The past few months have been filled with wonderful interactions with Lions throughout our District. It is so refreshing to visit Lions Clubs during their holiday meetings, dinners, and celebrations. The power of serving is so prevalent in our entire District - I got the privilege to attend several club meetings, activities and events during December and January. The highlight at each gathering is listening to the successes that each club was able to achieve during the past 12 months. Each of those communities gets the opportunity to experience kindness and service because of the effort of the local Lions Club. I had the opportunity to hand out chevrons to Lions for 30, 35, 40, 45, 50 and 55 years of service - that is so heartwarming!! I attended the 100th Anniversary of the Beloit Noon Lions Club - what an accomplishment!! I also was a first-timer at Dining in the Dark, an event hosted by the Beloit Evening Lions Club. Over 100 people experienced dinner while blindfolded and wearing a bib (OK - I might have been one of the only people with a bib?).
While all the usual Lions activities were taking place, our District Convention committee was working through the details of our convention that will be held at the Madison Marriott on March 8-9th. Registration is available on-line at 27d1convention.org. The convention includes several learning sessions and the opportunity to participate in 4 service projects on Saturday afternoon and then enjoy dinner and trivia night with Lions from around our district. I would love to have you at our convention - please make sure to stop me and say Hi - I will be the bald guy with the Red Jacket!!!!
Thank you for your service!!
