June 2, 2023 Greetings Lions This was a busy month. On May 6 the district had their Kentucky Derby Party, everyone had a great time. Thank you to the committee for their hard work. On May 7 I attended the Thornton’s and Stickney-Forest View Pancake Breakfast, as usual they were both delicious. On May 10 Lion Bonnie and I attended Glenwood’s Anniversary Party. We enjoyed ourselves and the venue was great. The next evening we attended Oak Lawn’s Law and Order Night. This is always a great evening where they honor one Police Officer and one Firefighter. Their families and their work families also attend. It is a very special night for them. On May 12 we attended my clubs Officer Installation Dinner. That is always fun to see their families and spend
time with the Worth Lions. The next day I had my final Cabinet Meeting, it was well attended. On May 17, I installed members of a new Leo Club at Chicago Christian High School sponsored by Palos Lions. From May 18 – 21 we attended the State Convention in Springfield. We had a fantastic time with the other lions from across the State. Thank you to Ben and Yoly Zoleta for working so hard on the hospitality room. District 1A had a great showing. I would like to congratulate the Convention Committee on great job on the Convention. The State elected PDG Austin D’Souza as a candidate for International Director. Congratulations PDG Austin.
