Tail Twister – Lion Tail Twister Herb received a Happy Dollar from Lion Ray for the new Saratoga Lions club and the meeting he went to and met three people from Staten Island, New York. Lion Steve rolled the dice for his birthday and rolled a nine and promptly gave Lion Herb ten dollars for the kitty. Lion Dagi gave a sad dollar now that we are passed the summer solstice and the days are getting shorter.

Golf Tournament – Lion Ray said the preliminary numbers on the golf tournament are about $12,400 with sixty-four golfers we did quite well. Lion Steve said the silent auction sold all of the items and brought in $1,555. Thank you goes out to Lion’s Amy, Jenni, Claire, Jen, Carl, Charles, Steve & Ellen, and Jill for taking on the major responsibilities. Lion Ray wanted to thank Lion Jerry Tammi for his emergency run to the closest store to get ice since Moffett ran out of ice for the beer tent. Special thanks go out to Lion’s Carl and Herb and Herb’s friend Steve Hoy for putting up all the sponsor banners. A big thank you to Lion John Noone for doing an excellent job with the electronic sponsor sign. Lion Dagi said she would try and get the email addresses for the golfers to send pictures of their foursomes to them. A big thank you to Wendel Stevens and the Rotarians for supporting our golf tournament.
A grateful Thank You to Lion Scott Harris for loaning his pickup truck to us to use during the tournament we could have not done it very easily without the use of his truck. Lion Ray would like to set up the date for next year as soon as possible so it works out for everyone and dates are still open at Moffett. Lion Ray said we need to do a couple of things better next year and will be brought up at following meetings.

Good of the Order – Lion Steve mentioned the Budget/Board meeting on Saturday June 23rd at Lion Al’s home starting at 3 PM. Anyone who has a charity they would like to fund should present it at the meeting. All of the charities we have supported over the years will be reviewed to make sure they are still good ones to donate to.

Opportunity Drawing – Congratulations to winner Lion Dagi.

Lion Ron Ahearn
