Greetings Keyser Lions!

Summer is flying by. Hope you have been able to enjoy it.

Our first meeting in June was on the 5th at University Place. We discussed the results of the user

satisfaction survey we took earlier this year. Our second meeting was on the 22nd at University

Place. Zone Chair Lion Rob Bright swore in our new officers for the 2014-2015 year. You can see

the full list of new officers on the other page of the newsletter.

Our only meeting in July was on the 17th at University Place. After eating a delicious meal, we

toured the facilities where it was made and learned a great deal about the food services at Potomac

State. At the time this newsletter was prepared details of the program for the two August meetings

were not available.

On September 4th we will meet at the West End Park at 6:00 pm for our Annual Picnic. Be sure to

bring the whole family and a dish to share. On September 18th we will meet at University Place at

6:30 pm. Our special guest will be District Governor Doug Long. Please make every effort to at-

tend this meeting to hear about happenings throughout District 29-I.

The District 29-I Annual Conference will take place on October 17th and 18th at Canaan Valley

Resort. District Governor Doug Long is counting on our support to make this conference a success.

The registration fee for the conference is $50 and is due by October 4th. The room rate at the lodge

is $109 per night. Cabins are also available starting at $144 per night for a 2 bedroom cabin or

$164 for a 3 bedroom cabin. To make room reservations, call Melody at 304-866-4121, ext.

92685, or Beth at 304-866-4121, ext. 92712 (Canaan Valley Resort). Hotel reservations must be

made by September 16, 2014.

More details about the Conference and what type of support the Keyser Lions will be asked to pro-

vide will be forthcoming. In the mean time, the Conference organizers are asking each club to

bring items for a silent auction. The silent auction is one of the ways to cover some of the costs of

the Conference. Please be thinking about what we could contribute.
