Don't Forget:

Tuesday December 2nd will be our Christmas Float meeting at Lion Toby's House. Please contact Lion David at dcvalenz@hotmail.com to get the address or more information. It will be a "Bring Your Own Meat" BBQ and float decorating party. We will also be exchanging secret santa questionnaires at this gathering. It will count as a meeting and as an opportunity to make up a "missed" meeting.
On Black Friday, Lions: Bernie, Toby, Dina, David, Virginia, and Karen gathered at K-Mart to wrap gifts for our account. We made over $100.00! Thanks to all who helped, especially little Raymond Marquez!

November 11th Meeting

We had such a great time! Lion Gov. Kitty Callender visited our club last night. We had a great turn out, so thank you to everyone for coming! There is a district 40 meeting in Socorro this Saturday. Please contact Lion Bryson for more information. We also welcomed a NEW Lion to our club last night, Lion Christy Loya! Lion Juanita Werner was presented her membership certificate last night by DG Kitty. Lion Juanita said, "I am just happy to be a Lion!" And we are happy to have her. The light parade is going to be a great thing. We are not going to meet again this month. We are going to meet December 2nd at Lion Toby's house. Please contact Lion David for more information. We will be getting the float ready. It will be a "Bring Your Own MEAT" BBQ. Lion Bernie will BBQ your meat for you, so bring your favorite cut of meat. Other food will be provided and all Deming Lions are welcome to attend. Also, mark your calendars: November 28 we will be having a gift wrapping table at K-Mart from 8:00am to 5:00 pm. Yes, its time to bring out your inner Martha Stewart and wrap gifts! "It's a good thing!" **The Dec 2 get together WILL count as an official meeting. It is also going to be a time where you can make up any missed meetings. Please show up.** LS David

October 28th Meeting

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!! We had such a great time at our last meeting. It was completely masquerade! We even voted in a new member! I want to thank everyone for wearing their masks and costumes to the meeting. I think without a dout the best costume goes to Lion Karen Schalip who made the best Ladybug ever! We want to welcome new Lion Juanita Werner to our club. She was voted on by unanimous consent of the club. Lion Juanita plays piano beautifully and volunteers her time with the DPS Choirs. She dressed as a flower pot for our meeting. Lion Karen was appointed as the Chairwoman for the Light Parade Committee. We will be meeting the week of the parade to get our float ready. We approved the purchase of a new pair of glasses for a middle school student, which we are very proud of. We are also in the process of working with the Deming Noon Lions to purchase a camera to screen elementary school students' vision. The next meeting will be a LIONS COLORS meeting. Please come wearing LIONS colors of Purlple and Gold! If not, you will be fined $2.00! I hope to see you all there! LS David
