He has lived and worked in McCloud is also instrumental in Grand Junction since graduating from bringing in new members to the club, Colorado Mesa University in 1997.

In addition to helping almost every non–profit orga- nization, medical organization and historical organization in the valley, the Lions Club has come up with some unique ideas at improving the commu- nity. Two Rivers Plaza was the Lions Club project and the Riverfront Trail System was originally founded and funded by Grand Junction Lions Club members as well as improvements to the seating facilities at Uranium Downs (now the Mesa County Fairgrounds) and Lincoln Park were substantial- ly begun and paid for by the Grand Junction Lions Club. Today they have nearly 150 mem- bers, with Lions who break their necks for 30 days a year during carnival ticket sales and the Lions Carnival. It is a great tradition revered by all the citi- zens in this community who regard the Grand Junction Lions Club as the pre- miere service in this community. The new members coming into the Lions Club have filled the committees and worked hard following the legacy of those before. The attitude and spirit of today’s Lions are as determined, yet frivolous, as our forefathers.There is no club in the world that has more fun or works harder than this one. There is no club in the world that has donated more money to its community in such a happy fashion. We have a reputation worldwide and a considerable reputa- tion in this community. Sometimes it isn’t all that perfect, but people always give us the benefit of the doubt because of the great good that we do.
