Cedar Falls Rough Risers pop corn, clean up trails

The Cedar Falls Rough Risers Kiwanis Club popped one hundred bags of their $7 retail bags of kettle corn for the school's fun fair. The school sells the bags and receives $700. Pictured are some of the Rough Risers in May after the completion of popping kettlecorn for a Cedar Falls Elementary School.

The club donates to 11 elementary schools, two middle schools, and the high school’s “kick off” rally in the Fall - a total of $7,000 raised for the schools. This donation has been going on for 20-plus years. On April 26, club members joined other volunteers in cleaning up 125 miles of trails in the Cedar Valley. The Kiwanis group of six dedicated volunteers (family members included) covered five of those miles and collected three bags of refuse. This is their second year of participating in this very worthwhile project. Submitted by Jim Larson, Cedar Falls Rough Risers Kiwanis Club
