Lion Mike, Lions All, We Serve
The Monday before Thanksgiving our local Lions club delivered holiday dinner, plus extra food staples, for 170 plus families in need in our community.

Feed the People
It's a practice born of our very species. Help each other. We would not survived as long on this planet without helping one another; considering the collective's well-being; lending a hand to those in need.
