Look For New Opportunities To Serve

Hey Team!

      We are off and running on our new Lions year.  I am hoping to make it an eventful year for all of us.   My first stop will be in Jordan Valley with many to follow.

     We all love the time spent with other Lions and get great satisfaction from helping others in our communities.  Keep up the enthusiasm, keep smiling and spread our goodwill to everyone in our communities.  Look for new opportunities to serve and don't be afraid to think a bit out of the box.   We do many things but can always find more places where we can help.

     Let's build our membership by showing others how they can join and help to enrich their lives and our communities.  Some may not be able to put on their boots and work but can bring in new fresh ideas.  Listen to all members as they all need to have a say and be heard for the team to flow like a well-oiled machine. 

     Lions are the best volunteers in the world and part of the best team in the world!  Keep your enthusiasm flowing!!!

Will you not help me hasten the day when there shall be no preventable blindness; no little deaf, blind child untaught; no blind man or woman unaided? I appeal to you Lions, you who have your sight, your hearing, you who are strong and brave and kind. Will you not constitute yourselves Knights of the Blind in this crusade against darkness?
