FATHER’S DAY WEEKEND As you can see from the calendar, this is going to be a very busy weekend for the Lions. This year for the first time, the band will be playing in downtown Geneseo instead of the city park. Your Lions club will be selling sandwiches, drinks and funnel cakes at the intersection of First Street and State Street from 6to 10PM. Saturday we will switch to the City Park and resume operations from 10AM to 5PM. Sunday will find us additionally organizing the annual Father’s Day Parade.

NEW PURCHASE
Since our current funnel cake fryer requires a 220 volt 50amp source of power, the club decided to buy a new propane fired fryer which will allow us to participate in almost any venue.
CELEBRITY We have a celebrity in our midst. It has been noted that Lion Sandy Griffin shot a “hole in one” on May 13 at the Geneseo Country Club. WAY TO GO SANDY !!
LIONS HEARING SCREENING The Lions of Illinois hearing van will be providing a free screening to all who want it from 9Am to noon in the southwest area of the Jewel parking lot. Set up time is 8:45 AM. Contact Lion Bill Dial (944 3000) to help.
