An update from the Seekonk Lions Club.

Posted

Hello everybody. This is George Junior here. Before I get into my Seekonk Lions update, please remember to visit our new Website and Facebook page for the latest information and events of the club.

With that being said, how you all doing? Well, we are doing…and doing great! We are celebrating our 65th year as a Lions Chapter here in Massachusetts. Sixty-Five Years. That is a long time. And the Seekonk Lions Club is a strong as ever. Look at all the events we have had this Lionistic year.

• A tribute and fundraiser establishing the David A. Pitassi Memorial Music Fund for kids who wish to further a career in music. The best!
• The annual Octoberfest held in conjunction with Chris Gasbarro. All those free tasty samples and fine German cuisine. The best!
• Our world-famous clam boils at the Seekonk Rod and Gun Club. You ask anyone. The best!
• A Christmas bash at the Grist Mill Restaurant with local celebrity Bombshell Betty belting out the tunes! The best!
• The Eleventh Annual Doug Allan Memorial fishing derby at the Grist Mill Restaurant Pond. The 65 kids and parents caught a large number of fish and reaped the rewards at American Legion banquet. The best!
• The 26th annual Taste of the Town. Sixteen local food establishments dishing out their best for the patrons. Then the liquor distributers who bring the latest offerings for tasting and enjoying notes and aromatics for those aficionados. The best!
• Our 34th annual golf tournament now playing at Ledgemont Country Club. What a beautiful day on a great course with a great bunch of golfers. Local scratch and itchy golfer Len Silva of Seekonk taking home the trophy this year! The best!

As you can see, we packed a lot in one year. Been doing this for sixty-five years. We plan to continue to be the best. To be the best for our members, to be the best for this community, and to be the best period!
Enjoy the summer. See you the next Lionistic year 2023-2024.
