District 11-B2 is doing a donation drive to benefit local Bronson Children’s Hospital! 

We are looking for donations of new items or financial donations. Please ask your towns for donations of crayons, coloring books, glue sticks, etc. We will put little packages together to pass out to the children at the hospital. 

Please have all donations compiled and given to your zone chair by Sept. 28. 

If you have any questions, please contact: 
Pediatric Cancer Chair Karol Chopp @ karolchopp@yahoo.com 

*Wear a yellow ribbon on Sept. 13 in support as this is the official day of Pediatric Cancer Awareness!

Mark your calendar for a very special program night on Wednesday September 26th at 6:30 at the Antewerp Township Activity Center.
 
We have a special guest speaker, Kristy Woodwyk, from the Bronson Children's Hospital. Kristy is a Child Life Specialist for the Hemotology and Oncology department at Bronson. She helps children who are staying in the hospital find activities to keep their mind busy and to help brighten their day a little while they are there. 
September is Childhood Cancer Awareness month and we as Lions have taken up a collection of craft items to donate to the hospital. If you have any craft items, please bring them that night as we are giving them to Kristy to take back with her to the hospital. 

Some of the craft items that Kristy needs the most are:

Glue sticks
Coloring books and crayons
Small canvases
Play dough
Foam stickers
Small bottles of Acrylic paint
Small wooden or Paper Mache trinket boxes to paint
Complete craft kits are good too

We would like to have a nice potluck for Kristy that night. Please respond to this email if you can bring a dish to share. I will supply plates, silverware, napkins, and beverages. I will also bring a crock pot with bbq meatballs.

Thank you, and we will see you on the 26th!
