The Zanesville Lions garage sale was a success but we really have lots of stuff left for another one. We collected over $500 in donations for the items that customers picked out. We could not have pulled this off without the help of these guys and gals: Friends Steve Kumfer and Ronald McDonald, Lions members Larry Herron, Tom Tracy, Robin Phillips, Cheryl Tracy, Melanie Martin and myself, and all of you who came to shop or donated items. Lion member Robin Phillips is still selling some items on the internet for us.
