President’s Message

Lion President Pancho Sanchez

As they say, time flies when you are having fun. Well, we must be having a lot of fun at the Elk Grove Lions because the year has flown by and I only have a couple of months left as your president. I hope you have been happy with my leadership. I have really enjoyed being your president, but enough of that for now. Back to work as we still have two months to go.

We had a busy April and May will be busy as well. Probably the most important issue that we are facing is the replacement of officers for the coming year. We thought we had a full roster of officers but have had to vice presidents step down in the past two weeks. We need two Lions to step forward, one to fill the 1st VP and another to fill the 2nd VP slots. If you need more time to adjust to moving up the line, it may be possible for our 3rd VP to move up if that makes it easier for you to volunteer to step up. I have heard a rumor that Lion Jack Edwards may be willing to step in as our 1st VP. We will still need another Lion to step up to fill the roster. A special thanks to Lion Warren Weaver and his cooking crew for cooking a Tri-tip dinner for the Walk to Remember. Lion Don and Lion Jim and their crew did a great job at our monthly pancake breakfast for the Senior Center. They served 154 people.

We are assisting with drinks and clean up at the Spotlight on Scholars event at the 1st Babtist Church on May 7th. May is District Convention month; our delegates will be there from May 8-10. We will provide assistance to the Relay for Life at Franklin High on May 16th, cooking breakfast for the Sheldon High Seniors on the 21st, and a pancake breakfast for Adriana Elementary School on May 27th. If that is not enough, during this year’s county fair, May 21-24, we will be providing breakfast on the 23rd for the FFA & 4H students and then about 1,000 students and buyers on the 24th.

Heads up for June as we want to support our friends at the Pride of Laguna for their Brewfest on June 5th at the Laguna Town Hall. We also have the Spotlight at the Ranch: BBQ & Country Bands on the 13th of June. Lion Joe is the chair of the event. We will be handling parking as well as cooking for this year’s event. We will be doing a visitation to Rio Vista on June 2nd and to Fair Oaks on June 11th.

On a final note, please keep Lion Heinz in your prayers. He started radiation treatment in December.

President’s Message

Lion President Pancho Sanchez

Another busy month for the Elk Grove Lions Club. We had our Annual Spring Crab Feed on March 7th. Had a great turnout,too. On the 9th, our regular meeting night, we hosted the Zone Student Speaker Contest. Our club winner Johanna Martin was the winner and went forward to the Regional Student Speaker Contest on 27th.

We had a slim crew for the Senior Center Pankcake Breakfast but everyone ate their fill and we had a great time supporting the Senior Center. We also supported the Sheldon sober grad night fundraiser on the 14th.

We visited the Capital Lions Club on the 19th for a great visitation. We supported another fundraiser for the Pleasant Grove PTA on the 20th and the Wilton 4-H fundraiser on the 28th. Lion Jack Edwards and Lion Warren Weaver joined me at the Regional Student Speaker Contest to support our winner, Johanna Martin. Unfortunately, she did not win that night. We also supported our friends at the Delta Lions Club Delta Tea Fundraiser. Dave King represented us at the 4th Annual Mel Oneto Pasta Feed on March 29th in Lincoln, CA

Although, our calendar does not look as full as usual at this time, we are planning a visitation to the Fair Oaks Lions Club on the 9th of April and we have our April Senior Center Pancake Breakfast on the 11th. Lion Andy Anderson is heading up the 4H Golf Tournament on the 24th. Please check the board minutes to see who is the chairperson for upcoming events and volunteer to assist them with our commitments to our community this month.

We announced our roster of candidates for next year’s office and will be voting on them this month. Make sure to attend the meeting and provide your input to the future of our club.

On a final note, please keep Lion Heinz in your prayers. He started radiation treatment in December.

President’s Message

Lion President Pancho Sanchez

Last month, I talked about the overwhelming support that we have received from our community in the way of online donations to the club to allow us to replace the equipment that was stolen from our trailer.

The outpouring of support has continued. We have raised over $3,500 through online donations via our website alone. On the 27th of February, a fundraiser dinner was held and the proceeds, in excess of $7,000 was raised for our club. That money, combined with the donations from the Soroptimist International of Elk Grove, the Rotary Club, the Optimists as well as the City of Elk Grove and the Elk Grove Auto Mall will put us well on our way to replacing our equipment.

We have proudly served our community over the past 60 years and we are proud to say that our community is serving us in return. Thanks to all of our friends and supporters in Elk Grove.

As to the regular news that you see in my monthly message, as usual we had a busy month. We started off the new year with our Senior Center Breakfast on the 14th. We supported the scouts with the Blue and Gold Spaghetti Dinner as well as helping Michael Lee with his Eagle Scout fundraiser. We also attended the fundraiser dinner for the Lions Club on the 27th. We also kept busy selling tickets to our own fundraiser, the Spring Crab Feed. Make sure to turn in your money and unsold tickets ASAP. We need to order just the right amount of Crab and Shrimp.

Please check the board minutes to see who is the chairperson for upcoming events and volunteer to assist them with our commitments to our community this month. We have our Crab Feed on March 7th, a sober grad night fundraiser on the 14th, a Pleasant Grove PTA fundraiser on the 20th and the Wilton 4-H fundraiser on the 28th.

On a final note, please keep Lion Heinz in your prayers. He started radiation treatment in December.
