Hello everyone!

The leadership forum was nice once we found it. They had good speakers.  We did get all the money that we received handed out to those who were in the flood.  Our all city breakfast is January 20th.  It was changed as there so many things going on in March.  Maybe the Christmas Committee should start meeting.  It will soon be that time of the year again.  Everyone remember to come up with a clean joke!
See you at the meeting!
Yours in Lionism,
President Tracy Braaten
