Jacob Valintine

Jacob Valintine joined the club only recently and has already set a bar the rest of us will be reaching for. The open house he put together at Mossman Hall in Melrose was a genuine success, and it introduced the Lake Region club to people who had never met us before. That is his instinct at work — through the Lake Area Gazette he spends his days connecting Melrose, Hawthorne and Keystone Heights to one another, and he brought the same care to his first big project for Kiwanis. Welcome aboard, Jacob, and thank you.
