Devonport Lions in March 2011

The Taste the Harvest results are still being compiled, but it is clear the event did not run us a loss. Everybody was acknowledged for their support. Photos of the event are posted [here].

Lions Mints for the club are now truly a Club project with more people sharing the load: Lion Ree and Jenny doing marketing,  and Lion Jenny doing banking as well, the Beatons are in charge of storage and Garry Potter doing deliveries for the next few months! Many hands make light work. Great work.

Lion George and Lion Jenny are going to the National Lions Convention in Launceston: “Have a Devil of a Time in Tassie” 59th MD201  – 15th April to 18th April 2011. Who else is going??

65 Rose day for Cystic Fibrosis soon approaching. We need volunteers to rattle tins in the mall on 27 May for CF Associations.

Lion Barry Cooper has moved to Smithton and has left our club. He was one of our most active volunteers in the club and he will be sorely missed. We wish him all the best and hope to see him whenever he can make it to Devonport!

Youth of the Year has had it's State finals in Hobart and the Latrobe candidate is going to the Nationals held April 15/16 at the MD Convention in Launceston (see above). 

Anyone interested in going to the historic reenactment of the Longford Revival Meeting on April 2? Combining the motor sport history of Longford during the 50's and 60's with the music, the fashion and the lifestyle of the era this event will also feature a Beatles tribute band. Vintage cars will be racing around the original course reenacting The Flying Mile. A bus will leave the Mersey Yaught Club at 11am at a cost of $10-$20 depending on numbers. Contact Lion Garry Potter to confirm a seat.

We will be doing the The Biggest Morning Tea again this year for the Cancer Council on Thursday 23 May. We are also planning to have a public BBQ for Australias Biggest BBQ.
