6/11/14 - Work is underway to rebuild tradition and renew a community service club in the Howell area. Volunteers will be out canvassing the community this week to help spur interest in reforming the Howell Lions Club and encourage attendance at the first organizational meeting planned next Wednesday. District Governor David Boes represents an area that covers the six counties around Lansing. The Howell area had a long history of having a Lions Club International, which are volunteer organizations. While a principal focus is providing assistance with vision care, Boes tells WHMI they try to help out wherever thereâs a need. He says theyâve been planning and working to form a club in Howell for two years now and are back at it again. There are already Lions Clubs in Brighton, Hartland, and Pinckney but Boes feels one would be beneficial to serve the needs of the Howell community. Next Wednesdayâs organizational meeting starts at 6:30pm at the Howell Carnegie District Library. Boes says anyone interested in finding out more about the Lions Club or those who may be interested in joining if a Howell club is formed should attend. Details can be found in the attached press release. (JM)
