FROM BEHIND THE GAVEL
Hello Ladies-
What a busy month this is! The Peace Poster Judging is
over for another
year. The leadership form is also done for
another year. The diabetic
expo was a success! Everyone who attended enjoyed it.
Our next event is the
Zone Dinner. Shortly after that is our Pot Luck
with Gov. Jack Krage.
Today was Election day. It seems to have a well
turn out! Finally the mud
slinging will come to an end.
Let's hope the weather continues to hold out for the
best! See you on the
21st and the 27th! for those of you I don't see,
Happy Thanksgiving! Don't
eat too much!! :-)
Yours in Lionism-
Tracy Braaten
Pres.
