Oyster Supper
Chairperson Lion Tom Parrish wanted to thank all those that help make the event a success. If it was not for everyone’s help we could not do the things for the community we do. Let us not forget to thank our spouses and family members as well as Leo’s and some lions from other clubs for their help.
District Bowling Tournament
We had two full teams competing in the annual District Tournament, as well as two other Lion members bowling with other teams. There was a District Governor challenge; those that beat the governor’s score of 381 and paid their $5.00 had their names enter in the chance to win the 50-50 drawing. Several of our lions beat the District Governor let’s hope they entered.
Easter Egg Hunt
The annual Easter Egg Hunt was held even though the snow was falling in the morning the event turned into another community success. Lions Phil Deiber and Ray Wolf want to thank all those whose efforts help make the event a success. Let us not forget to thank Wal-Mart for there support.
