Two Cactus Lions, District Governor Hal Griffin and His wife Lion Sandy Griffin, attended Lions Club International convention in Honolulu. Five Cactus Lions attended District Training Classes. Lion Jud Hardy volunteered 24 hours to Abilene Christian Ministries. Lion Dorothy Lowry volunteered 52 hours to Abilene Regional Medical Center. We will be the first generation of Lions in the 21st century and along with this new millennium we might want to introduce some new ways and make some adjustments.
Lets start out by supporting our new slate of officers and new president.
Membership is the lifeblood of any Lions Club and our membership in the Cactus Lions has dropped somewhat, but not as bad as some Clubs. How many younger people do you know that seem to stressed out, or working longer hours or two jobs, and the main complaint is lack of personal time. The structure that we based our social life on is changing and we are going to have to change to pass on the legacy of Lionism. The younger generation is seeking new values and we are going to have to respond in kind. After reading International President Bohar's message about quality in new members, quality in every statement made by our Club, quality in every fund-raiser, quality in all we do.
