Lion Prez , Carrie, opened the meeting and we sang "My Country Tis of Thee", followed by a pray by Lion Wagner.

Lion Secretary Heiden read two thank you letters from  Vision Outreach International and Lory's Place for our generous support of their programs.

Lion Dan lead a very interesting life. We found out that his favorite TV show was the "Three Stooges".

Most of us didn't lnow that Lion Larry was such an athlete. He was an All American at Vanderbilt(no. 76 above) and even signed with the N.Y. Jets.  He said there is a plaque outside the Vanderbilt Libray that states that Lion Larry never steped foot in the lirary during his 4 years there.

Membership chair, Lion Dan, conducted the  virtual induction ceremony for our newest member.

Welcome new Lion, Rhonda Wilson-Strasser.

Lion Dan presents Lion Rhonda with her Lion pin.

Lion Rhonda, wear this pin proudly and remember - WE SERVE. Congratulations and welcome aboard.

Lion Carrie introduced our guest speaker for the day.

Our guest was St. Joseph Director of Public Safety,   Steve Neubecker. He  said that there have been many improvementsmade in both the police and fire departments. They are presently reviewing their policies & procedures. In addition, they are constantly looking for ways to connect with the community and welcome the input from community members. Thanks for the information and your service.

 As you can can see that Lion Ron is happy to substitute as Tail Twister today.

Lion Gazella appealed his fine for not being recognized as a Lion when he received an award or his service to Buchanan Community Schools. Congratulations, Lion Tom, but you appeal was denied.

Once again Lion Hanley was camera shy, but filled in for vacationing Lion Tamer Allen Edlefson. He challenged us with some pretty tough trivia questions.

We also celebrated Lion Larry Wagner's birthday today. He got lots of attention  today.

Lion Ron wanted to know how much was in the Pot 'o Silver?

Lion Vern had Lion Bembenek virtually draw for today's potential winner.

Nope - Once again, no winner. Sorry Lion Mandarino.
