Lion Karen auctioning off cookies from Hawaii.
Lion President Craig, thanks for a job well done.
Lion President Craig brought our meeting to order today. It was the last time he would lead a meeting as president, his tenure being over next Wednesday. Lion Craig called on Lion Jeff to lead us in the flag salute, Lion Bob Line to sing God Bless America, and Lion Dee to do the invocation.
We had several guests today, one was our program Brandon Gridiron, the youngest was Lions Steve’s grandson, Aaron, who will be starting the second grade in the fall and the other two were Lion Jeff’s daughters, Julianna and Kristen.
No fine: Speaking of Lion Jeff, he won the no fine badge.

Lion Dee had another happy buck for a back operation that has finally been scheduled for July 9th.
Lion Jeff was happy one of his daughters turned 10 and also that the Padres swept the Dodgers.

He was also happy for the gift that Lion President Craig had given at the installation dinner, a key chain that Allen was putting to good use, plus, he was happy his brother had not been hurt when he hit an Elk on his way back to California from someplace north of us.
Lion Pat was happy that Lion Allen was happy about the Red Sox.
Lion Craig was happy that he saw his kids on Fathersday, that the Giants had the best record in baseball and that he was going to the mountains.
