THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING our Lions Food Stand at the Fairfax Fall Festival!

Fairfax Lions Club - WE SERVE!

Fairfax Lions had a successful fund raiser food sale at the Fairfax Fall Festival, Saturday Oct 11. We had a fun time, and enjoyed meeting our many customers.

The weather was rainy all morning, but cleared in the afternoon. We did not have the crowds we usually see on a bright sunny day – BUT WE APPRECIATE ALL THOSE WHO STOPPED BY AND MADE A PURCHASE. ALL PROCEEDS FROM THE SALE GO DIRECTLY BACK INTO OUR COMMUNITY TO SUPPORT THOSE IN NEED.

A SPECIAL APPRECIATION: As the Fall Festival was closing down a man asked about Lions’ service projects. We mentioned that Fairfax Lions will buy 30 pairs of eyeglasses for the needy this year, at a cost of $50 each. That man reached into his pocket, gave us a $50 bill, and said, “Make that 31 pairs of eyeglasses.” That donation is in addition to others our customers graciously contributed. THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!
