Conroe Noon Lions: Club members support Montgomery County Fair through auctions, concession stand
Audrey Winkle/ Conroe Noon Lions
Howdy, Conroe Noons Lions Club and Readers! The 2024 Montgomery Fair and Rodeo was one for the books! A very big thank you to all our club members who stood on their feet for hours, grilled hamburgers, fried chicken strips and poured on the nacho cheese; you were awesome. And another big thank you to all the fair patrons who stopped by the concession stand to support our cause, we appreciate you.
The Lions Club attended the non-livestock and livestock auctions and purchased several items from the hard-working kiddoes! Our Members Fair Buyers Group spent $10,000 at these as well as purchasing items during Sunshine Day. We were able to purchase a few Grands, Reserves, and several other items; from a quilt to rabbits, and table to a steer. Our joint efforts with other buyers supported many well deserving 4-H and FFA students from all over Montgomery County.
It takes a village to keep this club running. This week’s program was dedicated to voting on the board for the upcoming 2024-25 year. These dedicated Lions will be leading this servant group next year.
