In other words, to become a Change Leader
Last Week - Mayor Hancock
Thank you so much Mayor Michael B. Hancock, for sharing your vision for a world class City and County of Denver with us at lunch today. Lions Clubs International are so proud of being a place where these conversations take place.
Denver Lions Orientation
While the event title is Denver Lions Orientation is not only for new members but also anyone who want to learn more about Lions Club. 
 
Pizza and beverages while hearing all about the Lions Club of Denver. We will start eating and socializing at 5:30 pm and then the presentation at 6 pm.  It is OK to eat and drink while we talk.  This is a great way to better understand how the Lions club operates and all the service programs we support.

Recycle for Sight
As the coordinator for the Denver Den’s Glasses for the masses I would like to take this opportunity to say  I am so appreciative  of your confidence in me to be so  …. and to tell all of you how gratetful  I am to the volunteers in Glasses for the Masses for their steady hand at the helm to ensure a continued flow of used glasses for this important aspect of the Denver Den Lions of Denver -  and especially my appreciation to Jim Hannifin and Steve Kinsky and Dwight Steen for keeping me posted with all the goings on while I have been “out of the loop” since early January. 
 
I also want to thank most particularly LION BOB FRYE - after years of volunteering, he is retiring from the ranks of GFM.  He will be sorely missed....
 
And Yeppers - you know what is coming next!  How about one [or more!] of you Lions standing in the wings stepping up?  This is not one of those "every day and twice on Sunday" dealies - it's as easy as puddin' pie! Don't be shy now!  Just give  me a call and I shall fill you in the way we go about it.
 
I am hoping to finally get off this tether I have been on and make it to at least a couple of meetings in May.  I actually miss some of Maggiano’s  cookin’, definitely their salads, and specially those crunchy rolls w/gobs of butter on them! 
 
Looking forward to seeing you all in late May.
