He finds his way to a bar stool and orders a shot of Jack Daniels. After sitting there for a while, he yells to the bartender, 'Hey, you wanna hear a blonde joke?' The bar immediately falls absolutely silent. In a very deep, husky voice, the woman next to him says, 'Before you tell that joke, Cowboy, I think it is only fair, Given that you are blind, that you should know five things: 1. The bartender is a blonde girl with a baseball bat. 2. The bouncer is a blonde girl. 3. I'm a 6-foot tall, 175-pound blonde woman with a black belt in karate. 4. The woman sitting next to me is blonde and a professional weight lifter. 5. The lady to your right is blonde and a professional wrestler. Now, think about it seriously, Cowboy. Do you still wanna tell that blonde joke?' The blind cowboy thinks for a second, shakes his head and mutters, 'No...not if I'm gonna have to explain it five times. ZONE PROJECT What a great project you all chose to take part in for our Zone Project. There were a couple of the clubs that were not able to participate due to other club commitments but between the remainder of the clubs, we supplied a work force of 24 Lions to help with the event. th The event was the North Shore Special Olympics 30 Anniversary Gala Night. It was a first class event with limousine and black SUV transport from the parking area to the red carpet entry. The guests were greeted and made to feel like the special people that they are. There was Steel Pan music on the lower concourse and a roving magician to entertain everyone as they mingled in and around the lobby. Once inside, they were served drinks and snacks until the doors opened. The ceremonies themselves include entertainment and demonstrations as well as award presentations. Many of the athletes all dressed up in their finest outfits got very excited when they received their well- deserved awards. It was a very special experience. The Lions of Zone 19A2 were there to assist in every aspect of the event right from helping people to find a place to park their cars to finding a place to sit. The organizers showed their appreciation by awarding our Zone with a beautiful plaque. Their comment to me was that they couldn’t have done it without us. Thanks so much for your involvement MEDICAL STUDY ABOUT LONGEVITY A recent study has found that women who carry a little extra weight live longer than the men who mention it.

  • Extending Lions Bay Beach Park Closure Hours
    Friday, May 11, 2018 Hello Lions Bay, Residents within a certain radius of Lions Bay Beach Park are being explicitly consulted on whether to extend the beach's hours from 10 pm to 11 pm. Council would also like to know what the rest of the Village thinks too, at [email protected]. Always-a-Lions-Bayer Glen Dennison has been appointed by Council as our representative to the federal consultation on further protection of newly discovered glass sponge reefs in Howe Sound (discovered pretty much by him actually, as seen to the left). With the bottom of the Sound mostly glacial mud, these reefs are nurseries for rockfish and the entire food chain, and they filter carbon, nitrogen and silica from the water. Protection exists for previously-discovered reefs in Howe Sound and the Strait of Georgia, but until the consultation completes, be aware of the Department of Fisheries & Ocean's voluntary request-to-avoid and no-contact-fishing zones in Howe Sound, especially at Lions Bay: smack dab in front of Kelvin Grove, about 1200 meters off Lions Bay Beach, and off Brunswick Point. I'm not sure how these areas will eventually be protected from casual prawners and crabbers who may not be fully cognaisant of DFO Fishery Notices, but one thing at a time. The new areas are discussed here. Our MVRD regional district overlords have a lot of resources to deliver projects. One project that might be quite useful to Lions Bay as the Spring growing season burgeons is their www.growgreenguide.ca. Check it out.

Metro Vancouver continues to regulate the discharge of non-domestic liquid waste from industrial, commercial and institutional sources to sewer through the Sewer Use Bylaw No. 299. The Bylaw protects the environment, sewer workers, sewer infrastructure, and taxpayers and is continually being updated to improve the quality of wastewater entering the sewer from non-domestic dischargers. Industrial Treatment Fees Amendment In 2014, Metro Vancouver amended the Bylaw to incorporate a revised method of calculating industrial treatment fees that is based on peak rather than average discharges (creating incentive to reduce peak discharges) and adjusts unit rates based on the capacity available at the respective treatment plants.

  • District 19A Newsletter October 2017
    DISTRICT 19A.BC.CANADA October, 2017 District website: www.district19a.com “THE POWER OF WE” Greeting from your District Governor Lion Grace Ahoy fellow lions, lionesses and leos, October is a busy month for our district lions, lionesses and leos! Not only that they have their own clubs’ service projects to work on, they also targeted the recruitment of members under the Membership Growth Month. There was the MD19 Annual Convention being held in Surrey on the 12th to the 14th. Then we had our own 19A Centennial Leo Convention in which the Leos were working so hard to make this Convention a milestone event. With the hard work of the lions, this month 22 members joined our Lions organization with net gain of 5! Our total membership has climbed up to 1,153 from 1,141. with net gain of 12 members. The total hours that were served by lions (excluding leos and lionesses) have been over 10,000! This is incredible and thanks so much for your contributions. All DGE received gifts from International President at the Convention in July. There was a box with 18 packs of “words of wisdom” that I think it is worth to share with you each month till the end of June. Vancouver Diamond Lions Club and Lions Clubs International have jointly raised an incredible C$293,460 for the Canadian Cancer Society. With the new cancer screening and diagnostic equipment at the Richmond Hospital Laboratory, residents of Richmond, Delta, South Vancouver, Powell River and the area of the Vancouver International Airport would benefit substantially.

    Vancouuer Social Impressions: Vancouver PATRICIA LATKIN 860 N. Lake Shore Drive, Apt. 2lJ, Chicago, IL 606II We flew. We drove. We trained. We ferried. From across the Lions's Gate Bridge in North Vancouver. From across the continent-Bob Hunting from Orono, Maine and Florence Wills from Miami-from across the ocean-Mollie Thomas from Hampshire and Valerie Peyman from Kent. We had to get to Vancouver. "The distance is nothing, when one has a motiue." The motive: the eighth Annual General Meeting of the Jane Austen Society of North America, September 26-28 in Vancouver, British Columbia at the Hotel Georgia. Programme: The Watsons. We Chicagoans boarded at O'Hare. the better to languish on the runway for reasons not specified. No air-conditioning. No food service.
