We had a young girl from the theatrical company that rents the building we hold our meetings in perform Over the Rainbow rendition. She will be playing Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz at Utah Valley State College.

Libby who has returned from a sign language mission for the LDS church spoke about her efforts to raise money so she can go to Africa and teach sign language to teachers who work with deaf children. Lion President Lynn Seely watches on.

Each third Saturday we have ladies or family night at our club house. President Lynn Seely conducting meeting.

Tonight we Honored Ann Fisher with our humanitarian award. We had our good friend Frank (City Administer) talk about service and how Ann was the epitome of service. He gave some examples of her service to the Pleasant Grove community. Below are pictures of Ann Fisher, Ann with Frank and Ann with er daughter.

February 17th Meeting; Family Night

We had the pleasure of having Dr. Norman Gardner, a blind professor of Finance at UVSC in Orem, Utah as our speaker. He spoke to us about blindness and how he handled his classes being totally blind. He was a great example of what blind people can do when given the proper training and opportunities. He shared with us that the real problem of blindness is not eing blind but the stereotypes and attitudes of the blind person as well as the stereotypes and attitudes of the public at large. It was Dr. Gardner's hope that we as Lions treat blind people as we would want to be treated and to realize that blind people can function in society as well as the average person given the proper training and opportunities.
