Lion Frances Jones has done double duty for many years! She has been responsible for club publicity and chair of the History Committee. Frances takes the official photos of new members, speakers, honored students & teachers, and any one being honored with an award. She gets those photos into the newspapers along with a caption with accurate name identification and with many event write-ups. She works with the newspapers to provide excellent coverage of the club.
Lion Frances has put out a call for other photos and memorabilia in order to adequately document the history of the Wimberley Lions Club. This collection from meetings, picnics, Texas Lions Camp, and Market Days. Lions John Lyon, Cecil Gibson, and Dan Williams are scanning newspaper articles to include in the November 17th celebration on reaching the $3 million mark in donations. Anyone with items to be included, please send to Lion Frances.
After this collection is completed, a copy of the scanned items will be provided to the Wimberley Institute of Culture Archive Collection. This will be of value because many civic and community leaders are either Lion members or speakers at Lion meetings.
One of the means of communications for the Wimberley Lions Club. This club has about 172 members. The Wimberley Lions Club generates annual donations budget between $118,000 and $170,000 through its Market Days the first Saturday of the month, March - December.
