Five Ormond-by-the-Sea Lions Club members recently traveled to Orlando to attend the 99th annual Multiple District Convention in May.
Lions Jean Cerullo, Bobbie Cheh, Aleta Dick, Greg Evans and Mary Yochum joined over 328 Lions who attended from across the state, according to a press release. During the Saturday General Session, Cheh was awarded Lion of the Year from the Diabetes and Diabetic Retinopathy Foundations.
Evans was awarded the Dr. Norma Callahan Visionary Award for his work with the foundations and received his Progressive Melvin Jones Fellow. Members enjoyed attending the many seminars offered and Cheh taught the incoming secretaries class. Third International Vice President Mark Lyon and his wife, Lyn, were the convention representatives from Connecticut.
Six OBTS Lions Club members and friends also volunteered to assist at the recent Family Renew Ice Cream Social. Cutting cakes, selling raffle tickets and dishing ice cream and toppings kept the members busy. The club also donated $250 to Family Renew.
