Kiwanis of Greenville
Kiwanians introduced to Children’s Theater Club 

Patty Kries introduced Michael Bitner, Director of the Children's Theater Club.  This group gives kids from kindergarten through 12 grade an opportunity to participate in music theater productions.  Their third show “High School Musical” played April 19-21.  Next fall they plan to do “Narnia.”  They are one of only four groups invited to perform before 3000 people at the National PTA Convention in Cincinnati this summer. 

Bitner had said that the group typically performed before 30 or 40 people. When asked how they felt about doing a show in front of 3,000, Tanner said he was nervous. 

Chloe disagreed... 

“I’m not nervous,” she said. 

Michael said it's a joy to see how the kids grow.  Chloe Cox and Tanner Delk sang two songs from the show. 

Kiwanis is a local community service organization that meets for lunch every Wednesday at Chestnut Community Center at the Brethren Retirement Community. Interesting speakers on a variety of topics, from other community service organizations to local government officials, are presented to the group each week. All interested local residents are encouraged to stop by and join the fun.
