Lions Camp needs a new Trustee
Trustee needed for Lions Camp Board of Trustees
 
In June Lions Camp Board President, Barb Guest is be leaving the Lions Camp Board after 6 years.  We have a brand new Executive Director, Jodi Franke, who is taking the bull by the horns.  There has been a massive clean out at the camp and Jodi has so many great new ideas for the campers and the off season rentals.
 
With Barb’s upcoming departure, we need someone from the 6C to volunteer for a three year term on the Board as a Trustee.  This will give a chance to understand the workings of the camp and be an integral part of keeping our camp in good working order.  If you wish to put your name on the ballot know that you will have four meetings per year (three of which are at the camp on a Saturday and the last is at the state convention).  Your letter requesting to have your name put on the district ballot and a letter from your club stating they support you needs to be sent to Barb at 6611 West 5th Place, Lakewood, CO  80226
 
If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to send Barb an email at barbkat_nj@yahoo.com or call her at 303-249-1795
