President’s Message July 2011

PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE             Ted Blevins

Like I was saying……New members, one by one. How do we Lions make a difference? One by One.

Ask the recipient of a corneal transplant who can now see again.

Ask the child who sees leaves on trees for the first time with his glasses because of a referral from the Kidsight committee’s efforts.

Ask the mother out of work for 6 months, who could not afford glasses, who successfully went thru the sight program screening…

Ask the man who discovered he had prostate cancer as a result of his blood work at the 2011 Health Fair. One by one.

Ask the person with macular degeneration who just discovered what the Ensight Skills Center could do for her…

Ask the cancer survivor, who just finished walking all night in the Relay for Life, where his breakfast pancakes came from… One by one. Lions do this – one by one.

Ask the newly disabled senior citizen who built the ramp up his stairs for him……One by one.

That’s also how we build our membership. One by one. When was the last time YOU brought a guest to Lions?

I’ll be listening!             Lion Ted
