Lion President Tony leads our Friday meeting. 

Todays Meeting

Lion President Tony led our meeting today and called on Lion John Parker to lead us in saluting our nation’s flag, Lion Bob Line to lead us in singing God Bless America, and Lion Brad to do the invocation.

Lion Leigh won the no-fine badge.

Our secret greater today was Lion Aaron. Only Lion Bob Line did not shake his hand, “money well spent” Bob said as he put his dollar in the bucket.
