Several local members were noted for their service to the club, many over 30 or 40 years. Mike Nocifora was recognized as a new Lion who stepped up to the plate and volunteered for several jobs and accomplished them quietly without fanfare. The governor lauded this kind of approach and urged all of us to become passionate about helping to meet our mission of aiding the blind and visually handicapped, to which we have added assistance to those with hearing problems.

Give Generously on White Cane Day
On White Cane Day, numerous storefronts will be brightened by the yellow vests and caps of local Lions Club members making their annual plea for funds. The white cane is used by blind people to find their way when walking. Club members will be at WalMart on March 3 and on Marco Island March 10, asking for your support. Globally, the organization is the largest service club serving disadvantaged people worldwide. Please be generous when you see them at the doors of local businesses.
