Your weekly dose of Roars, Recaps & Reminders!
Hi Lions,
Lions, did you know penguins propose to their mates with pebbles?  “Which is still less awkward than some of our proposals to chair a committee…you know who you are.”
 
ROAR STOPPER ALERT!  A huge THANKS to everyone who worked on the CNLC Committee Trade Show! If you missed it, imagine the State Fair but with fewer fried Oreos and more Lions shoving sign-up sheets at you. Sign Up are always open, because our committees are generous like that!
 
HOMETOWN MILITARY HERO: Final Call
We’re still searching for a locally active-duty hero to honor this Lions year. Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, Coast Guard…if they’re serving, they qualify. Let’s find someone who deserves a big Lion-sized THANK YOU.
Deadline: Tuesday, September 30 (but we'll accept through Friday)

PRE-SCHOOL VISION SCREENINGS: Tiny Humans, Big Energy
Kicks off THIS WEEK and runs all through October…basically every Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. Show up at 9:00 AM, and you’re usually out in an hour (unless a kid mistakes you for a jungle gym). NO experience needed, just a smile and maybe a little patience. 
Dates: Sept. 30 – Nov. 4
Time: 9:00 AM (done within an hour or two)
Location: 16 preschools around town

Location: Sam Houston Elementary

THIS WEEK’S PROGRAM: Moo-ving Right Along
This week, Jesse Carver brings us the Livestock Market Update. Expect facts, figures, and maybe a cow pun or two. If nothing else, you’ll leave knowing more about beef than you ever thought possible.
 
The Hannahgram: Chaos Coordinator in Chief 
This week’s adventure? My car tried to audition for a demolition derby. Yep… another accident. At this point, I’m convinced it’s cursed. (If you see me show up riding a bike, a horse, or a Roomba… just roll with it.) Between that, vision screenings, and Clay Shoot sign-ups, I’ve accepted that “calm and organized” is not in my job description. But hey, chaos keeps us interesting.
 
With Lion Love (and a rental car that hopefully has better karma),
