Adel Stage & Pavilion

At a recent meeting, the club pledged $7500 to the Adel Stage & Pavilion project sponsored by the Adel Partners Chamber of Commerce. The club is extremely pleased to donate to such a great community project! Pictured is the club donating a check to John Standley representing the Chamber. As an added bonus, play "Where's Waldo" and see if you can find Lion Luther in the photograph.

Officer Installation

It was a rowdy event but Lion Hemphill was sworn in (and sworn at by several members) at the July club meeting. Shortly after finishing his oath of office, serious charges were brought up against the new president and a trial was held. For security purposes, Lion Hemphill was placed in restraints until the trial was concluded.

Charges

Lion Reisetter provided the role as prosecutor. In this photo he is reading the extensive list of incriminating charges against the president, to the obvious agreement by fellow Lions.

Not Guilty!

After much deliberation Lion Hemphill was found not guilty but still sentenced to 11 months community service, to be served as the president of the club.
