President’s Message 
Lion President Brad Dano
Hello Everyone:
The warm weather has lent itself to some last minute vacations before the kids go back to school. Our club kicked off September with the annual Shortline Lake Ski Competition. Lion Sharon lead the cooking crew in serving a fantastic Tri-Tip dinner to all of the competitors and their families.
The following weekend was particularly busy with two events happening on Saturday. In the morning, we had the Senior Center Pancake Breakfast where the cooking crew lead by Lion Don and Lion Jim served 90 adults. Later in the evening, Lion Andy and his bar crew served drinks to the Elk Grove High School’s 40th Class Reunion. It seems a good time was had by all.
At the last general meeting of the month, our club was honored by a visitation from District Governor Doug Wight, who brought home the importance of our club’s roll in the world we live in.
