62nd installation night dinner on Tuesday, June 24, 2008. Dave was named "Lion of the Year". This award is given by the outgoing club President. For Dave it was a surprise and an award well - deserved. He puts a lot of time and effort into the club and he is truly honored to be named Lion of the Year.If you don't know, Lions is a community based organization. Lions are well known for their dedication to ending preventable blindness. They work tirelessly in the community raising funds to be donated each year to local organizations. The Media club raised and donated over $11,000 for the year ending June 30, 2008.
If you live in Media, you have probably seen their hot dog booth at Super Sunday or their every popular crab cake booth at the Fall Food Festival. They also organize the Easter Egg hunt for area children and volunteer to staff the Bike for Sight event in early June. In September the club hosts a family picnic with pig roast, hot dogs, hamburgers and all the fixins and sides. Of course they are always collecting used eyeglasses and frames which are recycled for those in need.
