Administrative history
The Kinette organization was formed in Canada in the late 1930's. It was meant to assist the Kinsmen in their work, and to carry on additional service projects which would not conflict with those of the Kinsmen. In 1942 the official name "Kinette Club" came into being at the national convention in Vancouver. There were 52 clubs in Canada. The first Kinette Club in District 3 (Saskatchewan) was formed in Saskatoon in September 1940. In the 1990's there were 80 Kinette clubs in Saskatchewan with a membership of over one thousand.
The Moose Jaw Kinette Club was chartered in February 1945 with 12 members at a meeting at the Grant Hall Inn. Mrs. A. Patterson was elected chairman of the nominating committee along with Mrs. N. Hodge, Mrs. John Oie, Mrs. P. Douglas and Mrs. J. Ingram. The first executive consisted of Mrs.George Maley, president; Mrs. Frank Kindred, vice president; Mrs. Glen Davis, secretary; Mrs. S.G. Stinson, treasurer; and Mrs. N. Hodge, press secretary. The main objectives of the Kinettes are to be an auxiliary to the Kinsmen Club, to carry out community projects with Kinsmen approval, to assist the Kinsmen with their projects and to promote fellowship among the wives of Kinsmen. Until 1988 women could only become Kinettes if their husbands were Kinsmen. With the change in this rule, enrolment increased. In 1988 a vote was also taken to create a "parallel partnership" which gives the Kinettes the status of being associates with the Kinsmen, rather than an auxiliary group. The community service projects and fund raising efforts of the Moose Jaw Kinette Club have been extensive and successful. Among them include donations for furnishings and equipment for Moose Jaw hospitals, Meals on Wheels, sponsoring the Moose Jaw Kinette Figure Skating Club, "Buckle up Baby" infant car seat rental, assisting Kinsmen in the annual Moose Jaw Kinsmen Band Festival, Telemiracle, hampers for the needy, scholarships to students, and donations to many other charities and projects.
