President’s Message 
Lion President Brad Dano
Hello Everyone: Thanks to all of my fellow Lions for their assistance this past month. As usual, we had a great pancake breakfast at the Senior Center on the 2nd Saturday of the month. Special thanks to Lion Jim and Lion Don for making it happen.
Also thanks to Lion Jey for gathering up the group of Lions to work the fundraiser last month at Jimboy’s Tacos. We expect to hear next month how much we earned for this one day effort.
Coming up this month is the Carnitas Festival. Please contact Lion Jey and volunteer to help. Also, make sure to buy your tickets and help sell tickets for this fundraiser. We cannot do it without your help.
I also want to extend a warm welcome to our newest member, Bob Husted.
Thanks to Lion President Brad Dano |
