a TH HI EE C7 Summ, NTI Cr, 10 -- PORT PERRY STAR -- Tuesday, June 26, 1984 Can you imagine sell- ing 450 hot dogs within an hour in downtown Blackstock? It's easy when you've got a captive market, that is, when your consumers are as hot dog crazy as the kids are at Cartwright Cent- ral Public School. The newly formed Lioness Club of Black- stock and District was responsible for the hot dog days at CCPS and even though the club only managed three of the days before the year was over, Lioness Presi- dent Chris Cliff will be able to donate nearly $200 to the school. The money is destined to buy the students more badly needed computer soft- ware. Which isn't a bad donation at all, especi- ally when you consider that the Lioness Club has only been in busin- ess since March. The wives of several Blackstock Lion's Club members had been thinking about starting their own Lioness Club for some time but it took them until this spring to clear away the red tape and get their own club going. '"The wives were com- Chris Cliff, Lioness president. ing out and helping at many of their husband's fundraising events and we kind of felt like we would like to know each other better and help out too', Mrs. Cliff says. The hot dog project is the first the club has undertaken and will continue again in the Fall. Members are also hoping to organize a fun fair in November, with funds going back into the school for whatever is needed. "The school really doesn't have a parents' association so it was an obvious project to take on', the new president says. The Lioness Club takes in an area includ- ing Blackstock, Caes- area, Nestleton and Port Perry. Despite Port Perry's larger Lion's Club, a Lioness Club has never taken hold. Mrs. Cliff isn't sure why, but says any Port Perry women who want to join the Black- stock club are welcome. '""We don't want to turn away anybody who wants to work," she chuckles. There are 14 Lioness Clubs in a district en- compassing Haliburton, Lindsay and Ajax, com- pared to about 40 Lion's Clubs in the same area. The discrepancy is due to the newness of the Lioness organization - the first club was introd- uced in 1975. "Some Lions had auxiliaries before but they didn't do anything on their own. The women merely helped out the men", she re- calls. The Lioness Club, on the other hand, is a separate and distinct club on its own, with its own meetings (twice a month in the Blackstock Rec Centre) and its own projects. Although the two clubs often work together on fundraising efforts, the men have no say over what the women do. Still, a liason officer from the Lions sits in at most Lioness meetings, just to make sure projects and dates don't overlap. Becoming a Lioness is a relatively simple task. A candidate must be New Lioness Club tackles first assignment sponsored by a Lioness member and must attend two meetings. That's all. You don't even have to be married or related to a Lion to join. Right now the new Blackstock club has 16 members (the Black- stock Lions have 22) and new members are always welcome. For more information, call Chris Cliff at 986-5278.
