| A picture from the Glencoe Lions
fall fair parade float. A very creative float chair dressed
these mild mannered Lions to look like desperadoes. Without
exception they are, really, all quiet and mild mannered - so for
us in the Glencoe District Lions Club it is very funny to see
them this way - on the float they were seated in a bar, some
playing poker, others at the bar surrounded by our Glencoe
Lioness as saloon gals.
Lionism is great fun, isn't it! |
