Visitor – Ms. Susan Hough from the League of Women Voters. Susan gave us information on the background of the League of Women voters. Susan then gave her presentation on the various Propositions that will appear on the November ballot this year. All Lions present asked questions and had a lively debate. We all thanked Susan for her time and information provided.
Tail Twister: Lion Jim G. went directly to Lion Herb as it was his Birthday and had him roll the dice, he rolled an 8 which meant he had to pay $6.40. All was well until Lion Charlie mentioned that it was Lion Ron’s birthday also which meant he had to roll the dice also, he rolled a 3 which cost him $2.40. Thank you Lion Charlie.

It was also brought up that if we can we might do a food drive at the two different stores depending on the volunteers and the Leo’s volunteers.
