WISH LIONS TOURNEY HELPS LOCAL YOUTH


Twenty Four teams took part in the sixth annual WISH Lions Charity Golf Scramble June 28th at Fiddlestix. The group helped raise more than $13000 for an area youth Christmas Shopping Trip in December 2009. Many area businesses and citizens donated despite the recent recession and the WISH Lions, led by President Gary Groen, want to thank everyone who helped make the event a success. The WISH Lions have donated more than $60000 in support of their annual shopping event that focuses on less fortunate youth in the Isle, Onamia and Wahkon areas. For more information on how you can become part of this small but successful Lions Club, please visit http://wishlionsmn.lionwap.org/ or stop by our monthly July meeting at 6 pm Thursday, July 9th at Izatys Clubhouse.
