This may seem odd, in view of the fact that the Lions are now lponso’ring a $75,006 building cam- paign,hut.the fact remains, that ,despite the Lions energetic desire to get the arena' completed, they have still not forgotten their ob- ligation to the rest of the com- munity." To say that the Lions have made I great contribution to the com- munity would be an understate- ment. Their past record shows that both financially and otherwise they have served Weston and district in n manner which any service club could well be proud.

The Lions glub of Weston donated the money to get the bi-weekly program off to a good start. By the Bummer of 1945 the con- tribution for the Community Va- cation Church School had increased to 8800.00. The Lions Club of Wea- ton contributed that money. In January, 1946, representatives from the Ministerial Association, the YWCA and the Lions Club dis- cussed the need for more eo-ordi- nation in recreation-the mnyor of the tow was asked to call a meets ing Ind on March Ist, 1946, the Weston Community Council came into being. The tiGneW statement for the Weston Community Council for 1946 shows: Weston Lions Club, donation to summer program, 8360.00, dona- tion re baseball, $104.15. The same statement for 1947 shows the Wes- ton Lions Club donation to hockey, 3332.50, donation to summer pro- gram, 8300.00.

Charles Bolter, then president of the senior club, toured all the local schools, explained the plans for. the for- mation of Mmup and was suc- cessful in getting some 100 chil-‘ dren, to voice their enthusiasm about the arrangements. For the second time Mr. Freedman visited Weston, this time to give the juniors their first lesson in chess. Since that time weekly meetings have been held in the new senior public school on Fridsy nights, and the enthusiasm and interest shown by members has been ‘most en- couraging to the special committee. At present s tournament is under way with 14 boys and girls who qualified taking part.
