Lions Club news
The West Hagerstown Lions Club hosted its annual leader dog banquet on April 24. The guest speaker for the Lions Leader Dog School for the Blind was BJ Blahnik from Wisconsin. He began having visual problems at the age of 10, and now owns his own company, which works with special-needs individuals.
He brought along his leader dog, a male black Labrador named Goober, his third leader dog. He said that once he got his dog, he felt like a new person, free to go with his dog in the lead.
Lions from Multiple District 22 work closely with Wilmer Eye Institute to research and create low-vision rehabilitation programs.
The club is selling ham sandwiches and Penn Avenue Meats raffle tickets. First prize is a $100 gift card; second prize, $50; and third prize, $25. Tickets cost $1 each.
The club is still collecting food for the food bank and is expecting to award college scholarships to graduating seniors in the near future.
All Lions clubs are collecting adult and children’s eyeglasses, including sunglasses. They also are collecting hearing aids and new hearing-aid batteries.
