Two others, from Chris Ackerman and John Robinette, thanked us for sponsoring their graduation awards. The fourth was from Wayne Nicol, principal of Beall High School, thanking us for sponsoring the two graduation awards.
Other communications included a bill for Ada Crowes glasses. The club voted to pay the total amount of $110.

The chicken barbecue for June 30th was discussed. Lion Jake has contacted Kingsford about the charcoal and will get it. Lion Bill will contact the city about the city dump truck for trash removal. Lion Cindy has made arrangements to have the rolls delivered on Friday to her house. She has also contacted student services about possibly getting student help. Lion Edge has made arrangements through Lion Joe Pace to get the 400 chickens.
Lions Bill and Sue went to the Cumberland Time concerning publicity. Debbie Hawn will handle any press releases. We should not leave anything at the Frostburg office. It is probably best to e-mail any releases to her. Bill will present more information on this in September.
Under new business, the county health department contacted Lion Jake to see if we would buy glasses for their clients. While we will help people in the Frostburg area we felt that other county clubs should buy glasses for people in their areas. Lion Bill will get a list of contacts for the various clubs to give to the health department.
Lion Bill gave each member in attendance two postcards to return by next meeting. One regarding membership, the other the auction.
As there was no further business, the meeting was adjourned
