Lions Club takes on
big project
The Londesboro Lions Club has
undertaken a major fund-raising
project for this fall. At the meeting
on October 2 a motion was passed
to purchase a fully equipped new
van for Lion Ron Nesbitt.
Lion Ron, as all are quite aware,
was seriously injured in a swimm
ing accident this summer. He is
soon to be discharged from
hospital and as such will require a
mode of transportation.
Lion President Howard Cart
wright advises that the club is
looking at an overall expenditure of
more than $25,000 but adds there is
no doubt that the community will
support this endeavor.
To kick off the fund-raising
campaign, a special day called
“Back the Biter Day’’ is being
planned for November 29. Lion
