| Kiwanis California-Nevada-Hawaii Division 26 Lt. Governor, Cherice Gilliam, conducted the installation of the officers and board members at the Kiwanis Club of Moraga Valley's annual Installation Dinner Sept. 27. The master of ceremonies was early Kiwanis Club of Moraga Valley member, and 1999 Moraga Citizen of the Year, Dan Rego.
Graig Crossley, current Hacienda Foundation president and former Moraga mayor, was installed as president. Other officers include 1st Vice President Jason Evans, 2nd Vice President Gloria Eive, Secretary Mike Metcalf, Treasurer Barbara Van Sickle, and Past President Karen Reed.
Mike Metcalf was presented with the 2011-12 Kiwanian of the Year award by last year's winner, Bob Reynolds. The award is given to an individual who is very active in the club's fundraising and service projects, and who fosters the efforts of Kiwanis in the community. Metcalf has been club secretary for many years. In addition, he has served as mayor of Moraga twice, been on the Moraga Planning Commission, and has served in many other government and community service organizations.
Many Kiwanis members are very involved in town activities. During the holiday season each year, members manage a See's Candy store in the Rheem Valley Shopping Center, and they recently participated in the building of the Rancho Laguna Park play structure. The local Kiwanis Club contributes a significant amount of money each year for scholarships and to local agencies that focus on improving the lives of children.
