Members of our club and our Cameron University friends gathered on the Cameron campus grounds on Monday, 22 April to celebrate our Earth Day donation of two Eastern Redbud Trees. Pictured above are (left to right) John Young; Cameron University Director of Facilities, Lions Doug Rice, KW Hillis, Al Granger, Elaine Keir, Vivian Silverstrim, and Albert Johnson, Jr., Vice President for University Advancement. Lion Joe Wotring selected, purchased, and delivered the two Eastern Redbuds that are now planted around Aggie Gym. We've done this for 15 years in a row and Lion Joe Wotring has made it happen for almost every one of those Earth Days. Lion Joe couldn't make it this year due to work obligations at Ft. Sill. Thanks for the many years of making Earth Day a great day, Lion Joe!

Members of our club hosted a White Cane fundraiser at Sutherland's on Saturday, 6 April. Lions Vivian Silverstrim, Elaine Keir, Doug Rice, Paul McCarthy, and Trevor Wonderling took part. They did a wonderful job and raised almost $500! Sutherland's was also a very gracious host; providing tables, chairs, a monetary donation, and cooking up hotdogs! The General Manager of Sutherland's, John Williams, is a past member of our parent club and is currently a member of the Patriots Lions. Thanks for your help, Lion John!

A great quote from Helen Keller, who played an important part in the history of Lions International:

"Happiness cannot come from without. It must come from within. It is not what we see and touch or that which others do for us which makes us happy; it is that which we think and feel and do, first for the other fellow and then for ourselves." - Helen Keller

Lions Clubs International is the world's largest service club organization with more than 1.4 million members in approximately 46,000 clubs in more than 200 countries and geographical areas around the world.
