President’s Message 
Lion President Pancho Sanchez
I am just into my second month as the president of our club, and I missed the board meeting but knew that I had it covered. Unfortunately, too many other board members were gone in July, and we did not have a quorum for the meeting. As you will see below, there are no board meeting minutes for July.
That did not keep us from having a busy month of July. We had our monthly pancake breakfast at the Senior Center. We also assisted the Strauss Festival with their parking control and still had enough members to cook pancakes for the Kohl’s Child Spree that same weekend. There are times that our members make it easy to be the President because they always step up to the plate to provide assistance to our projects.
In the coming month, we are looking forward to roasting our own Past District Governor Andy Anderson on the 15th of August at the Roseville Lions Clubhouse. That will be followed by the Annual International Food Fair on the 17th. You will find links to flyers for both of these events below.
Please join me in continuing the tradition set by our past club presidents in keeping the Elk Grove Lions Club at the top of the list of service clubs in Elk Grove.

Let’s reach out to our fellow member, Lion Sterling. As many of you know, Lion Sterling has been in a care facility since his stroke. His wife sent a little note along with his dues payment stating that he would love to have some visits from his Lion friends. Call ahead to make sure he is not out on a field trip.
