An East End charity for children has selected its new team of leaders for the year ahead.

The Kiwanis Club of St George’s held its installation ceremony at Somers Gardens in St George.

David Burgess, a past lieutenant governor for the Kiwanis Clubs in Bermuda, now heads the executive and board of directors.

Keina Rollins will serve as vice-president and Vincent John now holds the post of treasurer.

Another past lieutenant governor, Scarlett Pottinger, has been made secretary.

In keeping with club policy worldwide, the outgoing president, Daron Lowe, will remain on the board as the immediate past president to support his successor.

Also on the board are Altama Burgess, a past lieutenant governor, Corrine Simons-Fiocca, Craig Outerbridge and Marshallene Robinson.

New officers and directors officially take office on October 1 each year, and this transition is not affected by the holding of the formal installation ceremony.
