 So much to say and such a little piece of paper

 

Our next speaker is very important…..  Darla All of Lenscrafters will recruit us to volunteer for a domestic clinic for children.  Darla would be overjoyed with twenty Lions participation.  The Lenscrafters Richmond Mission runs from Monday September 29 – Friday October 3.  Lencrafters has made it possible for us to give glasses to the indigent for only $50, eye exam included.  Darla’s meeting is @ Byram’s @ 6pm. Weds. August 27.  This is important.  A day and 48 years earlier wrapped in swaddling clothes a boy was born in a stable that was King of the Tailtwisting Lions.  Jay accepts day old presents.  

 

Upcoming events include: Tues. 9/9 Board meeting @Extra Billy’s @ 5:45, – District Governor Lottie House visits us, remember the protocol. – 9/24 Lion Pres. John Farmer paddles us through Slovakia.

 

Good news….  Lion Sasha picked the perfect day for the perfect picnic.  Thank you Sasha.

Lion Jan Kessler and should be Lion Ken Archer led us in “You are my sunshine” and in the background deep in the woods behind Whit Whitley’s Masonic Lodge you could discern the faint duet of Aubrey Stratton and Lion J.B. “Paid up” Neal harmonizing up a storm. 

 

Guests…..  We had a plenty. In no order of pulchritudinous our guests were Sandy Tyson, Alice Langhorne, Teri Topinka and Misty McReynolds.  We had Cheeseburgers in Paradise along with hot dogs, Diet Green Tea, Diet Cherry Pepsi, Chinese Cokes, water, healthy [sesame seed]and unhealthy [potato chips] chips, pickles, cole slaw and two sets of brownies.  Everything was grand or as Misty said: “A, OK!”.

 

Liza ran her own little dog show by introducing her new dog, Super Duper Cooper.   

 

The Lion Rev. Col. Norvell Langhorne of the 7th Calvary just finished his blessing of the food and other worldly things oh about 26 minutes ago. 

 

Macy’s Shop for a Cause will be serviced by our Richmond Host Lions Club on Saturday Sept. 20 all day at Regency Mall.  Sign and resign up.

 

Linda Broady-Myers sure can use your help in soft reminders to the almighty that she’s got a lot more livin to do.  She will be having back to back procedures and recover beautifully in short order.

 

Lion Susan Smith reported that she enjoyed everyone’s messages from the picnic on her answering machine at work.  Lion Rob Blackmore was singled out.

 

Don’t ask Sandy Tyson what she’s up to because she might tell you.   The answer I received was she’s been to Jacksonville, Ogden [she may have taken Lion Janet Smith out to lunch], Nashville, and reports that everything is up to date in Kansas City and D.C.    

 

How does a PAW Editor keep a Lion that has just read the PAW    in suspense?
