May 2009


King Lion Suraj, Donna and The Travel Center organized a fundraising cruise on board the new Mariner of the Seas to the Mexican Riviera in March 2009.  Members of the Fallon Lions, Sparks Greenbrae, Reno Arch and Ruby Mountain Clubs got together and raised $2100 for the Student Speakers Foundation.  Next year, we are looking at an Alaskan cruise for some more fun-fundraising for fellow Lions, their friends and family.
