PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE

An image has stuck with me. It comes

from Sept 30, 2010. It was about 9am. I was in

the Markham Fair Lions food booth. Glenn

Schick was cooking breakfast sandwiches for the

early shift of volunteers. He had a smile on his

face. I asked him why he was smiling. He said "I

was just thinking, you know, I've done this every

year for twenty-five years". Wow! I thought. Why

does this image stick? Because, for me, it is a

vivid reminder about the value of our long term

members and how much they have contributed

to our club. The combined service for our three retiring members is one hun-

dred and three years. (Bill Ilott 39, Jim Wicks 38 , and Glenn Schick 26)

These three Lions personify the kind of commitment that makes our club

such a winner. THANK YOU, THANK YOU!! And thanks Tom and Fred for

the nice tribute you delivered for them at our June 16th dinner meeting.

Now that my term as President has come to an end, I can reflect on

my year in the position. I have really come to appreciate this as a wonderful

club. We are successful because we serve by giving. We give money. We give

work for free, and we give of ourselves to our relationship with each other

and that results in a very enjoyable social life together. As for the money, our

efforts have resulted in charitable donations of thirty-five thousand dollars,

which is more than our goal. As we all know, our heritage and tradition is

helping the blind. Forty percent of our charity donations went toward help-

ing the blind. Twenty-five percent went to youth related charity, ten percent

to community, ten percent to health services and five percent went towards

Lions international relief. We did lots of good work for the community: salva-

tion army kettles, food bank, school barbecue, vision and hearing screening,

lung cancer tulip distribution, park clean up, seniors lunch at Cedarcrest,

Shania day, Markhaven barbecue, hospital barbecue. We got some good pub-

licity. We had the best newsletter in our district.

We added new members. And best of all we had fun social events. It was a

great year for me and, from the bottom of my heart I would like to thank eve-

rybody for their help in giving us a good year!

I welcome Bill Dewberry into the role of President for the 2011-2012

term. Bill has FORTY YEARS of service in the Lions organization. Our club

is so fortunate to have Bill as our new President. Bill, I pledge my support to

you and your Executive committee!

EDITORIAL

Mark Carrington

As we come to the end of the Li-

ons year I can say that it has

been a lot of fun and a learning

experience for me performing the

duties of Editor for the Bulletin,

(Jungle Talk). There was much to

learn working with a new soft-

ware program, the writing of Edi-

torials and in general the design-

ing of and putting all the infor-

mation together in the actual

Bulletin itself.

I thought it would be a good idea this past year to published

the Birthdays and Anniversaries of the members as they are

celebrated each month, in addition to all the other activities

that are happening within the club.

It is pleasing to see that as a result of all the good quality

work that has gone into producing this Bulletin through the

many years, we have been rewarded. This year is no excep-

tion. We have been awarded the trophy for producing the best

Bulletin in District A16. This is a tremendous achievement

and we look forward to winning this award many more times.

I would like to thank all the members in the Club and the Bul-

letin Committee for all their contributions to the Bulletin to

make it into the great quality that it is. I am sure there is

room for more improvements to be made.

I would like to congratulate the outgoing Lion President Larry

for the very successful year he has had in leading the club. To

the in-coming Lion President Bill Dewberry and the new Exec-

utive we wish them well and much success in the year ahead.

As Editor of the Bulletin I look forward to the coming year

with continued success producing the Bulletin.

Quote: “A life spent making mistakes is not only

more honourable but more useful than a life spent

doing nothing.”

THE LIGHTER SIDE

4 husbands were sitting at the waiting room in a hospi-

tal waiting for their wives to give birth. Soon, a nurse

came out from the delivery room and told the first dad-

dy: "Congratulations, you've twins!". "Oh!..... maybe it's

just a coincidence" said the daddy, "as I'm working at

the Petronas Twin Towers".

Then another nurse came out of the room and told the

second daddy: "Congratulations, you've triplets!"

"Wooow!, this is a coincidence, too" said the second dad-

dy. "I am working for 3M Corporation".

A while later, another nurse appeared and told the

third daddy: "Congratulations! your wife got quadru-

plets"

"Thanks God. Perhaps this is also a coincidence". "I

work at Four Seasons Hotel!".

Meanwhile, the fourth daddy-to-be was becoming very

worried. All the 3 daddies asked him: "Why do you look

so worried?". He answered, "...uhmmm.... I'm working

at Seven-Eleven!"

*********************************

A man is sitting in a bar when a beautiful woman walks

up and whispers in his ear, "I'll do anything you want

for 50 bucks."

He puts his drink down and starts going through his

pockets. He pulls out a ten, two five's, a twenty and ten

ones.

He thrusts the wadded up money into the woman's

hand and says, "Here...paint my house."

*********************************

A man walked in to a bar after a long day at work. As

he began to drink his beer, he heard a voice say seduc-

tively "You've got great hair!" The man looked around

but couldn't see where the voice was coming from, so he

went back to his beer.

A minute later, he heard the same soft voice say "You're

a handsome man!" The man looked around, but still

couldn't see where the voice was coming from.

When he went back to his beer, the voice said again

"What a stud you are!" The man was so baffled by this

that he asked the bartender what was going on.

The bartender said "Oh, it's the nuts--they're compli-

mentary."

*********************************

One day in court, the prosecuting lawyer asked the

farmer on the witness stand, ""At the scene of the acci-

dent, did you tell the policeman you had never felt bet-

ter in your

life?""

""That's right."" The farmer replied.

""Well, then, how is it that you are now claiming you

were seriously injured when my client's auto hit your

wagon?"" The farmer explained. ""When the policeman

arrived, he went over to my horse, who had a broken

leg, and shot him. Then he went over to Rover, my dog,

who was all banged up, and

shot him. When he asked me how I felt, I just thought,

under the circumstances, it was a wise choice of words

to say I've never felt better in my life."""

*********************************

A woman was standing before the bedroom mirror, ad-

miring herself in her new outfit before going out.

She posed this way and that in front of her husband,

who looked on with disinterest, and remarked, "Your

bum is the size of a 3-burner barbecue!"

Later that evening, tucked up and cozy in bed he leaned

over, tapped her on the shoulder, and said, "How about

it?” She replied "No thanks, It's not worth me lighting

the whole Barbecue just for half a sausage!"

*********************************

A woman and a baby were in the doctor's examining

room, waiting for the doctor to come in for the baby's

first exam. The doctor arrived, and examined the baby,

checked his weight, and being a little concerned, asked

if the baby was breast-fed or bottle-fed.

'Breast-fed,' she replied...

'Well, strip down to your waist,' the doctor ordered.

She did. He pinched her nipples, pressed, kneaded, and

rubbed both breasts for a while in a very professional

and detailed examination.

Motioning to her to get dressed, the doctor said, 'No

wonder this baby is underweight. You don't have any

milk.'

'I know,' she said, 'I'm his Grandma, but I'm glad I

came.'

The End of an Era

Lions Bill Illott 39 years, Jim wicks 38

years and Glenn Schick 26 years recently

retired from the Markham Lions Club

with a combined service of some 103

years. These Lions participated in many

projects and served in many capacities

while with the Markham Lions, selling of

flowers, working at the Food Booth at

the Markham Fair, sorting food at the

Food Bank, and selling of Fireworks just

to name a few. These Lions were a dedi-

cated group who contributed and made

the Markham Lion Club what it has

grown to be today. They were recognized

and presented with a collage of photos at

the Regular Meeting on June 16, 2011

and given a resounding send off for their

commitment and dedication to Lionism.

They will certainly be missed and we

sincerely wished them all well in their

future endeavours.

In the Photo: Sitting, Lion Bill Illott and his wife Helen; on the right standing, Lion Jim Wicks and his wife Barbara; on the left Lion Glenn Schick and his wife Joanne.

Thank You: Purina Walk for Dog Guides sent out a huge thank you to

the organizers and volunteers for their hard work and support this year.

The growth and success of the Purina Walk for Dog Guides is critical in

allowing them to keep up with the growing demand for specially trained

Dog Guides.

Staffing Change: There has been a change in Management at Purina

Walk for Dog Guides. Mr. Dave Nash is now the new Manager of Purina

Walk for Dog Guides. Dave has many years of experience at the Lions

Foundation of Canada in many different roles; from fundraising and marketing to Client Ser-

vices and his most recent role as Event and Volunteer Manager. Dave will be working closely

with the Walk Team including Natalie Moncur, Communications Manager, Gord Settle, Mar-

keting and Graphics Manager and the amazing Accounting staff to get your feedback, answer

questions and make next years Walk even better.

LIONS INTERNATIONAL

Rebuilding Lives Following Disasters

We Lions have a special dedication to providing relief and rebuilding lives in our communities for as

long as it takes. In Haiti, we are rebuilding schools and a nurses training program, as well as houses.

Most recently, we committed US$410,000 to help the Southern United States. And we continue to re-

ceive donations for Japan, with more than US$16 million being mobilized. Relief efforts elsewhere al-

so remain ongoing. All of these projects would not be possible without the generous support of our in-

ternational family of Lions. And other organizations are taking note of our relief efforts. Bausch

+Lomb donated US$100,000 for Japan and is encouraging their employees to also do so by matching

donations. The Japan-America Society of Dallas/Fort Worth (Texas, USA) also contributed

US$100,000 for Japan.

Pediatric Cataract Initiative (PCI) Awards Grant

Bausch + Lomb and LCIF awarded the Tianjin Eye Hospital a US$150,000 grant to finance a special-

ized, pediatric cataract training initiative. The grant is made possible through funding from Bausch +

Lomb, and the grant will be used for training and education, equipment, and screenings. Earlier this

year, PCI also issued two $50,000 research grants.

New Web Site

Some features of our new Web site includes stories of individuals, partners and donors impacted by

the Foundation's work; a share feature on every page to be able to email or post on personal social me-

dia sites; an online MJF application; improved method for online donations; and a special section for

you, our Lions members and LCIF coordinators. The site will launch in all languages on July 8. The

address remains the same- www.lcif.org.

Lions Quest

More than 12 million children have benefited from this life skills program. And that's why reaching

even more children was another priority. We held trainings and created a How-to-Kit to help Lions'

expansion efforts. Just last month Indonesia began this program. I'm happy to say it's now in six new

countries, for a total of 66 countries. At this time, there are more than 20 countries ready to start

this program-the only world program focused on social and emotional education.

Activating our Volunteer Coordinator Structure

To strengthen Lions' engagement with LCIF, new fundraising goals were set, with district and multi-

ple district coordinators helping lead these efforts. Several new resources were created for our coordi-

nators. Several Webinars were held to provide updates to our coordinators and to encourage them to

work closely and effectively with our DG Teams. Most exciting is the fact that all efforts are paying

off. Donations for this year are up by US$10.5 million, or 33 percent! Thanks go out to all Lions for

their continued support and dedication to helping LCIF continue to be the #1 NGO worldwide.
