Photo of the Week: California Lions Serve Up A Feast From the Sea

Posted by on Monday, June 4, 2012 · 1 Comment  

Many of our clubs hold food-related fundraisers, including pancake breakfasts and pasta dinners. In California, Lions have found a way to incorporate a locally popular dish into the fundraising mix. We found this week’s photo at LosGatos.Patch.com. The Los Gatos Lions Club served up cioppino, a fish stew featuring crab legs, shrimp, oysters, clams and calamari, to more than 300 hungry patrons. In addition to salads, breads, antipasto, wine and the main-course stew, diners enjoyed a raffle and silent auction for art, gift baskets, jewelry, wine and other prizes. Proceeds from the ticket sales benefited a variety of charitable organizations and causes.

    Wonderful way for fundraising. We Lions are part of Lions Club International, the largest service organization in the world. We are part of the community, we are business leaders, professionals, students, homemakers – we are working to help where there is a need.
    Whether it is planning events or responding to a tragedy or urgent need, we work together to find the solution. And along the way, we find strength and support in the comradeship and friendship of the fine people we are fortunate enough to work side by side with society. Because we live and work in the communities we serve, since we are volunteers we are more effective, getting services quickly and efficiently where we are needed. Congratulations encouraging photo.
