The fish fry is one of the biggest fund-raisers for the club all year. The Kiwanis Club will also sponsor its 15th annual bass tournament on Saturday, May 23, at the Demopolis city landing.

Funds raised at these fund-raisers help the Kiwanis Club make donations to its projects and charities.

Funds raised on Saturday went to work quickly, as the Kiwanis Club was able to make a donation to Demopolis City Schools on Tuesday.
