The tornado siren is tested on the first Wednesday of every month at noon.
The Lions are busy working on the schedule for our annual Lions Club Summer Festival that will be held on Saturday, July 30. If you have anything you might want to add to the day please call me at 638-4327 and I will be back with you. I will remind you that we cannot allow outside food vendors and we need to protect our local not-for-profits with their food choices. We do allow flea market, art, information, etc. vendors for a nominal price. Check the Zanesville Lions Facebook page.
Mark your calendars for Saturday, Aug. 27, when the Zanesville Community Church of God and the Zanesville Lions Club are co-hosting a community picnic. Hot dogs and hamburgers will be furnished and you will need to bring a dish. A band has been hired and the fun will begin around 5 p.m.
The Coffee Cafe is still open every weekday morning at the Zanesville Church of God. Come and get free coffee and conversation.
The Cafe may, in a few weeks, be moved to the Zanesville Lions Clubhouse. Burton Wygant wants to talk with the church group and try to combine the local “seniors” from East Union and Lafayette that have been meeting in Roanoke with their group to have a combined meeting at the Lions Club.
If you are interested in this call me and leave your name and number and I will get the information to Burton. Men and women are both welcome to attend.
Men and boys of this area are invited to the first of the local Lenten Breakfast. This one is held on Saturday, March 12, at the Zanesville United Brethren Church. The breakfast is served at 8 a.m. with the program to follow.
My short vacation in Tennessee was great but I came home to find that one of our members discovered vandalism in the pavilion at the Lions Club Park. Someone had broken in maybe Feb. 22 or 23 and threw everything all over. Then it was discovered that they came back maybe Saturday or Sunday, February 26 and 27. This time they completely demolished the vanity in the men’s restroom, did their job in the winterized toilets, spray painted a heart on the dividers and some nasty words. They also dumped boxes and just literally threw everything everywhere. This is so disturbing to our Club as they work hard to keep the park going. If you have any information or saw anything going on these days or nights let me know.
