Chipley Kiwanis Club Annual Holiday Fruit Sale Kicks-off October 12th - October 8, 2010

 Chipley, FL, Friday, October 8, 2009.  The Chipley Kiwanis Club announced today that its annual holiday fruit sale, which has been a highly successful fund raiser for many years, will kick-off Tuesday, October 12th, when Kiwanis members will be provided order forms and pricing.

For the third year in a row, pricing has remained basically the same for all package sizes.  In addition to the 20# to 40# boxes of Navel Oranges, Ruby Red Grapefruit, Tangelos, Red Delicious Apples, and the always popular Gift Trio boxes (mixed, citrus, or apples, oranges & grapefruit), the club will also be offering locally grown Satsuma’s in a 20# box.  Exact pricing will be released shortly but will range from $15.00 to $35, with most 40# boxes at $25.00.

Orders can be placed with any Kiwanis member after October 12th until Tuesday, December 7th, with deliveries of orders around December 16th – 17th.   Orders can also be placed through Stones Chipley Packing Company, Hwy 277 or phone 638-0673, and the Community South Credit Union, 1044 U.S. Hwy 90 East, or phone 638-8376.  Student members of the Key Clubs and Builders Clubs sponsored by Kiwanis in Chipley and Vernon schools will also have order forms.  Information will also be available at the Kiwanis website below.

This year the fruit sales will be augmented by the sale of a gourmet nut selection in a 3# designer can that contains no peanuts.  The gourmet nuts will be available at selected businesses throughout the county starting the first week of November with a special marketing rack display.

The Kiwanis Club of Chipley has been providing support to youth oriented events and programs for 70 years and last year supported 31 organizations throughout the county.  The club meets Tuesdays at Pattillo’s Restaurant in the middle of the Washington-Holmes County Technical Center (WHTC) at Noon.   For an invitation to lunch, contact any Kiwanian or call David Solger, Membership Chairperson, at (850) 638-1276.  Kiwanis will be conducting its traditional holiday fruit sale in November and December.
