The Atmore Lions Club held its last meeting of the month on November 17, in the Mayson Auditorium at Atmore Community Hospital.
Lion Taylor Lee called the meeting to order and led the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag. The blessing was given by Walt Butler. Jennifer Sanders and Nancy Martin were welcomed as guests. Lion Bub Gideons introduced Past District Governor Claudia Wigglesworth who lives in Daleville. Lion Wigglesworth, who is currently the Alabama Lions Club International Foundation coordinator this year, spoke to club members about the LCIF. She said her purpose was to educate members about the Foundation and what it does. The Lions Club disaster trailer which is currently in Atmore is a result of money from the Foundation, along with two others in the state.
Two new members, John Hiebert and Talerie McGhee, were pinned and welcomed into the Atmore Lions Club.
Attendance at the meeting was 16.
