Veterans Day parade. Jack Benson is the chair. See Jack for more details. Lions will be able to participate with the Veterans. We need to get the MSU here to be in the parade. There will be a Lions float as well. Look for article in Paw Prints.
Lion John Wojahn- Do a peace poster kit. New workshop for quest on Oct. 6-7 looking for other school districts. Looking for schools to have more Leos clubs. There are awards to give Leos and we need to look in to that. Look in to a Leos club at the Job Corp.
Leos club directories and programs need to be listed in the directories.
Youth needs to be what we push; we also need to give our time as well as our money. We need to continue to grow in this area.
We need to do some state to state exchanges as well as foreign exchanges.
Need a budget for youth exchange. Need to do a video of the youth and their activities. Laura would like information on activities and photos on all exchanges. Southwest has donated 2 more round trip tickets for this year.
Good job Lion John Wojahn on getting the money for Quest. It has really been good for the teachers and students in our area.

$80 is the room fee.
Budget of the year. Preliminary discussion of raising dues- dues have not been raised in 11 years, it is too hard to continue to do what we need to on the same amount of money that we were using 11 years ago.
Please pass on this information to all your clubs and those you visit with.

Community Service Award
The Zone Chairs should be thinking about doing a Lions Community Service Award in their respective areas. Perhaps two Zones could work together, depending on geography. The Community Service Award committee developed a procedure which can be followed, and improved on, please contact Curt Kelley for a copy, which can be e-mailed. curtkelley@mindspring.com phone 208 859 3642.
