In another noteworthy achievement, Greg Heath, along with Chrissy Heath, received the W. Reid Allen, Jr. Memorial Rose Float Fellowship during their annual volunteer work on the Kiwanis Rose Parade Float in Southern California. The award, presented by the Kiwanis Rose Float Club of Pasadena, acknowledges Heath’s dedication to help create the beautiful floats. Heath serves on the club’s board.
The Kiwanis Club also participated in the annual Chicken Run at Santa Margarita Lake. Despite the chilly weather, club members, led by event chairs Jeff Weit, a retired teacher, and Albert Almodova, cooked up hundreds of pancakes for runners and volunteers alike.
