An in depth discussion was held concerning the Lions Day on Dec 10 for the Salvation Army.  There have been many local problems with the current local officers.  A motion to participate in the project was voted down.  A strong letter is to be drafted and sent to SA international, Regional and local staff, with our grievances to be stated.  It is felt by the membership that the two local officers are lacking in many respects in the community.  It is hoped that the letter will elicit some communications and explanations about their negative activities.
