Please join me on June 1, 2013 for our last cabinet meeting and Spring Party.  Our guest speaker will be Jim Day, MD14 Council Chair.  The Spring Party will be our time to celebrate our district’s achievements as a “Winning Team”.

As your District Governor, I have one final request of you.  I am asking that you attend our last cabinet meeting on June 1, 2013.  Boarding for everyone starts at 11:00am. The meeting will start promptly at 11:15 am and conclude at Noon.  It will be aboard theGateway Clipper Princess Liner docked at Station Square in     Pittsburgh.  The address is: 350 W Station Square Dr, Pittsburgh, PA 15219.  Phone: (412) 355-7980.

Please submit your report, to our district secretary, Lion Maryann Dayton, a week prior to the event, by May 25, 2013.  We will send out the reports to all cabinet members and will only be voting, at the meeting, on those reports that need cabinet approval.  All other reports will be marked in our minutes, as submitted, distributed and filed.

Please plan on attending the cabinet meeting and spring party as a tribute to your year of service and the wonderful work being accomplished by our individual clubs and Lions collectively.  If you wish to attend the cabinet meeting and not participate in the Spring Party, please let me know as soon as possible.  Cabinet members not attending the Spring Party must disembark by 12:15 pm. THERE WILL BE NO CHARGE FOR CABINET MEMBERS THAT DECIDE TO ONLY ATTEND THE CABINET MEETING AND NOT THE SPRING PARTY.

I would like to take this opportunity to again thank each and every one of you for your service to the District and your support during my year as District Governor.  What a wonderful Team we have and what a great year it has been.

We were awarded the Gold Certificate from our International President Wayne Madden for membership growth.

We placed first in the MD14 membership challenge as the Lions District with the highest net gain with 32 new members.

We recruited 114 New Members during the 2012-2013 Lion year.  I think that is Awesome.

Most importantly we are moving forward with reaching our goal of 1250+ members in our District 14B.

None of this could have happened without you! THANK YOU for your service!

Together in Service

Alice Jones

LIONS KENNYWOOD FUN DAY

This book is designed for cooks who have neither the time nor the interest in creating an elaborately detailed recipe that requires either an eagle eye or a steady hand to make yummy dishes. This cookbook is the “No Measure Zone.”

Every recipe uses the quantities you’re most familiar with: a bag of this, a half a can of that, a box of those, two eggs, and a handful of them. Once you have this book, the only thing you’ll be measuring is the amount of time and frustration you’ve saved by not measuring. So, if you can find them, throw out your measuring cups and spoons and order this book.

This unique idea is the brainchild of Morgan Park, a mom, student, worker, and person with a disability. Her vision is an easy to read and simple to follow collection of recipes that take the challenge out of preparing tasty dishes. Among the people Morgan believes this cookbook will help are: busy moms, college students, kitchen phobes, bachelors, seniors, newly weds, and people with disabilities such as vision impairment, manual dexterity deficits, and palsy. The proceeds from this project will benefit the Pennsylvania Council of the Blind, a statewide advocacy organization of consumers who are blind or vision impaired.

This book is available in 16-point large type, Braille, DAISY file, and MS Word CD. The Braille is one large volume available for $25. All other formats are $12.50. To order your copy of the “True No Measure Cookbook,” send check or money order to: PA Council of the Blind, 931 N. Front Street, Harrisburg, PA 17102. Credit card orders can be made by calling (717) 920-9999 or by clicking on the PayPal button online at http://PCB1.org/cookbook. Be sure to indicate your preferred format and shipping address. The entire index of 223 recipes is also online at http://PCB1.org/cookbook.
