Dear Lions, 
 
 ❤🚗 A huge THANK YOU to everyone who made this year’s Lucky Derby such a success! From our organizers to participants and donors, your contributions help keep our service projects moving forward. You’ve truly made a difference, and we appreciate each of you.
 
👉🎁Christmas Baskets – We Need YOU!
We are really short on volunteers to deliver Christmas boxes this year, and we can’t stress enough how important it is for members to step up & sign up. Delivering a box is quick and meaningful, with NO waiting in line. Boxes will be pre-assigned, and your pickup will be smooth and hassle-free. If you haven’t participated in this service project I can assure you it’s one you don’t want to miss!
     *Boxing Day: Helpers needed to pack the boxes on Tuesday, Dec. 17th, at 10:00 AM at the club office. Many hands make light work!
      *Delivery: After our Christmas Social on Wednesday, Dec. 18th, we’ll begin distributing the boxes. Sign up to deliver, and you’ll get priority with pre-assigned boxes, making pickup easier than ever. Please sign up—your help matters! 
(SIGN UP NOW)

Our Quote of the Week was provided by our very own Vicki Musgrove. This is one of her favorite Christmas quotes!
“I never thought it was such a bad little tree. It’s not bad at all, really. Maybe it just needs a little love.” – Linus (Charlie Brown Christmas)
 
Lions l, this simple reminder from Linus mirrors the heart of our Lions’ service. Whether delivering Christmas baskets or bringing joy to children, sometimes all it takes is a little love and care to make a BIG difference. Let’s continue to spread kindness this holiday season!
 
Yours in service,
Andrew Perry
Club Secretary
