So far the month of January has been a hodgepodge of weather. One Saturday, it reached 60 degrees and one Thursday we received about seven inches of snow.

But we started the New Year on a high note, voting in our second new member of the Lions calendar year (July 1, 2019 – June 30, 2020). Muriel Stoddard. Muriel is from Freedom and was a Lion at another club many years ago. We are so happy she decided to rejoin the Lions and do it with us. She will be helping out at Bingo and has been attending business and dinner meetings.

We are currently looking at possible new service projects, including Food packaging. And at the January Board meeting we voted to donate $1,500 to local organizations; and we have received lovely thank you notes from the four communities we serve (Moultonborough, Center Harbor, Sandwich, and Tuftonboro) for our Christmas donations which will be used as each community deems best.
