The Kiwanis Club of Greater Federal Way sponsored a spaghetti feed at the Federal Way Senior Center on Saturday as part of the “Kiwanis 1 Day.”
During the annual event, Kiwanis clubs around the world take on a project of club members’ choosing. The Federal Way club usually serves a free spaghetti lunch to seniors every year, said Dick Mayer, Kiwanis president.
A crowd of 50 seniors listened to Federal Way Mayor Jim Ferrell speak during the event. Other elected leaders also attended the event, including 30th District state Rep. Linda Kochmar and City Councilmember Susan Honda.
Members of the Thomas Jefferson High School Key Club were on hand to help serve and clean up.
