Lion Miriam

Lion Miriam gives her program on Kaweah Health. 

Brent and Betty

Lion Betty helps Lion Brent (our new first vice president) draw for the coveted white marble, but he came up short. 

Our meeting today: Lion president Aaron lead the meeting today and called on Lion Bob Line to lead us in singing My Country Tiss of thee, he called on Lion Brent to lead the pledge and Lion Tom Link to do the invocation.

Announcements: Lion Steve read the slate of new officers for the 2022-23 year and a vote was taken. The club voted unanimously to accept the officers as announced (what a shock)

The installation dinner is this coming Thursday at the Vintage Press, 5:00 happy hour, 6:00 dinner. Call or text Lion Aaron at 408-568-2533 to let him know if you will be there and how many will be attending. cost is $30 for Lions members and $40 for guests. Menu

No fine Badge went to Lion Bob Line. The club is now considering taking out a loan to cover the shortfall. 

Auction Items 

Lion Allen had been to Anaheim to watch the Redsox play the Angeles, he went to Bubba Gumps while he was there and picked up a bottle of Cajun hot sauce which he auctioned off.  Lion brent purchased it for $8.

Lion Tom had been to the coast but did not bring back anything to auction off so he donated $10

Lion Brent had been to Puerto Vallarta Mexico and the Bay Area since his last visit to the club but also didn’t bring back anything to auction off so he gave $20.

 

Happy Bucks 

Lion Miriam was happy her dad was visiting us from LA. She was also happy that she got a bunch of glasses from Kaweah Health to give to the Lions.

Lion Dee was happy that finally, after six months, he has a date for back surgery. One bad thing about that is that it’s this coming Thursday the 23rd, so he will have to miss the installation dinner.

Lion Pat was $20 happy that three of his nieces are in town.

Lion Karen was happy the Giants swept the Dodgers the past weekend.

Lion Craig was also happy about the Giant’s sweep. He was also happy that he will begin his hike in the Alps next week.

Lion Alan was happy that he got to go watch the RedSox in Anaheim with his son and daughter. He was also happy that he was going to Vegas next week with his other son and his daughter.

Lion Roy was happy that Little league was finished for the year in Farmersville, as his grandson had been playing to the Giants. He was also happy that his favorite horror film, John Carpenters’ The Thing was in theaters this coming week, for the 40th anniversary. 

Fines

Lion Dee fined Tom Link because several years ago they had an agreement to take each other to lunch on their birthday, and at Colimas the owner had given them a free lunch when Dee had been the one to pay, now the owner offered the same deal to Tom.

Lion Dee also fined Lion Pat because Pat’s freezer recently when out on him and instead of giving away all the meat that was in it, Pat let it go bad.

Lion Craig was our greater today and he was able to get money from all of one table and Lion Roy.

Todays Program

 

 

 

 

Our own Lion Miriam was the program today. She is employed by Kaweah Health as a patient experience manager. She is one of two people who help with the experience patients have when they interact with the hospital. Much of what she does is take complaints and work through them to help make sure that the same situation doesn’t happen again.
