Wow, where has the time gone? We are now into August and it seems like the summer is speeding by. I thought I would fill you in on what I have been doing lately. I have spent much time getting our new District Cabinet in place and arranging my visitation schedule. IPDG Marvin Hankinson has spent much time helping to get our next Directory together with all the updates needed so we can have them printed and ready for you at our 1st Cabinet meeting Aug. 29th in Attica. 1st VDG Keith Countermine (Attica Lions) and 2nd VDG Forest Shaner (Bolivar Lions) are helping to get our team in place as we have 6 new Zone Chairman this year. I will give you the Zone Chairs now- Z1 Dawn Countermine (Attica), Z2, Randy Unterborn (Kendall), Z3 Tim Crawford (Hamlin), Z4 Jim Keenan(Chili), Z5 Judy MacKnight (Gates), Z6 Dave Farwell Fairport), Z7 Steve Brandt (Avon), Z8 Bob Infantino (Dansville), Z9 Dan Fleming (Scio), Z10 Virgil Garner (Andover).
In addition to the Lions work we have had a health issue to deal with as Darlene, my wife of 40 years as of June 27th, has been going through Chemo treatments for Breast Cancer. As a result of this situation we were not able to attend the International Convention in Sydney and will have about two more months of treatments. Darlene has not felt good enough to attend events so for the next few months I will likely attend your club doings without Darlene. We had our 40th Anniversary and here is a picture of the handsome couple.
I will add my visitation schedule to this issue as some of the dates still need to be confirmed. If you see any conflicts or errors please contact me. I look forward to serving you in this Lions year and look for your support.
