Lion Steve mentioned that there was goody bag stuffing party at his house at 6:00 P.M. and that raffle prizes, speaker system will need to be loaded into Lion Mike Martins truck. Lion Ray Lancon talked about the Pre-tournament golf at Summit Point on Friday (currently 22 players) with the party at Lion John and Leslye Noone’s home starting at 5:30 P.M. A group of Lions went to John and Leslye’s home on Wednesday and prepared it for the party. Lion Eli would like all Lion’s involved in the golf tournament at Moffett Field between 8:00 and 8:30 A.M. for set up. Lion Ray Gamma requested a tent for his photo taking and Lion Jim G. and Lion Dan Fimby will set up the Firehouse Grill and Brewery tent for the free beer. Lion Eli said to remember that we will need help cleaning up after the golf tournament.
Good of the Order – Lion Eli mentioned that the city of Sunnyvale was having a October Fest Street fair on October 2nd and 3rd from 10:00 A.M. to 5:00 P.M. and we should try to support the Firehouse Grill and Brewery who will participate in the fair.
Lion Ray L. also mentioned that the Cupertino Host Lions club was going to provide support to the A.J. Robinson van on Sept. 25th at the Cupertino Fall Festival since we were supporting our annual charity golf tournament the same day.
Lion Al mentioned that the lady we are helping to get an eye operation has had her final exam and the results were sent to the Lions Eye Foundation for final approval. If they give their final approval she will have a cornea transplant.
Opportunity Drawing – Congratulations, Lion Eli won again. I guess it is his just reward for all the hard work he has done on the golf tournament.
