The Conroe Noon Lions Club was blessed this week with an opening prayer by Justice of the Peace and Lion Wayne Mack who pointed out how truly blessed we are to live and work in Conroe and Montgomery County at this time in history. It wouldn’t be a Lions meeting without recognizing the outstanding service to the community given by our members. Pat District Governor, Lion Paul Moore presented Past President, Lion Jason Miller, with the prestigious Melvin Jones Award for outstanding service to Lions Clubs International. Melvin Jones was the founder of Lions Clubs International which was begun on June 7, 1917, in Chicago, Illinois.
Lion Jason Miller wasn’t the only Lion winning awards this week. Our program was presented this week by Lion Bill Thompson who is the President of the Conroe Symphony Orchestra. Along with him was Gary Liebst, the Conductor of the Orchestra. Conductor Liebst explained that the Symphony Orchestra is a volunteer player, non-paid, Orchestra that was established in 1997.
