Other Fundraising For all you lions who hate doing White Cane Days, the bad news is we are doing another one, May 9, in Bonsack. The good news is we are getting them out of the way pretty quick.

Still More Fundraising Pancake Breakfast at Applebee’s at Tanglewood Mall – July 11 Sell your tickets. All you can eat pancake breakfast for $6 for charity is a good deal, so tickets are super easy to sell.

State Convention – May 28-31, Sheraton Premier at Tyson’s Corner. Lion JJ will have all the info.

A Jury Trial was held at the last meeting. Lion Jerry stood accused of making eyeglass recycling volunteers work 2 hours without a break. When volunteers take a break it disturbs Lion Jerry. Lion Lew gently prosecuted. Judge Lion JJ found Lion Jerry guilty. He was sentenced to allow a 5 to 10 minute break every hour. Lion Jerry will continue to be a disturbed individual.
