What makes us unique?

• We use our Civitan beach house for inductions,
  workshops, and gatherings with other Junior
  Civitan clubs in the district.
• Junior Civitan is the only organization with a
  medical research facility and the findings in
  mental physical disabilities are sent to the
  medical community worldwide. We make a difference
  not only in our city, our state, our country but
  also around the world.
  Ms.
  Debbie WhiteOur club raises money to help make
  this possible.
• We promote a friendly club atmosphere in which
  ALL of the members get a say in future activities
  and projects.

Slightly Biased Quotes from Current Civitans

• "Civitan's the friendlist!" Carly Rae Zent
• I feel like I belong in Civitan. I can't express
  how much fun giving back to the community is when
  it's with a group of loving friends, which all
  the members here quickly become. Todd (Ms.
  Relay 2010)
• Why do I like Civitan? it could be because of
  the friends around the world I've made. It could
  be because I have a lot of friends in the club.
  or it could be because I like knowing that money
  raised for Civitan goes to help children with
  disabilities at the Civitan Research Center.
  Nate
• I saw how Civitan was a very close-knit group of
  people who shared the goal of being the best
  people they can be while trying to MAKE THE WORLD
  A BETTER PLACE, and I decided that that was what
  I wanted to be a part of. -Harvey
