Conroe Noon Lions: Club volunteers build 20 footlockers for Texas Lions Camp
Rich Sproba/ Conroe Noon Lions
Howdy from the "Greatest Lions Club in the World." The club is humming along with only a few more months left of President, Jason Miller’s, term.
The club and Jason are not slowing down as you can tell from the many options we have this spring to get involved.
The Service Saturday Crew, led by Lions Hannah Medley and Andrew Perry, built 20 footlockers for the Texas Lions Camp this past weekend. Everyone walked away with all of their fingers, so it was a success. At our adopted school, Reaves Elementary, we just finished a Field Day and on the 28th of March we will be on hand to help recognize the kids with good conduct and attendance. Please get with Lion Helen Thornton if you are interested in helping. Next week on the 27th, our Lions committee will review speeches from Conroe High School Juniors submitted for the Pete Brasher Memorial Speech contest. We are looking for some of our smarter Lions to help judge the speeches so please get with 3rd VP Tracy Irvine if you have time to help.
Moving on to our biggest opportunity to serve, it is the Montgomery County Fair concessions. EVERY Lion is (or will be) signed up to work a shift starting April 11th. Past President Charlie Irvine is looking for help since this is a big event and the best event to get to know your fellow Lions. It has always been my favorite, where else can you scream orders to a Judge or Policeman to order up a hamburger or chicken finger basket and get away with it. This is the time to say YES, as Charlie said, to serve. If you don’t show up, you won’t get the feeling of helping our community and coming away with some great stories.
