Expo Honors Stalwart Volunteers, Kiwanis Club

The Ogdensburg Boys and Girls Club Expo Committee are pleased to announce its

honorees for the 44th Expo to be held March 27 th at 3:30 PM at the Expo opening

ceremonies.

The OBGC will honor Ned and Helen Hackett, the long-time money crew Expo

Volunteers consisting of John Kelly, Ron Romano, Joe Tracy and John Wallace, and the

Kiwanis Club of Ogdensburg for their contributions of time, talents and treasures to the

club and the youth of the community.

Mr. and Mrs. Hackett have been great supporters of the club for many years, Mr.

Kelly, Mr. Romano, Mr. Tracy and Mr. Wallace were a fixture at Expo for decades

setting up and tracking all the accounting at the event and providing daily reports, while

the Kiwanis Club of Ogdensburg have been volunteering at a weekly Reading Program at

the club for a number of years and provided monetary support whenever needed.

“Recognizing the honorees is a great way to kick-off Expo. Although some of the

honorees are away for a few months and won’t be able to attend we want to recognize

them publicly and will honor them as well at a later date. The club is only successful

because of individuals and businesses like those we are honoring. We hope many will

join us at the opening ceremony to publicly thank them for their commitment and

support of the club,” stated Thomas Luckie OBGC Executive Director.

The Ogdensburg Kiwanis Club will be among those honored at Expo for longtime support of the OBGC and its members. Pictured are Kiwanis Members Jim Reagan and Angela Fee who volunteer at the club along with other Kiwanis Club members and Key Club members in a weekly reading program.
