The members of the vision screening team, led by Team Chair Jim Miller, have been very busy this year.

The chart below indicates the number of team members and hours donated at each school.

Raymond “Ray” Charles Rosnick, age 87, of Mechanicsburg, PA and a Proud Lion with 54 years of Service to the community, passed away suddenly March 11, 2019.

Ray’s service included multiple terms as Mechanicsburg Lions Club President and over 35 years as Club Secretary.  Lion Ray was the recipient of many awards including the rarely awarded Progressive Melvin Jones Fellowship and he was one of only six people in Pennsylvania to receive the John R. Crone Fellowship.  Lion Ray has also been recognized for his laudable 24 years of service as a board member of the Lions Hearing Research Foundation with 21 of those years spent serving as the board’s secretary.  Lion Ray truly exemplified the mission of Lionism which is, “Lions serve…to improve their communities, and the world.”  Our Lions Club, the community and the world are certainly better places because of Lion Ray.

The Mechanicsburg Lions Club is actively servicing the community with Vision Screening programs. The club estimates that they will scan their 1000th child in 2019.
After performing a scanning program at the Mechanicsburg School Districts “Literacy under the Lights” program, the club received some inspirational feedback from the Teacher who was in charge of the program.
The story is that one of their schools families was screened and it was recommended that their little girl see an eye doctor. The family was not sure where to go, so they contacted the school nurse. The child was then seen by a pediatrician who recommended an eye screening and helped get the family into Hershey. Hershey then referred the child to Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia and it was there that the little girl had surgery to correct her eye. The teacher said she believed there was a reattachment performed. The teacher noted it was through the initial Lions Club screening that the parents were made aware of any problems.

Members of the Mechanicsburg Lions Club participated in the JDRF “One Walk” on Sunday, November 4.  The walk started on City Island, continued on Front street and returned to the island for the finish.  Our Clubs Team, as well as a Lions District team, participated in the walk to help end Type 1 diabetes (T1D).  The event was a fun and inspirational time!

Thanks to Lion Erica Meloy for taking the lead and organizing our clubs first participation in this important event.  Club members who walked the “One Walk” were: Lions Erica Meloy, Cathy and Chris Stank, and Susan Holder.  Several club members raised money to support the event.  Those funds raised, added to the the Mechanicsburg Lions Clubs budgeted Diabetes support, equated to a donation of $600.

With Type 1 Diabetes, there are no days off and there is no cure. But there is hope!  The Mechanicsburg Lions are proud to support the cause!
