One part of her message was coming together, encouraging each other, helping each other to grow, develop and expand our skills: we can better serve our communities, and in so doing, create a thriving, vibrant and successful district that will attract new and younger members; which in turn, will feed the vibrancy of the district and fuel even more growth.

Lion magi said she will put the Golf flyer on the District web site. Lion Eli said we need to put the golf tournament on Next Door in each community to help bring in golfers. Lion John Noone said he would do a write up to put on Next Door. The major effort at this time is to get Tee sponsors and golfers. All information concerning Tee sponsors should be sent to Lion Ron.
