Mike Hall Elected President of Grant City Lions

New officers were elected for the Grant City Lions for the 2014-2015 year. Mike Hall was elected President, Paul and Marty Myers were Vice Presidents, Bill Calhoon was reelected as Treasurer, and Carol Hall was reelected as Secretary. They were inducted at the regular meeting Tuesday by District Governor Elect Richard Warner.

Proceeds from the recent Garage Sale in Allendale came to $1081. This includes $951 in sales and $130 in donations.

Community Action Partnership wrote a fundraising letter regarding the annual Back to School Fair, which serves over 100 children each year for Worth County. The Grant City Lions will help with the Fair this year once again and they agreed to donate $300 this year. They will also run the diabetes screening clinic that will be held there. The Bethany Lions will do the eye exam and the Tri-County Health Department will do free shots. The event is funded entirely by donations, and all money donated will stay local.

The Lions Club voted to donate $25 towards the Lions Football All-Star Game.

The Lions will sponsor a youth organization at the school starting with the next school year, which will perform community service activities.
