Lions Golf Outing and Dinner June 4
Lions,  the weather is turning nice - finally - and the grass is green and it's time once again to sign up for our last social event of the year.
 
This is NOT just a golf event for a bunch of duffers.
 
This is NOT limited to just the older members
 
And this is NOT during the week interrupting your work schedule
 
This is, pure and simple, a fun event for you and your friends.
 
Anyone can play scramble golf, especially the way we do it!
 
Anyone can eat a great meal with friends.
 
NEW MEMBERS:  You are heartily encouraged to come to either the golf and dinner or just the dinner.  No better way to meet your fellow Lions.  Yes, you don't have to play golf to come to dinner.
 
We've already got many of the usual suspects that have signed up.  There is a limit and we will have to cut off the amount of golfers when we reach the max.  So sign up early to assure your spot in this world class event.
 
June 4th is the date.  Saturday, with tee times starting at 1pm.  Bar opens at 6. Dinner at 7.
 
Golf and dinner is $101/pp.  Dinner only is $32/pp.
 
Sign up today:   Call Steve at 303.748.1886  or email  coloardokrebs@gmail.com or on the web at   http://denverlions.org/event/annual-golf-outing/
 
See you there!

Savio Celebration
Thank You from Savio
Fellow Lions:
 
A special thank you to the Lions Club for your purchase of 126 Amp The Cause raffle tickets.  Your actions are both kind and generous.  As  I have noted before, the message of support in giving is just as important as the gift.  Everyone at Savio appreciates all that the Club does for us.
 
The next step is for one of us to win that car!  Best wishes to each of you in the drawing.
 
Lion Bill
Lions Club Factoid
Melvin Jones founded Lions Clubs because he rightly believed that like-minded citizens could do more for their communities as a group than they could do as individuals working alone. 
Last Week Speaker Mark Scheffel
Senator Mark Scheffel was last weeks speaker.  Now that the Colorado Legislator has ended there session he gave us insight to how the system and what was done in this session.   It is good to see how the issues in Washington are not as great in our state.  Our Colorado legislature has accomplished a lot. And there is still work to do.
