of preparation and will be launched in the coming months .
..J Messaging and a coordinated "look" have been institutionalized and an information package on preparing for events was distributed in September.
..J The Kiwanis Club of ottawa website has been enhanced and is regularly updated. The website contains access to the calendar of events, weekly newsletters, Page Four articles, historical data, current projects, and features a section containing press releases, media alerts and other useful information for journalists. The website receives thousands of visitors and has been a hit.
Throughout the year, the Public Relations Committee has offered itself as a source of support and advice to committees. Most committees have made use of this new resource for innovative ideas and assistance in promoting their activities, attracting corporate partners, and recruiting members.
I would like to thank the dynamic members of the PR Committee for their hard work, wonderful ideas, and their dedication. We started out as a small team of amateurs who ended up as a seamless team of experts in getting the message out ... and we had fun in the process!

26 SENIOR CITIZENS COMMITTEE REPORT 1998-1999 ------To: The President and Members of the Kiwanis Club of Ottawa
Due to the limited number of volunteers in the Committee this year the activities normally held by the Senior Citizens committee were limited.
LIGHT TOUR: In December, a light tour was held. Forty eight seniors from Ottawa West and St.Patrick's Home were assembled at the St.Patrick's residence and a sing along was held. After a sing along led by several KIWANIANS, and a visit from Santa Claus (Ken Miller), the Seniors boarded a bus and were taken around town to see the lights. The bus was kindly provided by Art Dowd once again this year. The event was extremely successful.
XMAS DAY LUNCHEON: Again this year XMAS luncheon was served to Seniors at the Alex Dayton Centre. The entertainment was provided by Dominic D'Arcy and friends. Santa Claus (Ken Miller) showed up and also provided entertainment. There were over 50 KIWANIS volunteers helping out the event, and many brought their families to help out.
SENIOR'S LUNCHEON: In July the KIWANIS held an award presentation to deserving seniors during the Friday luncheon at the Chateau Laurier. The luncheon was well attended and the seniors honoured were really outstanding seniors. Their work for the community over the years, some spanning a lifetime, was truly inspiring.
SENIOR'S TEA: This year there were over 470 seniors at the senior's tea at the Chateau. The Grey Jazz Band provided the music and the dance floor was full.
BBO: A Barbecue was held at Ottawa West for the seniors. Entertainment was provided by Dominic D'Arcy which was a welcome venue for the Seniors. The event was well attended and the seniors really enjoyed the entertainment and the hospitality of the KIWANIS club.
As mentioned above the amount of activities were limited due to the number of members on the committee but the events were well organized and well attended. An initiative that we have started this year is to document thoroughly all the events, with a task list and an after action report, is such details that anyone can follow the 'road map' and organize the event. This should prove a great time saver in the future.

7. On February 27, 1999, the Ottawa U Club helped out with the 'Rhapsody in Gold' gala ball and auction at the Congress Centre with proceeds helping to support research on Crohn's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis. One of their Circle 'K' members is involved with this every year.
8. Attendance by both Ottawa and Carleton University Circle 'K' members at our Friday lunches was frequent and enjoyed by all.
Our February meeting of the Circle 'K' Committee recommended that we approach the Programme Committee to book a Circle 'K' Day at our Friday Luncheon for next year between February 7 and 13th, 2000, which is Kiwanis International Circle 'K' Week.
A new event this year was a 'Cocktail Evening' for Committee Members and Circle 'K' members on March 4, 1998. This event was graciously hosted by Chris Thompson at his home. It was very generous of he and his wife,Sallyanne, to extend this welcome to our committee and the Circle 'K' members.
This year saw another new development for our Circle 'K'ers, with a scholarship being awarded to Haili Wang of the Ottawa University Circle 'K'Club. The confirmation of the scholarship did not come through until after the August Internation Circle 'K' Conference, and Haili was already off to another university in western Canada, so no formal presentation was possible at our luncheon meeting.
29 All students in the Ottawa Club filled out a profile, highlighting their area of study and career aspirations to help the Committee to pair them up with professionals in our Kiwanis Club when they attend lunches or for possible other Club activities.
The Committee did have a desire to start up a new Circle 'K' at St. Paul University, but held off on this initiative, trying instead to focus on strengthening the Carleton University Circle 'K' Club.
We did have a particularly frustrating effort with Carleton University, having met with Rob McMillan, the acting President of the Carleton University Circle 'K' Club and the members of that Club on a number of occasions. It was formally recognized as a Circle 'K' Club, so the presence at Carleton is ongoing. Hopefully the leadership in that Club will become stronger in the next year.

30 SPONSORED YOUTH - KEY CLUB COMMITTEE 1998-99 ------To: The President and Members of the Kiwanis Club of Ottawa
Chairman - Howard Lithwick, Vice-Chairman Mike S1. Louis, Vice-President Eddy Cook, Director Janet Dodds, May Barnes, Roseanne Beamish, Michael Chambers, Harold Geller, Frank Hegyi, Bruce Killen, Ed Madronich, Murray McKeage, Judy Morrison, Brad Ronald, Stephen Smye, Mike Zanon
Notwithstanding the fact that there was disruption of school activities, at the beginning of the year, resulting from teacher job action, our key club members were able to prevail and have what was one of their best years ever in terms of both programming and inter-relationships between key clubs. It should be noted that our committee had several superb kiwanians who worked very hard to ensure the success of our sponsored key clubs and the kind of guidance and leadership which is always necessary to guarantee such excellent results.
I want to express my sincere appreciation to my Vice-Chairman, Mike St. Louis, who went "way beyond the call of duty" In supporting me on this Committee and was all that a Vice-Chairman should be, and more; I have no doubt that he will make a top-notch Key Club Committee Chairman. I have thanks, also, for Janet Dodds, for her continuing support as a Director, and to Roseanne Beamish, Michael Chambers, Harold Geller, Ed Madronich, and Judy Morrison for their continuing efforts to ensure the success of our sponsored key club youth.
Glebe High School Key Club The Glebe High School Key Club had an excellent year because of its fine leadership from its President, Josh Frame, its teacher advisor, Joan Tomiuk, and its Kiwanis advisors, Mike St. Louis and Judy Morrison. Its successful service projects included the selling of crocus flower bulbs with the proceeds going to the C.N.I.B., a white ribbon campaign to promote the halting of violence against women, the volunteering at Cambridge Public School to assist in an after-hours reading program, the collection of $200.00 for the campaign to eradicate 1.0.0. and the collection of $125.00 for the Coalition for Gun Control (the presentation of these funds was made, directly, to a representative of this organization, at one of our Friday luncheon meetings. The Glebe Key Club members also carried out fund-raising through pizza sales and attended the key club Regional Training Conference.
As most of the club members graduated at the end of last year, it will be necessary for this club to recruit, successfully (although I have been told by Mike St. Louis that a good start has already been made in this direction for this coming year).
31 Lisgar High School Key Club Leadership of this Key Club was provided, in super fashion, by its president, Lesley Bilton-Bravo and its vice-president. I am sure that you will remember both of these young ladies from their roles at the Key Club Day luncheon, Lesley as the chairperson of the meeting and Rachel for her beautiful singing performance (along with Naomi Levitz, the president of the Sir Robert Borden High School Key Club). The club was ably supported by its teacher advisor, Mary-Lou Boyle, and Kiwanians, Harold Geller and Roseanne Beamish. The Lisgar club had excellent attendance at the District Convention in Three Rivers, Quebec, and at the Regional Training Conference in Ottawa. The major emphasis program for this club involved working with students at Elgin Street Public to teach them songs which the students then performed at Blair House ( a retirement home on Gilmour Street). Lisgar key club members also played a major role in our duck race, this year, selling 300 tickets and raising $1,500.00. Recruiting will be very important for this club, as well, since many of its Ustalwarts" have graduated (although they may be candidates for our Circle K clubs and Carleton and Ottawa Universities).
Nepean High School Key Club The Nepean High School Key Club was fortunate to have a strong club membership, two members of the District Key Club Board in the persons of Julia Valley (the District Lieutenant-Governor) and Elizabeth Johnston (the District Translator and, this coming . year, the District Governor), and a superb preSident, Alex Anglin. The result was that this club was highly motivated from day one, even without the guidance of a teacher advisor at the beginning of the year; it was also a real benefit that the school principal, Neil Wyatt, was supportive of key club meetings taking place as long as a kiwanis advisor was in attendance.
Among this club's achievements were its annual and very successful canned food drive in support of the Youth Services Bureau, the presence, again, this year, of 3 of its club members on our Kiwanis Club's Duck Race Committee, an excellent assembly presentation on Shaken Baby Syndrome (which was organized single-handedly by its club's Vice-President, Sawitri Mardyani), a cleverly instructive program to demonstrate how little it costs to fight Iodine Deficiency Disorder, a bake sale, the proceeds of which were donated to the Snowsuit Fund, and canvassing for the Canadian Cancer Society. One of the best Regional Training Conferences, ever, was organized by Julia Valley, with the able support of Elizabeth Johnston, and was attended by members from all of our sponsored key clubs as well as the Bell High School Club and clubs in Brockville and Pembroke. The Nepean High School Key Club also sent a large contingent to the Regional Key Club Convention in Three Rivers, Quebec, and it should be noted that another member of this club, Leanne Campbell was elected the Lieutenant-Governor for the District for the coming year (Leanne will actually be attending Bell High School and will be a member of that school's key club as a result of a move, west, by her family).
The teacher advisor for the Nepean High School Key Club since its inception, Ms. Judith Barts, retired from this position at the end of the year, satisfied that she has
32 guided this club, from year to year, to the loftiest heights of achievement. Judith deserves the maximum of respect from our club members for her efforts and, indeed, has been so honoured, publicly, by our club in the past. The new teacher advisor for the coming year will be Ms. Tracey Friendship who attended the District Convention in Three Rivers, Quebec, to receive an introduction to key clubs in their finest hour!
Sir Robert Borden High School Key Club The Sir Robert Borden High School Key Club had another extremely successful year thanks to the leadership of its excellent preSident, Naomi Levitz, and Melinda Bowie, the club secretary who was not only the effective club vice-president but also one of the hardest-working members of this club. The general membership put in a lot of time and effort to ensure the success of the club programs. The "flagship service program" for this club, from year to year, has been the collection of Canadian Tire coupons to be used for the purchase of toys to be donated to Toy Mountain; this year the contribution from this club was $1,650.00 worth of toys. This program was so successful because club members were able to deliver the toys, personally, and could see, first-hand, the people who were benefitting from their charitable activity. In addition to the collection of Canadian Tire coupons, Sir Robert Borden High School key club members sat on our club's Duck Race Committee, helped to serve Christmas dinner, on Christmas Day, at the Alex Dayton Centre, and ran an impromptu, and very successful, drive for clothes, toiletries and general necessities of life for the Kosovo refugees. In addition, . Naomi and Melinda attended the Regional Key Club Convention.
The teacher advisor for this club, Ms. Judith Miller, is exactly what such an advisor should be; she allows the students to run the club but is "always there for them" whenever they need her. It is also to her credit that she continued to allow club announcements to be made during the teacher job action which meant that the key club was one of the few clubs in the school which had this benefit. We are, indeed, fortunate to have Ms. Miller providing guidance to our sponsored youth.
Summary This past year was one with a late start for our key clubs, due to circumstances beyond their control, but once they got going, they had a year that was among their most successful ever. I am truly proud to have been associated with such wonderful, caring and bright young men and women.
Respectfully submitted.
33 WAYS AND MEANS COMMITTEE 1998-99
To: The President and Members of the Kiwanis Club of Ottawa
This year the Committee addressed some fundamental issues to see in their opinion what valued service could be provided to the Club. The issues addressed and dealt with were as follows.
1. The group should meet only when it has a number of interesting matters to consider and not just for the sake of meeting.
2. While there were a large number of members named to the Committee it was evident that better progress is made with a small core group of members who are definitely entrepreneurial in interest and nature.
3. The Committee felt that it should set a target of finding and setting in place at least one new fund raising project during the year.
4. The Board of Directors instructed the Committee to arrange for a member to sit on each project to ensure that the proper financial controls are set in place for each project. The committee respectfully recommends that this action be taken only for new projects until a reporting format has been established.
5. The Committee attempted unsuccessfully during its tenure to locate a retailer to deal with in operating a Nevada Game. This is a most important matter as it could provide a great source of revenue in the future. The incoming Chairpersons should be asked to ensure that an ongoing liaison be maintained with the Merchants targeted and dealt with during this year. It may take several years to build up the required relationship.
During the term the Committee reviewed 9 varied projects which were forwarded by Members of the Club. The majority of these situations involved all members becoming involved in selling some type of commodity or service. There were two basic decisions, which were unanimously approved by the group, which were as follows:
¥ Where possible the Club should attempt to stay removed from commodity sales which would involve the entire membership and, ¥ No Multi Level Marketing Plans should be considered.
A new project which will be a "Roast" was approved by the group and subsequently by the Board of Directors. This event would be for next year only and should not be repeated in the foreseeable future, as it would not be acceptable on a regular basis. A Chairman has been appointed and a new Committee has been struck for the event, which is now being actively planned.
I would like to thank those Members of the Committee who participated actively in the work along with President John Callan and Rick Barrigar, from the Board of Directors, both of whom added their enthusiasm and guidance throughout the Respetttted.year.

During the 1998-99 Kiwanis year, the Committee directed its energies toward the Shaken Baby Syndrome initiative and the Reading Is Fundamental (RIF) program at Connaught Public School. As an extension of the Committee's work with the RIF program, we laid the foundation for a project on emergent literacy.
Shaken Baby Syndrome - Under the energetic and enthusiastic leadership of Sam Bhargava, the following progress was achieved.
¥ over 1,000 additional Never Shake a Baby! videos were distributed internationally with those proceeds being made available to finance other aspects of the initiative.
¥ a new cover was developed for the video;
¥ the Committee contributed $1,750 to the Champions for Children Foundation of Ottawa Carleton to continue the Kiwanis Cares Emergency Infant Packs Program which are given to young mothers by Children's Aid workers when they leave the hospital with their newborns and they have little or no support;
¥ the Committee continued its active participation on the Regional Committee on Shaken Baby Syndrome, which it was instrumental in establishing, and thanks to the highly effective work of Jim Low, there were two notable results:
i) $2,140 was provided to fund the initial strategy development done by a communications consulting finn to provide the concept and action plan for a public education media campaign on Never Shake a Baby, and,
ii) planning and sponsorship of a regional workshop on Shaken Baby Syndrome for frontline health care and social service workers was undertaken coupled with a Friday luncheon program.
¥ a representative participated in one of the workshops at The First National Conference on Shaken Baby Syndrome held in Saskatoon in May, 1999.
Reading Is Fundamental - Connaught Public School Through the dedication and commitment of Ross Hadwen, the second full year of the Club's support of Connaught was very positive. Indeed, Nancy Douglas, the principal at Connaught, nominated the Club for the Ottawa Citizen's Literacy Award. In addition to the mainstream efforts of volunteer Kiwanians and friends reading to the kindergarten-age children, the following activities were done:
¥ two "fonnal" presentations of books were made to each of the children during the year in the presence of parents, staff and volunteer readers;
¥ the children were treated to a tour of the city and environs on a double-decker bus - what a hit!
¥ new and used clothing, "treasures" for the children, and microwaves were acquired and donated to the school;
¥ reading-based computer programs were provided to the school; and,
¥ a Reading Is Fundamental luncheon program was organized which featured Senator Joyce Fairburn as the key speaker. ...continued

Emergent Literacy Project The Young Children Priority One Committee commenced work with partners, particularly the Federal Secretariat on Literacy, to develop tools, including a video, aimed at "transferring" the latest scientific insights on emergent literacy in very practical terms to those whose individual actions can have an immediate impact upon infants in their care.This is to include parents, health care and early childhood education practitioners.
The articles in the January and February 1999 issues of Kiwanis Magazine outlined these scientific findings and highlighted their importance for the Club's priority of young children. This challenging initiative is being led ably by the 1999-2000 Vice Chair, Ken Nelson. It is directed at educating and animating widespread local progress in improving conditions and actions critical to emergent literacy in the Ottawa-Carleton Region. As well, this will provide an opportunity to create a model for local action which can be emulated in other communities.
The Members - The commitment, involvement and work of the members has resulted in the progress which we have experienced and the momentum which will carry these initiatives forward.
As the outgoing Chair of the Committee, I would like to thank everyone for their support and efforts. Liz Van Den Akerboom did a wonderful job of keeping the Committee organized with her real time minutes sent via Email and Sam Bhargava as the Vice-Chair was simply remarkable.
The Committee members will have to run very hard to keep up with Sam as the 1999-2000 Chair- he is an irresistible force for Kiwanis.

36 YOUTH & COMMUNITY COMMITTEE REPORT 1998-99 ------To: The President and the Members of the Kiwanis Club of Ottawa
It was another active year for the Committee. Although requests were down slightly, the Committee opened approximately 60 files for investigation, excluding Camperships. Of those investigated, nearly half received the Club's support.
The total budget for the year was $22,000 of which $4,500 was committed to orthodontic cases and $1,000 to the Y ouville Centre for student bursaries. That left a discretionary budget of $16,500. Of this amount the Committee spent just under $16,000.
There were a large number of Campership requests this year. Neil McDonald proceeded to review and investigate the requests. Approvals were given to 15 different requests many of which were for multiple campers. In total, we expended approximately $6,000 on Camperships.
Other highlights included:
a visit in March from Dick Stewart, Commissioner of the RMOC, arranged by Peter Clark. Mr. Stewart outlined the role of the Region in administering financial assistance programs. This information was put to use by Peter Weltman in securing the Region's involvement in a very difficult case with great success.
the continued involvement and support from Canada Care Osmotic with our wheelchair program. Canada Care picked up, serviced and delivered numerous manual and electric wheelchairs and scooters throughout the year. With their assistance we were able to meet virtually all requests with little or no expenditure.
the development of a Committee Mission Statement and Expenditure Procedure by a sub- committee comprised of Ian Peddie and Bruce Brooks, which will serve the Committee well in future years.
successful linkage with the Kiwanis Endowment Fund to satisfy a request which was well beyond our Committee's budget.
I would like to thank Vice-President Eddy Cook and Director Neil McDonald for their assistance and support throughout the year. Thanks also to Vice-Chair William Thompson and all the members of the Committee who helped to make this a very rewarding year.
Finally, a big thanks to Rita Harper and Joanne Kane in the Kiwanis office; their organization skills and persistence were of immeasurable value to me in fulfilling my obligations this past year.

AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE KIWANIS CLUB OF OTTAWA MEDICAL FOUNDATION
We have audited the statement of financial position of The Kiwanis Club of Ottawa Medical Foundation as at September 30 , 1999 and the statements of operations, changes in net assets and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Foundation's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. Except as explained in the following paragraph, we conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
In common with many charitable organizations, the Foundation derives revenue from donations and functions the completeness of which is not susceptible to satisfactory audit verification. Accordingly, our verification of these revenues was limited to the amounts recorded in the records of the organization and we were not able to determine whether any adjustments might be necessary to such sources of revenue, excess of revenue over expenses and net assets.
In our opinion, except for the effect of adjustments, if any, which we might have determined to be necessary had we been able to satisfy ourselves concerning the completeness of the revenues referred to in the preceding paragraph, these financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Foundation as at September 3D, 1999 and the results of its operations and cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Year ended September 30. 1999
4. Commitment:
The Kiwanis Club of Ottawa Medical Foundation has committed an aggregate amount of $44.000 to be funded monthly until the end of 2000 to Rideauwood Addiction and Family Services for substance abuse treatment and research in Bell High School. During this fiscal year the Foundation made a $5.000 grant towards the program, leaving $39.000 to be funded .
5. Uncertainty due to the Year 2000 Issue:
The Year 2000 Issue arises because many computerized systems use two digits rather than four to identify a year. Date-sensitive systems may recognize the year 2000 as 1900 or some other date, resulting in errors when information using year 2000 dates is processed. In addition. similar problems may arise in some systems which use certain dates in 1999 to represent something other than a date. The effects of the Year 2000 Issue may be experienced before, on, or after January 1, 2000. and , if not addressed, the impact on operations and financial reporting may range from minor errors to significant systems failure which could affect the Foundation's ability to conduct normal business operations. It is not possible to be certain that all aspects of the Year 2000 Issue affecting the Foundation, including those related to the efforts of customers, suppliers, or other third parties. will be fully resolved .

Incorporated as at September 30. 1999 and the consolidated statements of operations. changes In net assets and cash flows for the year then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Club's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit. Except as explained in the following paragraph. we conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining. on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting prinCiples used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. The Club derives revenue from membership fees. donations and various fundraising activities, the completeness of which is not susceptible to satisfactory audit verification. Accordingly, our verification of these revenues was limited to the amounts recorded in the records of the Club and we were not able to determine whether any adjustments might be necessary to such sources of revenue. excess of revenue over expenses and net assets. In our opinion. except for the effect of adjustments, if any, which we might have determined to be necessary had we been able to satisfy ourselves concerning the completeness of the revenue sources referred to in the preceding paragraph, these consolidated financial statements present fairly. in all material respects, the financial position of the Club as at September 30, 1999 and the results of its operations and cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. As required by the Canada Corporations Act, we report that. in our opinion. these principles have been applied on a basis consistent with that of the preceding year.
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements of the Club taken as a whole. The supplementary information included in Schedules 1,2, and 3 is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements. Such supplementary information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

52 KIWANIS CLUB OF OTTAWA, INCORPORATED Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Year ended September 30 . 1999
The Kiwanis Club of Ottawa, Incorporated (the "Club") is a non-profit service organization within the meaning of the Income Tax Act (Canada) and is exempt from income taxes. The Club was chartered as a member of Kiwanis International in 1917. Its prrncipal activities include proViding services and financial support to various community organizations and projects.
1. Accounting policies:
(a) Consolidated financial statements: The consolidated financial statements of the Club include the assets. liabilities, revenues and expenses and surplus of the Kiwanis Foundation and KCO Non-Profit Corporation. Kiwanis Foundation was established in 1967 as a registered charity with the aim of providing social assistance to a variety of community organizations and projects. KCO Non-Profit Corporation was established in 1997 with the objective of assisting in the fight against the Iodine Deficiency Disorder.
(b) Revenue recognition :
Revenue is recorded on the accrual basis with the exception of donation revenue which is recorded on a cash basis. Endowment contributions are recognized as direct increases in net assets.
(c) Computer, photocopier equipment and furniture:
Computer, photocopier equipment and furniture are stated at cost. Amortization is provided on the declining balance basis using an annual rate of 30% for both the computer and photocopier equipment and an annual rate of 20% for the furniture.
(d) Donated services:
The work of the Club is dependent on the voluntary services of many members. Since these services are not normally purchased by the Club and because of the difficulty of determining their fair value, donated services are not recognized in these financial statements.
(e) Use of estimates:
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
2. Loan receivable:
The Club had a $25,000 loan receivable from the Youth Services Bureau. This loan was secured by property located at 465 McLaren Street. Repayment of $25,000 was made in June 1999.
53 KIWANIS CLUB OF OTTAWA, INCORPORATED Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. page 2
Year ended September 30 . 1999
3. Commitments: (a) The Club leases premises under a lease that expires in March. 2001 . The aggregate annual rentals are as follows:
2000 $ 7.932 2001 3.966
$ 11.898
(b) The Club has committed to provide funding for dental work needed by three local children. The amount committed to is approximately $1 ,900 in the 2000 fiscal year. (c) The Club has committed to raise on a best efforts basis the sum of $50.000 for Special Olympics 2000.
4. Restrictions on net assets: Of the net assets restricted for endowment purposes, $5.000 is subject to externally imposed restrictions. stipulating that they be maintained permanently. Investment income on $5.000 (1998 - $5.000) is to be used by the Director of the Club for Club welfare purposes. The Club has committed $9.130. being the net proceeds from the "Never Shake a Baby" video project. to provide funding for future activity related to the project.
5. Comparative figures: Certain of the comparative figures have been restated to conform with the current year's presentation.
6. Uncertainty due to the Year 2000 Issue:
The Year 2000 Issue arises because many computerized systems use two digits rather than four to identify a year. Date-sensitive systems may recognize the year 2000 as 1900 or some other date. resulting in errors when information using year 2000 dates is processed. In addition. similar problems may arise in some systems which use certain dates in 1999 to represent something other than a date. The effects of the Year 2000 Issue may be experienced before, on , or after January 1, 2000, and, if not addressed, the impact on operations and financial reporting may range from minor errors to significant systems failure which could affect the Club's ability to conduct normal business operations. It is not possible to be certain that all aspects of the Year 2000 Issue affecting the Club. including those related to the efforts of customers, suppliers. or other third parties. will be fully resolved.
