PARSIPPANY — Kiwanis Club of Greater Parsippany President Frank Cahill welcomed new member Bonnie Sturm during a Zoom meeting on Thursday, July 2.
Bonnie recently retired from the Parsippany-Troy Hills School system after teaching for 35 years, her first year at Parsippany High School (85-86) then at Parsippany Hills High School for the last 34 years. She was also the Kiwanis Key Club advisor for the past 22 years.
Due to COVID-19, Cahill met Bonnie earlier in the week to give her the membership card, membership plaque, and her pin, then officially inducted her into the club on Thursday.
Cahill said “Kiwanis is something so good that each of us loves to share it. What better way to show our love for our club and our community than to welcome a new member to our club? Today we’re very pleased to welcome Bonnie Sturm to our club. Although not new to Kiwanis, we welcome Bonnie to our global organization of volunteers dedicated to improving the world one child and one community at a time. These times of COVID-19, we are forced to do things a little differently. Bonnie will be a great asset to our club with her extensive experience as Key Club advisor.”
