Happy May! Well, we had a bout of summer weather, and as I am writing this it is typical April showers. Hopefully my garden will appreciate this weather.
The first meeting of the month is our annual Youth Night at Damascus United Methodist Church on May 3. It is usually a fun night with entertainment and good food so bring your spouse and come see what our youth are doing around the community. We are expecting a large turn out!
This week we also have our White Cane Days. Please help Wayne out by signing up at least one 2 hour shift. The weather should be perfect for standing outside and spreading the word of Lionism plus performing one of our biggest fund raisers.
Saturday, as White Cane comes to an end we have our first annual Shred Fest. See Lions Joe or Julie if you can help out. It will be Saturday May 7 at the Damascus United Methodist Church parking lot. Come shred your old taxes and buy a plant on the way out from the church plant sale. I hoping for a big Lion turnout!
We still need a venue for our June 7 picnic. It just might be at KL Barbara & Tony’s house! Does anyone have a table or two to lend us? And it will have to be BYOC (Bring Your Own Chair). We could display all of Lion Tony’s tractors! You’ll think you’re back at Gladhills, except we don’t have a green one L
Some of our members will be attending the District 22 C convention in Hagerstown on May 17- 19. Hopefully they will have a good time and come back full of Lion news to share with us.
Can you believe we only have one more meeting at “Home” on May 17?
Our Golf Tournament is June 6. See Lion Bob Snapp or Charlie Hertel to help out.
As we are heading in to “summer” mode don’t forget about Lions. There are plenty of Lion activities to keep us busy. And remember to keep your fellow Lions in your thoughts and prayers. If you haven’t seen a member at a meeting in a while, give them a call. One of the best parts about being a Lion is fellowship. So please Appreciate, Believe in and Care for your Lion family.
Take Care !
