WINONA  RIVERTOWN  LIONS  CLUB

MARCH 2005 NEWSLETTER
Calendar of events



HI FELLOW LIONS,

     Well, I guess Mother Nature decided, it was our turn to get dumped on this time. But, now we’ve had enough, lets hope for some spring sunshine to melt it all.
     By the time this newsletter reaches you, we will probably be tallying our profits from the Breadbowl Supper and you will be putting your feet up for some well earned rest after all your hard work. Thank you for your participation.
     For those of you who where unable to attend our February 28TH meeting – a motion was made to schedule our Board meetings on the same evening as our Regular meetings – instead of holding two separate meetings every month. The Board will meet one hour before our Regular meeting at Grace Pres. Church and April 25th will be the first month that this will occur.
     Remember to bring your Prospective Members list so we can invite them to our Membership Potluck in April. Wouldn’t it be great to be able to install some new members at our June Banquet. Let’s all think positive.
     I would like to encourage the 2005-2006 Board members to attend the Officers School of Instruction on Monday, May 16th at the Radisson Plaza Hotel in Rochester, especially if you have never attended.
     An All City LIONS Club Breakfast has been scheduled for Sunday May 1st at the Elks Club – with the profits being designated for the low vision machine “ Merlin “. I will share more details with you at our March meeting.

HAPPY EASTER!

YOURS IN LIONISM,
PRES. SANDY LUBINSKI
