Lion’s Den Article, July, 2019

​
Eight new Lions are roaming Mayne Island.  The new members inducted at the June meeting are Jean-Daniel Cusin, Jody Waldie, Donna Dubock, Chris Redsell, Doug Hill, Brad Hanning, Jerryann Haggart and Blair Haggart.  A warm welcome was given to all the new additions at the meeting, and a big thank you to their many sponsors.  Other club news is Lion Alan Guy sharing the presidency this year with our current Lion president Allen Slade. 

The Lions were getting Mayne Islanders moving at the end of May and the first day of June at the Lions Bike Rodeo and the Lions Car Rally.  Thank you to Lion Adrian Gowing and the other Lion volunteers for getting our youngsters on bikes, and Lion Alan Guy and his crew for surprising those that think they know our island. 

Twenty-two students participated in the Lions Bike Rodeo performing at four stations on the school basketball court.  Each student received a report card for their performance.  The Lions donated two bikes that were drawn by the primary and intermediate students.  A great day for all involved! 

The participants at the second annual Lions Car Rally enjoyed the adventure and found themselves in parts of the island they had never visited.  Following clues, being observant and solving simple problems are part of this event.  Congratulations to the winner Doug Hill (a new Lion!) and his team shown in the photo below.  Close behind in second place were Kim Fairall and Lynne Perrin.  Special thanks to Lion Alan Guy and his crew of Lions Janet Guy, Mike Bullis and John Verheul. 

Lion Brian Dearden has met his weight loss challenge and all those that bet against him can stop in at Home Hardware to pay up.  Also, you can purchase a 222 ticket for the September Lions Barbecue while you are there.  

The Lions will be supporting other Island groups in July.  Some of the Lions will be manning Lions tables at the July 7th MIALS garage sale as well as cooking hotdogs and hamburgers at this event.   The Lions will also be setting up tents for the Church Fair on July 13th.
