Authored by the Greenville Lionesses care of Bonnie Peters.
The Lioness of Greenville are in the process of change! The
Lions organization has evolved in a way that our Lioness Club must choose to be
an actual Lions Club or to evolve into a club totally outside of Lions. There
is many pros and cons involved in our decision and we are working through that.
More to come.
We do not hibernate in Winter! Lioness also assisted in Lion
Donor Eye tissue transport. Lions and Lioness across the state of Wisconsin
participate in transporting donor tissue to those in need. We also volunteer
through Pillars Warming Shelter, throughout the year by donating, preparing,
and serving a meal, as we did on February 10th (see picture).
On February 4th, our club met at St Mary’s
Catholic Church to make tie fleece blankets. This is a great social event while
putting our hands to work creating needed blankets for cancer patients. Lioness
along with an Action Team grant from Thrivent Financial action team grant were
able to make many blankets to donate to cancer centers (see picture)
On February 14th, at Lambeau Field Atrium, Old
Glory Honor Flight hosted an event that the Lioness supported with providing
raffle items. We hope the people attending this event enjoyed this event. Old
Glory Honor Flight provides flights to Washington DC for area veterans. Thank
you to all our veterans for your service!
