Happy Holidays from the Stickney-Forest View Lions Club
On December 7th, our Club celebrated the holidays by taking in It's a Wonderful Life: the Radio Play at The Jedlicka Performing Arts Center at Morton College. We followed that with dinner at Salerno's in Hodgkins where President Desi thanked the Club for all its hard work and PDG Jerry did a little trivia to award some prizes. Happy holidays to all from the Stickney-Forest View Lions Club.

Stickney-Forest View Lions Food Pantry
If anyone has been looking for our Stickney-Forest View Lions Club Food Pantry, it is still located at the Forest View Village Hall. It has just been moved to the north end of the second floor. We invite the community to help keep this much needed resource stocked with non-perishable food items and hygiene products. If you should notice the pantry needs restocking, please email us at sfvlions@gmail.com. Thank you again to the Village of Forest View for hosting our pantry.

At our January 6th Queen of Hearts Drawing, the winning ticket belonged to the O'Reilly Family who picked card number 9, which was revealed to be the Queen of Clubs. The O'Reilly's won $300 and the pot will roll over to next week.
