I am delighted to report that the Lion's Host Club raised $ 670.46 at the Post Office. Wow, that's great! You did an outstanding job.
Thank you so much for all that you did to make Saturday such a great morning at the Post Office. The members of Lima Sr. High Band did an excellent job as well. Groups playing at the kettle is a tradition that brings smiles on many faces as people past by and drop donations off for the Army.
Be sure to thank the club in my behalf and I will follow this message with an official letter of thanks to the club.
Many Blessing!
Maj. Phil

I hope everyone is having a great day despite the gloomy weather. A great chance to sell flowers though don't you think. Something to brighten everyone's day.
Since I found at the Board meeting not everyone has gotten a sales pack from Lion Todd...Here is some important information that will allow you to sell flowers without the packet.
First - the Flowers are $11.00 a dozen and they will be delivered in a long stemmed flower box. If anyone asks the Lion's get 50% of the $11.00 and all the money the Lions collect goes to community programs including support of the Star Light Club, Free Glucose Testing, Free Vision Testing and Glasses as well as support for school programs. Feel free to gloat a little when you speak with folks.
Second - Collecting Money: Tis better to collect up front then from the back end. Take down the persons name and where they would like the flowers to be delivered. Keep this list handy so you know where to take the flowers after you pick them up. If someone would like a receipt and you do not have the packet take down their name and address and let Dean know and we will make sure we get them one.
Third - Flower Pick-up: Claproods will be furnishing the flowers again this year. Their address is 910 Industry Avenue, just off of Kibby Street. The building look like a ware house not a flower shop so you may drive by it the first time scratching your head like I did. The pick-up dates are October 29,30 and 31. If you sell so many you need help with distribution just let us know and we can help.
If you have further questions let Todd or I know, and have a roaring good day.
