Zone Pride T-shirt Sale
Fellow F-1 Lions,
Summer of 2009 is almost here,
drawing to a close the 2008-09 Lions year.
The clubs of F-1 still have much work to do...
a rest stop, a poker run--to name just a few.
Promoting our clubs means wearing Lions' best,
but, alas, what a shame to dirty ones vest!
What else could be worn to show off our pride
and be easy to clean, with just a wash and a dry?
The Ellensburg Lions have answered this call,
with Zone Pride T-shirts sized to fit all.
The tees are navy blue and only 15 dollars,
please, if you'd like one, give E-burg Lions a holler.

Ellensburg Ed Foundation Table Sponsorship. After brief discussion, the club decided not to provide a $100 table sponsorship for the Foundations “Foundation of Fitness” fundraiser on April 24th. This decision was based on the clubs current financial situation.
International President’s Commendation Awarded. David Heath reported that our own President Sarah received the referenced award at the recent Lions conference. This is quite the honor since few received it and is one of the top four awards presented by Lions International. Obviously, well deserved. Congratulations Sarah!
