Terry Dillon was installed as president of the Northwest Glendale
Lions Club on June 15 at Oakmont Country Club. Past District Governor
Frank Leone installed the incoming officers before a gathering of members
and spouses.
Also installed were Frank Leone as first vice president, Vincent
DeSantis as second vice president, Ross Adams for his fourth term as
secretary, and Roy Biederman as treasurer.
Directors are Thomas English, Wayne Hawkes and Bill Plumley. Don
Ainsworth as Lion Tamer is responsible for club property and Robert
Dollenmayer's duty as Tail Twister is to collect fines for the club's
social program, separate from its significant service budget.
Outgoing president Appan Subramanian thanked members for their support
and did not appear reluctant to turn over the reins of the club after two
consecutive terms. New president Dillon was glad to relinquish the
treasurer's duties after four years in that position.
Dillon, Adams and Leone were the club's delegates to Hawaii last
month, joining 20,000 other Lions for the annual Lions International
convention. Obviously a difficult assignment, they will report to the
club at tomorrow's meeting.
Host Lions' officers seated
Bob Hynes was installed as president of the Glendale Host Lions,
having served in that capacity several years ago. His officers are First
Vice President Brad Barnes, Second Vice President Marc Calderon,
Secretary Bill Nielsen and Treasurer Ted Walters, retiring president.
Directors are each responsible for particular duties: Jack King for
membership, Allyn Haycox is historian, Tom Barnes is Tail Twister, Dick
Holway chairs school projects, Ed Vancura organizes social programs and
Ingrid Slowskei in Sunshine Chair.
The Rev. Bill Bowman bears the title Sky Pilot for his duties in
giving the weekly benediction. Dave Greenbaum is chairman of the White
Cane service project. A major project is providing 100 children with
glasses.
The club meets at noon each Wednesday at Chevy Chase Country Club.
