Next Vision Campaign to Mexico - October 25 to November 3

Vision Mission to Mexico

Susy and Steve Kinsky are planning a Vision Mission to Cuernavaca, Mexico, from October 26 to November 3. We will conduct vision screenings, eye exams, and glasses fittings.

We will use the glasses we collected. This is very rewarding, as you witness people, young and old, being able to see again. We can also participate in the Dia de Los Muertos celebration and go sightseeing.

We are partnering with Sister Cities for this event.

If you have never been on a Vision Mission, this is one to go on.

Interested, contact Lion Steve Kinsky 303.263.3901 stevekinsky@icloud.com

A lot of good information on what other clubs are doing. Also a lot of good reports from various committees.

Amendment to Club constitution

Please read through the attached document. It is a proposal to amend the Denier Lions Club's Constitution to include Associate Members. It includes the added language, the membership types defined by LCIF, and our Constitution for review.

We have two members of another Lions Club who would like to join as Associate Members of our club so they can attend our luncheon, service projects, and other events.

By adding the Associate Member level to the Denver Lions Club, we would be able to welcome members of other clubs who see value in being associated with the Denver Lions Club. These members would pay quarterly dues of $90 and have lunches included. We do not have any funds due to LCIF for Associate Members, which is why the quarterly dues are set at $90. The amount was agreed upon by the Denver Lions Club Board of Directors.

The Denver Lions Club Board of Directors has reviewed the attached and has voted to approve the Amendment to our Constitution to include the Associate Member category.

Members of the Denver Lions Club have two weeks to submit any feedback in support or against this measure. If no negative feedback is received, the Amendment will be made.

Please submit all feedback to DLC President Dan Kiel at DanJKiel@gmail.com so we have a written record.

Thank you
