Service Clubs spread the spirit of Christmas

Churchill Lions Club

It’s almost Christmas time and nothing says Christmas more than the Lions Christmas trees and the Lions Christmas cakes! Already our busy and dedicated Lions members have been out starting to harvest the Christmas trees for sale that are so popular every year. Every house needs one and we hope to have them available as usual at the United Service Station in Churchill, selling at $40 each. Then of course there are the Lions Christmas cakes, these are so popular that they literally sell like hot cakes and at only $17.00 each, as fast as we replenish them, they again sell out! If you don’t have one you might just miss out, as at the time of writing this there was just a few left at the Post Offi ce and the Health Centre. Lions Christmas cakes are not only incredibly tasty, but make fantastic gifts and they can be kept in the cupboard for other special times throughout the year. Continued page 7
