Newburgh Lions will host a cookout (hot dogs, brats, hamburgers, baked goods, soft drinks) on Saturday, April 17 at the Newburgh Schnucks grocery store on Bell Road/SR66.  This event will be in conjunction with a yard sale sponsored by the local Kiwanis Club.  Since the yard sale goes from 6 a.m. - 3 p.m., we will sell baked goods early in the morning and sell grilled foods beginning at 11:00 a.m.  Funds will benefit our "Fishing for Fun" day for Warrick County Life Skills Special Education Students in May.

Please come and support this club in their efforts to raise funds for the community. The attachment gives more details.

     Can you believe DG Steve Porenski has only 3 more issues of his Newsletter and 3 months as District Governor? He will then join the long list of PDGS’. DG Steve will still have duties as a PDG, but he will also have more time visiting his daughter, grandchildren …and playing with his trains! 
     DG Steve and (wife/secretary) Gerry have toured Indiana from east to west and north to south. And his job will continue visiting District 25-E2 Clubs until June 30, 2010. We all look forward to visits from DG Steve. He has much information to share with our Clubs.
     There are still many jobs to be accomplished in District 25-E2 before June 30, 2010. Mentoring of clubs; rebuilding clubs; increasing membership; personal appearances; State Convention in South Bend, Indiana. Region, Zone Chairpersons, and Guiding Lions will also continue their visits, keeping all clubs up-to-date on what needs to be done. i.e., club elections and that “wonderful” PU-101 which is very important.  
     One new club has been organized in District 25-E2 this year. (Georgetown Lions Club) Hopefully, there will be another before the end of the year. If not, there will be one in 2010 – 2011. If you have an idea of a good location to form a new Lions Club contact your Region Chair or District Governor so they may pass the information along to the MERL team.  
     Have you ever visited a club just to show your support? Think about it! Your directory lists all clubs, their officers and meeting night. Take at least 2 other Lions with you and earn 150 Points for your club as well as having a fun evening with other Lions.  
     Support other Lions Projects! I don’t know about you but I am already looking forward to the start of Lions Club Pancake Breakfasts; Fish Fries; Booths at the
Fairs; Golf Scrambles, and much more. Be sure to let me know what Fund Raisers you are planning and I will send it out to all Lions on the E-mail.  
     VDG John Wilcox (Kathy) will take over as District Governor of 25-E2 for the 2010 -2011 term effective July 1, 2010. VDG John will be going to the International Convention in Sydney, Australia (July 1 – 12, 2010) where he will be sworn in as 25-E2 District Governor. As is the Lions way ……. Lions will step forward to help VDG John and the District have a successful 2010 – 2011. District Governor is a very demanding job, just ask any PDG.
