The Easter Egg Hunt for the visually impaired is scheduled for April 7th, 2013. The event will be at the Gillet School just West of Prospect High. This is what is meant by “We Serve”.
May 3rd and 4th are Tootsie Pop Days. Since we are currently soliciting funds for the July Festival and Raffle, the Board of Directors has decided to suspend public solicitation. At the two meetings May 9th and 23rd we will be soliciting donations from the members for this worthy cause. The money that is collected will go to the Lions of Illinois Foundation to help defray expenses for quality programs and services to the people of Illinois for the detection, treatment, and rehabilitation of visual and hearing impairments.
