"Winter Starry Night"
[Registration] [Schedule] [Menu] [Prices] [Attire] [Hotel Reservations] [Directions] [Map]
Come join the Illinois-Eastern Iowa District of Circle K International as we celebrate an event that makes the Kiwanis Family so great. Join us for our annual fundraiser, Holiday Embrace, which supports the wonderful Spastic Paralysis Research Foundation. Holiday Embrace is the largest district hosted event in Circle K International and is quickly becoming one of the largest events in all of the Kiwanis Family. Last year our attendance grew by 50% and we had representation of 22 Circle K Districts present. This year we hope to not only have more attendees from more districts in attendance but mainly we would like to raise awareness about the Spastic Paralysis Research Foundation and the diseases it helps fight. See you on January 10, 2009 in Oak Brook, Illinois!
