Another fund raising event is right around the corner for the Port O’Connor Lions Club! With the great success of their Ice Cream Social and Bingo, the Club is encouraged to offer for your enjoyment, a Spaghetti Supper and Bingo on March 5th at 6:00 p.m. at the Port O’Connor School Cafeteria.

Lions Clubs are all about service to others. Worldwide, Lions are recognized for their service to the blind and visually impaired. This service began when Helen Keller challenged Lions to become “knights of the blind in the crusade against darkness” during the 1925 Lions Club International Convention.

Today Lions extend their commitment to sight conservation through countless local efforts, as well as their International SightFirst Program and Lions World Sight Day. Lions also collect and recycle eyeglasses for distribution in developing countries year-round.

In addition, Lions make a strong commitment to young people through youth outreach programs. The Port O’Connor Lions Club is working on sponsoring free eye testing for every student in the Port O’Connor Elementary School this year.

So, mark your calendars: Saturday, March 5, 6:00 p.m.: Good food, bingo with prizes and family fun!
