Governor – it’s a title Tom Millham is looking forward to getting used to.

Millham, 59, is governor-elect of the California-Nevada-Hawaii district of Kiwanis. With more than 16,000 members, it is the largest district of Kiwanis International.

The South Lake Tahoe man has been a member of the Kiwanis Club of Tahoe Sierra since 1976. In those 30-plus years Millham has served in a number of leadership roles.

His goals at the higher level are to help the various clubs in the district, provide more service for the communities they serve, and ensure members are having fun. He said it’s about getting back to basics.

Millham becomes governor in October 2010 at the installation festivities in Las Vegas.
