How can you catch your limit?

     This is an easy one and we all know the answer, Have Fun & Good Bait. Find and provide quality service to your community and just ask people to help. Ask your neighbor, your friends, people who are busy, people with lots of time, the clerk at the store. Show them your enthusiasm, tell them your story, listen to theirs. If you use the right bait you can’t seem to keep ‘m off the hook. People will be asking you what the Lions are up to.  Again, if we “Each one Reach one” we can catch our limit.

     Summer is waning and we are getting ready for Fall so now is the time for even more service to begin. We’ve just gotten the reports from our area GAT team and the news is great for growth. As I’ve been saying and will keep on saying, there’s never been a better time than now to be a Lion! The need is huge and so are our hearts for service, here and around the world. People are looking for purpose in their lives.

     Hope and I have had a very busy summer of club visits, service projects, fundraisers, BBQ’s, and family gatherings. This year has started out great and we have started gaining momentum in our district so let’s keep it up. Together we can serve and have fun doing it.

Use the right Bait and have Fun you can “Catch your Limit”

Yours in service DG SuperDoug

“Will you not help me hasten the day when there shall be no preventable blindness; no little deaf, blind child untaught; no blind man or woman unaided? I appeal to you Lions, you who have your sight, your hearing, you who are strong and brave and kind. Will you not constitute yourselves Knights of the Blind in this crusade against darkness?”
— Helen Keller's Speech at 1925 International Convention Cedar Point, Ohio, USA June 30, 1925
