Kiwanis Club of San Marcos helps local school with garden project

In just a few hours this last Saturday, the Kiwanis Club of San Marcos cleaned up and helped to replant a new garden at San Marcos Elementary School. Fourth grade teacher Mrs. Griley was in charge of the project and made contact with our club to get involved.

The garden is a wonderful learning tool for the children on many levels and also helps to feed some of the needier families that have students attending.

The Kiwanis Club of San Marcos does many projects to make the community a better place to live and enhance the lives of the children in North County San Diego.
