Dear Kiwanis Club, 

Thank you for the Awsome dictionaries!  There are many cool things in them.  My favorite is the information about the presidents.  I've learned so much about them already! My second favorite is the Declaration of Independance.  Thanks again!

This is just one of many letters the Kiwanis Club of the Black Hills, Hot Springs, received from third grade students in Fall River County.  The Hot Springs Kiwanis Club presented dictionaries to third grade students in the Hot Springs,   Oelrichs,  and Oral public schools as well as the Bethesda Lutheran school in Hot Springs.  In all 92 dictionaries were given out.

The Children and Youth Committee of the Hot Springs Kiwanis Club presented this project at one of their regular meetings, and with the full support of the club, they ordered the dictionaries, contacted the schools, and presented the dictionaries to the students with gratifying results.
