Mike Jones is a busy Lion.  He serves two Lions Clubs.  Mike joined the Wimberley Lions Club even though it was some distance from his home at Canyon Lake.  He reliably works parking lot number 1 starting at 6:00 a.m. every Market Day.  Mike is also a founding member of the Canyon Lake North Shore Lions Club founded last fall.  He is actively involved with that club.  He has sponsored five kids for this summer's Texas Lions Camp, four from Mountain Valley Middle School and one from Rebecca Creek Elementary. 


Mike is a prostate cancer survivor and is sponsoring a fishing tournament to fund prostate cancer education.  The information is below.  If you can't participate in the tournament, consider going to the fish fry.


See you there!
