Hello Everyone: Thanks to Lion Jey for an outstanding fundraiser with our Annual Day of the Dead Carnitas Festival. The food was great. The decorations were great, and everyone who attended had a great time. Thanks also to all who sold tickets and who assisted with this great event.
We also had a great event with the Senior Center Pancake Breakfast. Thanks again to Lion Jim and Lion Don for their hard work.
No time to take a break though. Lion Jack has already printed tickets for our December Crab and Shrimp Feed. As usual, it will be on the first Saturday in December. Get your tickets from Lion Jack and SELL, SELL, SELL. This will be our last big fundraiser for the year. Special thanks out to Lion Taka for not only handling the raffle prizes for the Carnitas Dinner, he is the chair person for the crab feed.
If we didn’t have such a dedicated group of Lions, I don’t know what I would do for fundraisers.
You are all a great team and very much appreciated.

Lions are in 200 countries and geographic areas. We have 45,000 clubs with over 1.3 million members world wide. We have a dynamic history. We are best known for fighting blindness — it’s part of our history as well as our work today. But we also volunteer for many different kinds of projects including disaster relief — across many borders. We serve youth. Our community projects often support local children and schools with new programs and resources. Internationally, we offer many programs.
We hope you will consider joining our club.
To become a Lion, you must be of good moral character and good reputation in our community.
