Dr. Bob Harwood has reported that Vendors Supply will be soliciting businesses in Chanute to expand the gum/candy machine fundraising project for the Chanute Kiwanis Club. Sponsorship of the machines have decreased over the last couple of years and in order to continue to provide service to the Chanute area the company is soliciting additional industrial and retail locations. If you can help with the expansion efforts please contact Dr. Bob at Harwood Animal Hospital, 431-7600, or Dr. Don McReynolds at Animal Medical Center, 431-0110. Proceeds from the candy machines benefit the Chanute Kiwanis program of work.
