Last Wednesday Port Clinton Kiwanis Club President Carl Koebel (far right) awarded two long-time and dedicated Kiwanians, Mark Giaco and Anita Gribble, The Walter Zeller Fellowship Award. The award is named after Walter Zeller, who made the first donation to the Kiwanis International Foundation.  The Port Clinton Kiwanis Club made two $1,500 donations to the Kiwanis International lead project known as the ELIMINATE project. The organization globally is trying to raise enough money to wipe out maternal neo-natal tetanus and the Port Clinton Club’s donation is going toward that cause.

Frank Leone of the financial services firm Edward Jones in Port Clinton has been authorized by the Certified Financial Planner Board of Standards (CFP Board) to use the certification mark CFP®.

Leone successfully completed CFP Board’s initial certification requirements, which include completion of financial planning coursework and passing a comprehensive examination.

Magruder Hospital’s Laboratory Department was awarded re-accreditation by the Commission on Laboratory Accreditation of the College of American Pathologists (CAP), based on results of a recent on-site inspection.
