MAY 2:  Thank you Lions Art Runyan, Linda Lazelle, George & Linda Johnson and Rod Mitchell for handing out white canes to customers at Jim Bob's Chuck Wagon in McKenna on Thursday, May 2nd from 10 AM to 7 PM.

We all agree -- Jim Bob's staff give great service and the food is tasty. They made us feel very welcome being there. It was enjoyable promoting Rainier Lions to the friendly customers. If you haven't eaten there -- we can highly recommend giving it a try.

We will be receiving our donation from the Restaurant within a few days.



THANK YOU RAINIER TEXACO:

MAY 4:  Thank you to the new Lions Bud & Julia Green and Terri & Bill Rendahl, President George Johnson and Rainier High School student Tori Skinner for handing out white canes to customers at the Rainier Texaco on Saturday, May 4th from 10 AM to 3:45 PM. Rich & Kelly Hill and family stopped by also. The weather was the best to be working outdoors! The Lions were excited to tell customers their white cane donations support projects to restore sight and hearing. Bud Green enthusiastically gave white canes to customers at the gas pumps who didn't need to go into the store -- this definitely helped donations for the day.

We will give all of our members a financial update when Jim Bob's gives their donation.  George set up for white canes both mornings. 

With everyone having projects of your own, work, family, etc., it is so much appreciated that you have taken time once again to make sure the Rainier Lions fundraiser was adequately staffed and successful. It is wonderful working with all of you. Thank You!

Please let me know if you have any questions or comments.

White Cane Days May 2nd at Jim Bob's Chuck Wagon & May 4th At Rainier Texaco



Hello Rainier Lions,
Please see the White Cane Days Schedule for Thursday, May 2nd at Jim Bob's Chuck Wagon, 35119 State Rt. 507, McKenna, WA, 10 AM to 7 PM.  We still need 2 volunteers for the 1 to 4 PM shift.  Also, if you can fill in should someone not be able to make it, please let me know.

We will be inside the restaurant and a portion of Jim Bob's proceeds for this day will be donated to the Rainier Lions Club for White Canes!  Thanks to President George for making this happen.  

  
Cheryl Porter is the contact person at Jim Bob's.


  A special thank you to Jim Bob's Chuck Wagon for their community service support!



On Saturday, May 4th, 10 AM to 4 PM, Rainier Lions will be set up at the Rainier Texaco.  We will be outside and the weather is usually raining, windy and cold -- but that could change!  To the volunteers who signed up for Saturday, please keep this in mind and wear warm clothing.  If we have volunteers to work past 4 PM and people are contributing, we can be at the Texaco until 5 or 6 PM.  Shanna Harritt is the contact person at Rainier Texaco.

I have included White Cane Days information for the new members -- and a refresher for all of us -- also Multiple District 19's overview of 2012. 
Rainier Lions White Cane Days donations in 2012 was over $200.00.
Any questions, please let President George or me know. 
THANK YOU FOR GENEROUSLY VOLUNTEERING YOUR TIME!
