The Lion will give an up date on SCLCS and what happening around the state including the Lions State Office Building.<br><br> MEMBERSHIP:<br> We are having good attendance at our meeting but we need to find some new members. We lost a good member with the death of Lion Ruby Masters. The Board also voted to drop 3 members at their last meeting, so we need to try to build our numbers back up. We know you know someone you could ask to join or visit our club at the next meeting.<br><br> RENT LIONS BUILDING:<br> Put the word out that we would like to rent the building.<br><br> Candy Day Money is still coming in and it is not too late to ask your Doctor, Dentist, Business or a Friend. We received a check this week from a Doctor. We are still about a $1000.00 short on our goal so I need your help. Would you help?
