Jim Phelps poured his heart into the Statesboro Kiwanis Club in recent years, and Thursday the group gave back. During the Kiwanis Club’s 53rd Anniversary Celebration held at the Kiwanis Fairgrounds Community Center, Phelps was named 2012 Kiwanian of the Year. The retired teacher, and seven-year veteran of the club, was provided a standing ovation while accepting the organization’s highest honor — one that caps a tumultuous pair of years.
