Athens

Group lauds supporters

Dear Editor:

On May 30, the Athens Lions Club and the Learn-to-Read Council of Athens sponsored one of the Lions’ now famous pork chop dinners. The event was more than successful. We had fun working together, even washing the potatoes and the dirty dishes, and serving our supporters who bought tickets to eat the delicious pork dinner with all the fixings.

Learn-to-Read would like to thank all Athens Lions Club members for supporting this much-needed fundraiser. We particularly would like to thank Roger Andrews, Jack Skipper, Ken Hannah, Lynn Threet, Jack and Dean Sneed. Thanks to all of their efforts, we raised funds that will help our organization continue to work toward eliminating adult illiteracy in Athens and Limestone County.

The slogan for all Lions Clubs is “We Serve.” The Athens Lions Club is certainly a fine example of this motto.

Sincerely,

Patricia Hatchett, president

Learn-to-Read Council of Athens and Limestone County Inc.
