WAGGA WAGGA SOUTH LIONS

NEWSLETTER JUNE 15 2020

President Bob’s Report.

I congratulate members and partners that are celebrating birthdays or Club Anniversaries.

Thanks for those members who have done changes on the club information form which I sent out last

week.

Wilma Skipper has had her surgery in Sydney and is progressing well at home. John is still in respite at

the Home of Compassion and will be there until Wilma recovers.

On a sad note we have had a couple of members who have lost loved ones in the past week. Ron

Pascoe’s mother, and Lou Debono’s mother in Law. Our deepest sympathy to both families.

Gordon Aylward has resigned and he will sadly be missed by members. We thank him for his

contribution to Lions.

In a few weeks my term as your President comes to a close. I take this opportunity to thank all members

for your support and help that you have given me along the way.

One of the projects we had achieved during the year was supporting the Kooringal Public School

students with low vision. With the help of a grant from the Lions NSW-ACT Save Sight and Public

Health Foundation Amazon Alexa Speakers were obtained for the school. Prior to the closure of Lions

we had arranged to have as guest speaker Lynette Wilson Assistant Principal (Low Vision) from the

School.

As this was unable to happen due to the Covid-19. the following link has been forward to enable you to

learn more about this project. Paste this link into your browser https://youtu.be/b0YW1bjJDI4

Paddy says: "Are you on foot or in the car?"

Billy replies: "In the car." "Well that's the quickest way," says Paddy.
