Believe
it or not!
One
day when I was walking on Whiffin Spit this gorgeous creature
leapt out of the water with "a tale to tell".
Her Momma was a"wild " Sooke girl and her Daddy
was a "farmed boy". No one wanted this poor lost
soul!
So, I told the other Lioness, we quickly adopted her and
she lives on happily in the hearts of the Sooke District
Lioness!!
Is there more to this 'tale' ?
Stay
tuned - one never knows!!

Lioness
President Anne S presenting Sooke Lion Mike an appreciation
gift for all the help we received from the Lions - they
assist us by transporting much of the merchandise to the
hall, helping us set up the tables, etc. and most importantly,
helping us tear down and remove any unsold items. Thankyou
so much, Lions!

Lioness
Liaison Lion Dave N guarding the door until 9 a.m. - keeping
the "early birds out" while we prepared for our
big sale in a new location - the diningroom at the Sooke
Community Hall (no rain and wind to worry about like last
year !) All of our profits will be used to help send a child
with disabilities to Easter Seal Camp Shawnigan this summer.
|
Lots
of organizing to do in a the hour before the sale starts
- books and videos and tapes to organize, merchandise to
display, and of course, "Is that coffee ready yet!"

|

9
a.m. - doors opened and the crowds descended!
|

We
could not have asked for better attendance at our annual
sale !

Zone
chairman Lion Mari Hall (holding the beach ball) and Esquimalt

the beach ball will be used at the upcoming District 19-I
Convention in Comox this April, but she won't tell us why....
