President’s Message 
Lion President Brad Dano
As usual, we started off the year with a couple of projects in January. Thanks to the members for stepping up and assisting us with our projects. We had our usual pancake breakfast on the second Saturday, thanks to Lions Jim and Don and crew. Lion Warren and his crew managed the Pleasant Grove Tri-Tip dinner on the 26th. We have also had a couple of potential new members at our meetings and projects. Looking forwarding to inducting them into the club in February.
