August Featured Kiwanian-Mike Schmitt
Mike Schmitt, a local lawyer, is the featured Kiwanian for the month of August.
Mike and his wife Marianne have 2 sons and are expecting their first grandchild in August.
Mike, his wife and both boys all graduated from Kansas State University. In Mike's spare time he enjoys attending athletic events at KSU, traveling and reading.
Having the opportunity to get to know and work with the many different individuals that Kiwanis has in it's membership is important to me.
