Today, the chapter’s cohesive flock shares the carefree spirit and they’re flyin’ high, with more than twenty members. The relaxed monthly gatherings focus on good times filled with unsurpassed camaraderie. Official business is conduced and concluded within 20 minutes, unless some goofy behavior veers the group off course, but laughter and flexibility are encouraged, because these fledglings just want to have fun. The Carefree Kiwis are team players, committed to one another through a democratic system that ensures a majority vote on all chapter decisions. The chapter newsletter, The Carefree Times, provides informative, entertaining news via email, saving the chapter the expense of printing and postage. The Carefree Chapter’s carefree philosophy carries over to the way they conduct fun-raisers. (The word fundraiser is not used.) The chapter supports Wings Foundation, Inc. through a variety of voluntary, anonymous ways. The chapter embraces its new members, and provides them with a packet explaining the relaxed operational aspects of the Carefree Kiwi Chapter, along with pertinent information regarding The Kiwi Club, and Wings Foundation, Inc.
Carefree is located just north of Scottsdale, although chapter gatherings occur throughout the PHX area. 
Linda Lyman hosted a "Designing Diva's" Party at her home in Fairfield, CT in November of 20007. "Designing Diva" Patti Parks filled Linda's home with jewelry, handbags, candles, scarves, and other gift items. A perfect Flight Attendant get-together.... food, drinks, shopping and friends!

In 2005, when Gerrie Skaggs McAlhany and K.Lynn Hoffmann Yelvington co-founded the Carefree Chapter, they envisioned a group of Kiwis reflecting the chapter’s name. Caring Kiwis with a carefree attitude became the group’s motto and the seven charter members agreed to take off down the runway the fun-way. 
The Carefree Chapter’s relaxed approach, and flexible operational style, attracts a flock of Kiwis interested in thriving within an atmosphere focused on nurturing. Once a month, these Kiwis escape to a stress free haven, where they bond, and laugh, and soar to new heights of friendship.

The Gulfcoast KIWI's have luncheons almost monthly (off I 75 and very convenient from north of TPA to almost the Ft. Myers area) and would love to have snowbird visitors join us. You can reach me at
