SANFORD LIONS CLUB

The Sanford Lions Club celebrated the Christmas season with its annual Christmas Ladies Night Thursday, Dec. 12, with dinner and entertainment at the Lions Fairgrounds. President Richard Holshouser presided while Lion Mike Womble was program chairman.

More than 80 attended the event including club members, spouses and guests. A Christmas tree and festive table decorations including colorful poinsettias and Christmas cactuses brightened the commercial exhibit hall which serves as the Lions’ Den. The food committee prepared a table full of hors d’oeuvres enjoyed during a social period prior to the dinner and program. Tail Twister Bonita Cox set the spirit of the evening with some thoughtful observations on life and the season.

President Holshouser praised the work of Lions Bucky Phillips and Lindsay Jones for organizing the annual Christmas Cheer program for some 30 blind and visually impaired citizens of Lee County. Each recipient gets $100 in gift cards for food and gifts. Club members distribute the cards and are rewarded by the warm spirit of the season during their visits with the blind and visually impaired. Lions who are ill and some who are homebound were remembered with the club being asked to keep them in their prayers. Womble
