From the desk of President Bob
My thanks to 1st Vice President Gerhard Weber for stepping up to cover the December Board meeting. My apologies to the Board. I don't what I had, but didn't want to pass it along.
Please join us at the December Meeting as we celebrate Christmas.
The Fruit Sale project is in full swing. Fruit will be delivered and packaged for sale December 8 and 9.The pickup dates are December 10-11-12, (no Sunday pickup this year).
The 1st half of my term as President has been fast paced, to say the least. We have added 9 new members—fantastic!
Unfortunately, we have also lost several members for a variety of reasons, bringing our membership to the lowest point in several years. The two words we go by, "WE SERVE," extends not only to our community, but to our friends, fellow Lions, and other Lions. We are Lions because we care about what we do. This is why we should extend the opportunity to others to join us.
