Fellow 
Lions:
This letter 
is to inform all the Lions Clubs in C-2, C-6 and North Mason Lions Club (C-4) 
that the judging for the 2012-2013 Lions South Sound Essay Contest will take 
place on Saturday, January 5, 2013 at the Olympics West Retirement 
Apartments in Tumwater.  A continental breakfast will be available at 8:30 
A.M. Judging will commence around 9:00 A.M and conclude around 1:00 P.M.  
Even though 
the school you sponsored this year did not participate, you are requested to 
encourage your members to take part of the judging process.  This will be the 
24TH   year of this successful program.
Twenty Youth 
Exchange applications were received for the Essay contest and 
sixteen essay’s were received for judging.
The following 
schools were represented with essay candidates:
Olympia H. S. 
(3)
Shelton H. S. 
(2)
Tenino H. S. 
(2)
North 
Thurston H. S. (1)
North Mason 
H. S. (1)
Timberline H. 
S. (6)
Rainier H. S. 
(1)
It is 
difficult to understand why some schools were not represented.  The only 
scenario I can rationalize is that the program was not promoted adequately 
within the other schools.
The first 
place winner will receive an expense paid trip to the country of their choice, 
during the summer and stay with at least two host families for four to six 
weeks.
The second 
place winner will receive a $150 GIFT CARD and the third place winner will 
receive a $100 GIFT CARD.
If you have 
any questions, please call me at (360) 427-1964 or our Co-chairperson, Bob 
Kelley, (360) 491-3773.
