Productive Meeting Last Night

Just an update for our online community:

We have been working the concession stand at the Sam Baca Aquatic Center all summer. Thank you Deming for your support!

We will be sending $100 to LCIF, $50 to NMLEF, and $50 to The Leaderdog Foundation!

PDG LeRoy Rapp was presented with the President's Appreciation Medal at the meeting last night. He is a great asset to LCI and an even greater asset to Deming Lions! We are so proud to call him friend.

We will be sponsoring the Deming Dolphins Swim Meet THIS SATURDAY at the Sam Baca Aquatic Center from 7am - 12noon. All Lions are welcome and encouraged to attend.

See you all soon I hope!

A New Name--- Same Club

Lions and Lion Fans,
I am pleased to announce that the Deming Wildcats Lions will now be know as The Luna Evening Lions Club. We have successfully petitioned Lions International to change our name and they have approved the change. We are proud of our new name! We believe this new name will help lessen the confusion by our local community and show our support to our ENTIRE county!

Please update your records with our new name! Thank you!

Lion David, President of Luna Evening Lions

Remember When...

....Lions Karen and David celebrated their birthday month. So much fun!

Lion of the Year!

Lion Nancy Holenbeck was named the 2010 Lion of the Year by her club peers! We congratulate Lion Nancy on her achievement. PDG LeRoy Rapp was on hand, as always, to present the award.

Lion Toby Soderberg was given an award by Lion President David at the last meeting. The award was for his great service as this club's Secretary and Treasurer!

Next Meeting

Lions:
We will have a couple of very special presentations at our next Lions meeting on the 22nd of June. I hope to see you all there! We will also be discussing a very important change for our club. I urge all members (in good standing) to attend. A vote will be held!


Also, our first meeting in July will be where we set our "Goals" for the coming year. All suggestions are welcome!

I can hardly contain myself. The excitement is building!!

Wildcats Lions Updates!

Well, I'm finally updating the blog! I know it has been a while, but it has been an equally busy time the last few months!

Updates:

• Dog Show: Went very well! Tremendous thanks to Lion Toby for his leadership and direction on this project and to Lion Nancy for her securing so many fantastic sponsors!
• Easter Egg Hunt: A great community service project for all! We hid over 1,000 eggs this year again and it was fun! We had about 40 kids ages 18 months-12 years old participate! Lion Maria was brave enough to dress up as the "Easter Bunny" for us.
• New Officers: At the last meeting, we voted on a new roster of officers for Lion Year 10-11. They are as follows:
  President: David Valenzuela
  Vice President: Karen Schalip
  Secretary/Treasurer: Toby Soderberg
  Membership Director: Barb Rapp
  Tail Twister: Nancy Hollenbeck
  Lion Tamer: Wayne Krack
  
  Congrats to our officers! You are entrusted with the task of LEADERSHIP. Welcome Lion Barb to the list of officers! We have some great projects ahead for you (and us all)!

The next meeting will be April 6 at Rancher's Grill. We will NOT be meeting on the 2nd Tuesday this month.
