Lions Assist at Truckee Air Show
Club President Lou LaManna hears all about planes from Cato, one of the many fans of the Truckee Tahoe Air Show & Family Festival. Truckee Lions volunteer to pick up trash at the event.

Cook Trailer
Lion Don Purdy built our cook trailer in his driveway. We use it for a variety of events, but it also is built for community use and is ready in the event of an emergency. “We serve whatever the need.”
