2021 Columbia Heights Jamboree Grand Marshal is the Columbia Heights-Fridley Kiwanis
The Kiwanis Club has staffed the Columbia Heights Recycling Center for over 35 years and helps educate our community on the importance of recycling. Kiwanis members, along with Key Club members, volunteer at the Recycle Center bagging compost as part of the Plate to Garden program developed by the Minnesota Composting Council. The compost is sold to support Key Club Scholarships and programs. Another opportunity for Kiwanis to earn money to support their projects is through the Big Peach Sale in the summer.
