We started off the month with our last raffle sale at the Holiday Fair. It was a bit cold to be selling tickets outside, but the Lion was warm. At 1 pm on Saturday, December 4, we drew the winning raffle ticket. The five thousand dollar cash prize went to a woman who lives in Freedom, NH and who bought her ticket at one of our Tuesday night Bingo games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

President Mark Cotrupi deliver the four $500 checks to each of the towns that the Moultonborough Lions provide services for:\u00a0 Moultonborough, Tuftonboro, Center Harbor and Sandwich.\u00a0 The money is used to help families with gifts for children (toys and clothing), food certificates and sometimes help with fuel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We personalized 268 Christmas cards<\/strong> which were given to the nursing home residents of Golden View, Mountain View, and Forest View.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We donated $4,000 to some of the tornado victims in Kentucky.<\/strong> Specifically we wired the money to a Lions Club in the affected area. The money will stay in the community and will be used to purchase Christmas toys, gift cards for food and clothes, and shower units to name a few uses. We also sent $1,000 to the International Lions Club disaster relief fund to help additional people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the help of three Moultonborough Lions and three friends\/spouse, $500 was raised by ringing the Salvation Army – Laconia bell in December. The Club donated an addition $600 dollars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our Christmas party was held on December 20 and it was nice to be able to do it in person this year even though attendance was down at the dinner. All had a good time with a Yankee Swap and a guess-the-Christmas-carol rebus puzzle cards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
