Thank You

Lions,
I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you all publicly for all your dedication and support to the cause of Lions. Because of your hard work, we have accomplished the following: 1.) 7 pairs of glasses were purchased, 2.) The Luna Youth Football League and Deming Dolphin Swim Team were able to have an uninterrupted season. 3.) The cause of Lions has been spreading through our county and state. 4.) A young lady was able to visit New York City. She had never been out of the state of New Mexico! 5.) Donations were sent to the Leader Dog Foundation and NM Lions Band Foundation. 6.) Pre-School children of Luna county were able to have an eye screening because of our donation to the Deming Noon Lions club's new camera.
Though to some these accomplishments may seem small, we are reminded everyday that we are Lions and "We Serve!" Our club may be small. But we are committed to our cause and we hold our heads high as we work for our community.
Thank you to all members of our club. With special thanks to Lions Toby Soderberg, Nancy Hollenbeck, Karen Schalip, Wayne Krack, and PDG LeRoy Rapp without whom our club would have ceased to exist a year ago.
Thank you, thank you, thank you all!

Flea Market

Thank you, thank you, thank you to all who brought items to sell! We made a good amount at the flea market. We will be able to do alot of good with what we made. Think about it this way: We worked for 4 hours. We made a nice profit! Not bad at all! Many Lions suggested doing this as a fundraiser a couple times a year. I think I agree.
A reminder about some important dates:
August 11th: Next Meeting
August 2oth: Duck Race Float meeting
August 22nd: Duck Race Parade
September 25-27: Lions Camp Out @ Caballo Lake
(I will have directions at the next meeting.)
