The Damascus Lions Club participated in the NBC4-Health and Fitness Expo again this year, our shift was Saturday morning January 9th from 9:00-11:00 and many thanks to the members that gave up their Saturday morning to work the LCOF Vision and Hearing station at the convention center. Many thanks to President Barbara Barry and Lion Tony Barry, Lion Mike Thornett, Lion Wayne Marr, Lion Ken Phillips, Lion Charlie Hertel, Lion Chris Fletcher and myself, Lion Jerry Mallack. Secretary Marcia was under the weather and unable to attend; she wished us well and we wished her speedy recovery whereupon we started on our adventure; the day was balmy, the Metro Train ride was uneventful and for once arrived on time. Lions Wayne, Mike and Tony manned the vision station, Lion Chris worked as “your next” caller for the hearing station that was in the new LCOF’s trailer. Lion Charlie worn our lion’s suit and along with President Barbara and Lion Jerry, walked the convention floor to the delight of visitor’s young and old! The vision and hearing stations were constant with visitors and before we knew it our shift was over and it was time to start for home. Before going our separate ways we shared lunch together at Red, Hot and Blue and a fun time was had by all.
Many thanks for giving up your Saturday to help with this worthy project.
