LIONS SPREAD CHRISTMAS CHEER

This year the members of the Lions club of Castries held its annual Christmas Party in the comunity of Bexon.  Bexon is one of the communities that were devasted by the passage of Hurrican Tomas on
October 30, 2010.     The children of that community had their homes and belongings washed way by  flood waters as well as strong gusty winds.   This year over two hundred childresn were treated.    The Lions are appreciative of the  support for this project given by our many corporate sponsors including, Dominoes pizza, Flavurite icecream, UWI Open Campus, Mrs and Mrs Barlette of New York, Mr Donovan Peter Henry of New York, as well as teh contributions of Lions and thier friends and families.     It is contributions like these that make the work of the Lions easier.




The Lions continuied to spread Christmas cheer when they served the residents of St Lucy's Home and the Sisters of Mercy Home at Hospital Road with Christmas lunch.  The homeless in environs of Castries were not forgotten as they too enjoyed lunch served by the Lions on December 26.
