LIONS INSTALLATION MEETING

Installation was held on Aug 16th at Concordia Church with 1-H District Governor John Allsworth as speaker and also installing new officers. Outgoing Pres. Keith recognized and thanked committee chairmen serving this past year. He also awarded “Lion of the Year” to Don Wethington and announced the President’s Award to be given to Les and Carolyn Griffin. Lion Pete introduced the scholarship recipients and incoming President Teresa gave out attendance awards.


FAMILY PICNIC

The picnic will be at the Geneseo City Park. Meat and drinks will be provided. Please bring a dish to share and table service. Hope to see you all there. 

ARROWHEAD RANCH

As we have for the past several years we will man a booth for the annual Arrowhead Ranch roundup. We plan to operate three shifts: 8AM to 11AM; 1100 AM to 1PM; and 1PM to 4PM. Contact Lion Pat at 944 1400 to volunteer.

PRESIDENT’S CORNER

I thank all who attended the installation dinner, a good time was had by all.Governor John Allsworth e-mailed to say what a good time he had and would like to visit us again soon.I'm to starting another year with the Lions. It goes so fast with all the projects to keep us busy. I have a goal for myself that I think would be simple for everyone::Pick one thing you haven't helped with before and try that. I've never helped with Highway Clean-up,and I'm determined to do so. There is a way that everyone can contribute, even if it is simple. In conclusion, let's remember to keep Larry and Betty Lamb in our prayers--they need our support more than ever, and we wish a speedy recovery to Les Griffin
