Can you believe that 11 months ago I was writing my first President’s message for the Lions Tale? How time does fly by when you are having fun? And it has, indeed, been a great, productive and fun year, thanks to all you, Fellow Lions!
For the events in May, my appreciation goes to –
- All Lions who assisted and attended Youth Night. It truly was a rewarding evening for the recipients as well as the Lions – We Serve!
- To Lion Bernie Duplan who organized and worked the Lions Booth for Damascus Relay For Life – also to Lion Jerry Mallack for helping to set up and getting started. Was great exposure for the Lions and a sense of appreciation for the attendees?
- To Zone Chairman Lion Eloise for inducting the new Leo Advisors and to District Youth Outreach Chairman Lion Marcia for Installing the Leo Officers. The night was important for the Advisors and Youth. They are now ready to start the Leo Club this coming school year early on.
- Lion Martin for attending the Multiple District Convention, going to all the Business Sessions gathering pertinent info while I manned a booth for Cochlear Americas. Also the Lions Tuck and Eloise for coming to attend the Multiple Banquet and the Necrology Service. And yes, Damascus Lions, we are a Five Star Club for the year 2009-2010. Thanks to all!
- Lions Dale Ryan and Chris Fletcher for organizing and working the Clarksburg Relay For Life Lions Booth.
Welcome to new members Mary Kroll, Deborah Volley, Kym Ails and Theresa Sluger, all Leo Advisors. WE look forward to working with them in the coming school year.
