Tracine Farrow, of the Yelm
Lions Club, received a call to help a person who needed a wheelchair ramp. She called the Lacey Sunrise Lions for
assistance. Reggie Christen, 976A Tipsoo Loop, Rainier, WA. had an infection
that developed into gangrene. He was admitted into the hospital and his leg was
amputated. He was house bound without
the use of a ramp.
On July 20th,
members from the Rainier Lions, Yelm Lions, and Lacey Sunrise Lions worked together
and constructed a 16 foot ramp. The
project was completed in three hours.
