The devastation from flooding in Eastern Kentucky was shown and a plea to all Lions to donate $25 personally to the Lions Clubs International Foundation (501c3) to help support funding all catastrophes was announced.
The best meal we ever had at a convention was served by the seating cabinet and it mirrored the food served to the flood ravaged people of Eastern KY by Lions.
The take away question was asked:
Have YOU asked anyone to join Lions this week?
More to come.
